Tell the US and Iraq to behave
I think Australia needs to tell the US to behave in Iraq. There has been so much torture in Iraq since the US and co, including us went in. White phosphorus which is a pretty horrible weapon by all accounts, there are death squads and of course countless secret and not so secret torture camps. At least some in the US are doing something about it.
We are implicitly supporting all this as a nation by keeping our mouths shut and the troops there. We are adding legitimacy to the conduct of this war or peace keeping or whatever you call it. I’m not saying we should pull our troops out overnight, but we need to do something to stop supporting these heinous acts.
