: Last night the dwarf who is our prime minister made a pretty boring speech. Apparently were sending 2000 troops to East Timor. Goody, we are leading the International peacekeeping force, sure, we've had plenty of experience since Vietnam...

: For anyone who doesn't know, the first country to ever send troops into East Timor was Australia during WW2. Sure, we were there to protect the Eas Timorese, yes that'll do. Of course Japan was next since they loved to kick the crap ot everybody, one small country beat China to a pulp, that is hell funny.

: Apparently the leader of the force has had plenty of experience. He must be pretty old, all we did in Operation Desert Storm and the Gulf war was stay behind the front lines just in case the US ran out of pawns. The last time Australia even went to battle was Vietnam I think.

: Is it just me or is this whole peace keeping idea going to fall to bits...

: -Sunflash
You guys went to Vietnam too? Gee, I thought only the USA was so full of itself as to think they can win any battle. Well, I'm sure they still do. The leaders have been going roudn the twist for way too long.
If peacekeeping creates more Vietnams, I hope it does fall to pieces.
