PM lost in space! Pre-emptive Strikes & Star Wars Defence!!

War criminal PM backs missile defence investigation but he is not on his own.

Bob Carr dubbed Darth Vader after draconian laws were introduced in NSW following John Howard's threats to strike first and ask questions later. [?]

Of course after any damage is caused to a person there won't be any redress through the courts because of the no fault clause written into the legislation?

Prime Minister John Howard says missiles and lasers could be placed on Australian soil if the Government decides to establish a missile defence system.

A spokesperson on communication and conflict resolution Mr Dia Logue said, "The best defence is not threatening or punishing people as governments do, but to invite those people, who don't share your view into dialogue about it.

Respect is cheaper than Star Wars when it comes to relating to others, who may have cross-cultural differences."


Howard says he wants to investigate the merits of Australia joining the United States' anti-missile program because of the potential threat of a missile attack by North Korea.

Howard says the defence system would not involve nuclear weapons."The whole system is built upon the interception of offensive material heading towards a particular country through the use of missiles or lasers or a combination, but what we're talking about is finding out if it could be of assistance to Australia," he said.

Mr Dia Logue said, "Usually offensive material heading towards a particular country comes at the expense of offensive material being thrown towards a particular country by a particular country who has lost the plot.

LUKE: Wake up John Howard this is not a movie yet. If you want to see Star Wars go to the PowerHouse Museum. You're just a bully. The only friend you got is George Bush and Tony Blair. What about those billion dollar submarines that can't dive? Money better spent on social development? Or in the case of Canberra, more fire equipment? Or in the case of medical treatment, bulk billing?
