Publicly available documents indicate that, if chemical weapons outlawed after WW1 were not dropped from aeroplanes, it was only because the means of delivery had yet to be perfected (gas shells were used by groundbased artillery). Churchill strongly advocated the use of chemical weapons: I do not understand this squeamishness about the use of gas, he stated. I am strongly in favour of using poisoned gas against uncivilised tribes.
TE Lawrence wrote a letter to the Times that was very critical of British behaviour in Mesopotamia, it could just as easily been written to Tony Blair 80 years later.
He wanted to bomb them with it to "instill a lively terror" (his words) but couldn't because the technology did not exist, so yes, kind of.
His efforts during WW2 are more notable in this instance for the culmination of that era .... the Nuremburg Tribunals which lead to the UN Charter & international law which Howard (who has never seen war) among others have dismantled.
Churchill selected Arthur 'bomber' Harris in command of the operation. Harris wrote: "The Arab and the Kurd now know what real bombing means in casualties and damage. Within 45 minutes a full-size village can be practically wiped out and a third of the inhabitants killed or injured by four or five machines. Harris achieved this effect by combining large blast-bombs & then sowing 1000s phosphorus bombs into buildings. This is an extreme form of terrorism, a WMD on any reasonable definition.
I haven't heard the Opposition parties say they are going to do anything about these laws if they get elected.. they probably agree with them, like everything else?
What's incredible is this was posted back in November, I stumbled across it by happenstance just now in a week where this exact scenario is playing out. A Man is charged for giving an unusable Sim Card to another man. A component which was not in any used in the failed attacks.
This is like you loaning your car to someone - he drives past the scene of an accident an you get thrown in jail!
What we consider to be a democracy and free country has slowly , subtlely deteriorated into a dictatorship and communism, in essence. We havent noticed it, but our freedom is slowly being leeched away. We cant even travel into our OWN city , simply because all these politicans are scared for their own safety. Not for OUR safety. No, THEIR safety. They're childish cowards and they are evil. Rebellion to overthrow governments globally who violate our freedom, is imminent.
Austalia has had a wonderful PM in the form of John Howard. He has done more for this country than any other before him. The very fact that he has stayed in power for over 11 years is testament to that fact alone.
Nothing in this video is untrue. Howard like Blair & Bush has done more to damage & democracy democratic freedoms than any other Australian PM. His tenure hasn't been all bad, but I should remind you that even Hitler built Hospitals & Motorways. You should also be aware that criticism of bad policy is democratic. Defending the man because you like him isn't.
This man is arguably the WORST PM in Australian history! Jeez that crackpot Mark Latham was 100 times better than this leech on humanity.
Fingers crossed that interest rates go through the roof prior to the next election - cos that seems the only way Howard lovers will vote him outta office. The fact he has committed so many lies and crimes (illegal wars = war crimes = imprisonment!) seems not to phase many voters unless interest rates are down.
What war crimes? What "Illegal Wars"? What lies? There is no solid evidence against which to base your accusations from.
Want to know why I like this guy? Because I'm an 18 year old uni student living away from home and working full time - yet I'm still having fun while getting along okay. If it weren't for Howard I wouldn't be enjoying the life I live now.
David Hicks,Afghanistan "Children Overboard" Intrest Rates , G.S.T (never ever) lol Selling off Aussie Assets the list goes on & on wake the fuck up pull ya head outa your ass ya fuckin dumbass kid not even old enuff to remember 1/2 the bs he has done u only just old enuff to vote and think u know it all .. Typical , just tune into network x n get full updates on P Hilton ya fuckin drongo
That would be mightily insulting were I not finishing my bachelor of Political communication this year, asshole. As opposed to a 40 year old that can't spell or use any grammar, I don't see why YOU would call me a drongo.
And really - can you base your accusations on anything? Nope. So go on limp dick. Unless you get something worthwhile to argue about, walk the fuck away.
You can always spot someone who is lost when they start making appeals to authority. You need to study harder. Article 51 of the UN charter, Howard joined in Bushes illegal invasion of a sovereign state for no good reason.(except oil) Under the auspices of the Nuremburg tribunal Howard would be hanged. Why don't you answer what he is doing in Afghanistan (another illegal invasion) when 16 of the 9-11 bombers were Saudis?

I have wondered for many yrs how this govt has stayed in power i know of nobody who votes for them in aussie chat rooms i see their support outweighed 50 - 1 i used to wonder if elections were somehow rigged , i do not wonder any more.
What makes me wonder though, and im sure makes you wonder as well, is the fact that the australian people lie down and take it. I'd rather be organising rallies and protests. March into parliment and beat the snot out of the little runt i would.
I agree with KentAllard. If true then it's damn good work getting the message out. I'm an Aussie but i haven't been home in the last couple years. I've heard it's going to #$%& with Howard. If you want people to listen, cite sources so we can get the facts and then if true do something about it.
Thanks for the compliment. It does not matter wether or not it may be considered "fabricated" The WC quote is a famous one & dead accurate. Google it. Its a total waste of time arguing with anyone who would deny the existence of written documentary evidence, even though these people exist. You will not change Govmnt by telling them facts they allready know, these facts are for the people who are going to remove the Govmnt.
I produced the Winston Churchill bit, there is no actual audio archive of this quote - the second bit is from "time to go John" a collection of short Ozzy indie films on the subject of Howards administration.
Maybe shouldn't have done that, a lot would honestly or facetiously consider it to be just fabricated by you on the spot, maybe include some text overlayed on the picture citing its source?
The WC quote is verbatim, exaclty as it was transcribed The note at the front states "WC Said" short of that people can say what they want - thats democracy - those who can't work it out probably need to be watered twice a day anyhow ;-)
Oh I know its verbatim, but admitting its not even him speaking and having no source can leave it open to abuse from the malicious and the innocent doubting its legitimacy
Well, we can explain to the innocent and igonre the malicious - I see what you mean about the realism perhaps being mis-leading but I'm mot gonna sterilise it for the sake of political correctness.

@SomeAustralian:
If that is the kind of response delivered by a supposedly university educated individual, one really must worry about future generations.
Use of Americanised English, attempting to make a point through the use of profanity, unnecessary mid sentence capitalisation (twice)...
What has Howard's government done to our educational institutions?
