Our Own Plan for Iraq
Our Own Plan for IraqSTOP PRESSYour petition was delivered to John Howard by Louise Barry and Sam McMillan the week before the federal election. Following this, the new Prime Minister Kevin Rudd announced that he intends to bring home the Australian combat troops from Iraq in the middle of next year. This is great news and we look forward to the new Prime Minister clearly articulating his entire plans. We will keep you posted. The significant numbers below clearly demonstrate that this remains a hot issue within the Australian community. Dear Prime Minister, For years your Government has adopted the Bush administration's Iraq policy as our own, even as that policy has repeatedly failed. With Australian troops still at risk and the situation in Iraq deteriorating, Australia urgently needs an independent Iraq policy. We ask that you announce a plan for a new way forward, including a clearly defined exit strategy for Australia in Iraq. New target - 70,000! 69,546 have joined this campaign - help us get to 70,000.  We have achieved 99.35% of our goal. Let’s keep going!  |
