Kudos to PM Howard for standing up to Mr Hitler...er Mr Annan.

Aussie, UK, and US forces are doing everything possible to limit Iraqi civilian deaths. Too bad Saddam and his minions are not doing the same for Iraqi civilians

Aussie troops over the years have been noble fighters and have taken their share of casualties in wars...esp in the Pacific Theater in WW II.

If any of you are in the Wash DC area.....there used to be a store in the National Mall (near JW Marriott, I think) where they sold Aussie goods. It would be a nice time to buy some Aussie goods

Man, after reading this, I wanna eat a Vegemite sandwich. Kudos to Aussies and PM Howard

Nothing funnier than watching an Americans face after their first bite of a vegemite sandwich:P

As an Aussie who likes Vegemite you need to understand something about it. The english equivalent is called Marmite btw. It's very salty and the way to eat it is to butter some toast and take a small amount on a knife and lightly dab it on. Very small amounts so it doesn't overwhelm you. At best its sort of like a flavouring enhancement nothing more. You can use it on crackers as well. Regardless its an aquired taste and most get it while growing up.
