	Australia leads support for military action - smh.com.au
		While 39 per cent of Britons were in favour of UN-backed military action against Iraq and 10 per cent supported unilateral action, only 41 per cent were opposed to military action under any circumstances, and 10 per cent said they didn't know.
		With the US claiming to have proof Iraq is being secretive about its alleged weapons programs, and the allied military build-up in the Gulf continuing, the poll also found most people in almost all the countries thought a military showdown was imminent.
		But only in Australia and the US did most people say their country should support action if it proceeded - 89 per cent of Australians expected a war with Iraq and 53 per cent said Australia should back the war if it broke out.

	The risk of an Indonesian military attack against Australia - Military Photos
		The subject of this assessment is the risk of a military conflict between Indonesia and Australia.
		Australia’s sea, air and land forces are adequately capable of dealing with an Indonesian invasion.
		A substantial attack upon Australia with the objective of causing significant damage, but without the occupation of territory would be substantially easier to undertake, as the logistic problems with moving and supporting a large ground deployment across the sea-air gap is avoided.

	Military Funerals in Australia
		When Sir Philip Sidney was buried in 1586 the troop who accompanied the cortege to the ship at Flushing, for the conveyance of his body to London, "trailed their swords and muskets in the dust".
		At the state funeral in London there were in attendance "300 citizens trained for war, all holding their weapons reversed.", Captain Venn, a well-known military writer of the seventeenth century, refers to "pikes trailing reversed" at the burial of a private soldier.
		When pipers first became a feature of Australian memorial services is unclear, but with the significant size of Australia's expatriate Scottish community in the early decades of the 20th century, represented by several "Scottish" battalions in the Militia, the presence of a piper probably became established during the 1920s.

		During the same period, Australia has grown significantly in terms of global strategic influence, both because of its world-class defence and intelligence capabilities and because of its political-economic growth, despite the fact that other regional states have themselves grown substantially in terms of their own defence/strategic capabilities.
		Australia has, since 1985, been the conciliator between the US and New Zealand, to the point where some New Zealand officials now believe that the problem has been resolved (it has not) and where some US officials also believe that the problem is not worth reconsidering.
		Australia’s Armed Forces have demonstrated that they are of a professional caliber to match those of the US, and therefore interoperability issues are of less concern than for most countries’ forces.

		In responce to australia being uninvadeable that is not true, its just a undesireable place to invade.
		If you are worried about 'international public opinion', keep in mind that a mine is not a really effective weapon for invading another country, stealing their natural resources, and enslaving their people.
		I doubt that anybody in the entire world is worried that Australia is going to invade them, steal their natural resources, and enslave their people.

	War On Terror Fabricated - Australia's Top Military Analyst
		Unfortunately, until today, the news media in Australia are still not allowed to mention what the much of the rest of the world already also suspects: that 911 was an 'inside' jub.
		The reasons we doubted the genuinenss of the 'war of terror' was due in large part to Australia's top military analyst: Lt. Col. Lance Collins.
		Collins resigned his position in our Defence Department last year because of massive fabrications of military intelligence assessments and data to fit the Bush Administration's political agendas.

		Australia's military role in the war on Iraq will be Lilliputian.
		During the Gulf War, a senior figure in the Hawke Ministry suggested that even if Australia sent every aircraft, ship, tank and soldier to the Gulf, it would be less of a contribution to the war effort than the role of the "joint facilities" in Australia.
		The Financial Review (25/1/91) reported that Australia described the role of the joint facilities as its major contribution to the war during discussions with the other members of the multi-national force in the Gulf.
