We have US operations and facilities in the Northern Territory. If Iranian intelligence showed that these were being used to aid the American assault on Iran in any way, they'd have every right to destroy them. We could be a legitimate target. If during the early days of this despicable war we're already thinking of aiding Arab gulf states ruled by dictator families put there by the US, we are already active in this conflict, not just there for defensive purposes (according to the lame explanation we are being given by our government).
I believe many Australians would not support a draft but others would, PLUS we would be blasted by war propaganda (which we already are). I'd like to see all those older men who are so pro-war go and enlist and leave our young people alone.
