Big Deal
After several months of trying to implicate Howard in the Abu Ghaib Left Wing Extravaganza the Howard haters think they have a victory and that Australia cares.
Australian reader Arthur Scotsdale puts the episode into perspective when he says;
SO now the big issue is when Prime Minister John Howard first learned of the prisoner abuse scandal at Abu Ghraib. Fine. But could we also please be told when he first learned that Kennedy had been assassinated? And could he come clean and tell us when he first learned how babies are made? These questions are all of approximately equal relevance to the price of fish, or anything else.

When he knew means bugger all to me. Australians weren’t involved nor could they have prevented it so why the constant bitching from the Labor party. Maybe they, Labor, could come clean on when Goff Whitlam knew that the TNI and militia were going to attack in East Timor. That pertained directly to Australian involvement, or lack there of, which could have and should have prevented the deaths of 5 journalists and thousands of East Timorese. Their blood is on Whitlam’s and Labor party hands.
Can Labor tell us about any prisoner abuses that came out of Desert Strom and when Bob Hawke knew about them?
It’s amazing that with all this whining labor have managed to drop dramatically in the polls. No-one cares when we knew, it’s irrevelant when we knew, unless of course labor are trying to claim that Australia was involved.
