<font color=green> There are a lot of half empty glasses thanks to your president..........in the meantime, there is a growing chorus by those who are not in denial!!<font color=black> ********************************************************* news.com.au Iraq needs UN troops, says Downer By John Kerin September 2, 2003 UNITED Nations troops should be deployed in Iraq to help stabilise the troubled nation, Foreign Minister Alexander Downer said yesterday. Mr Downer said that Australia would back any new UN resolution to enable extra troops to be sent to Iraq, although no one was proposing a formal UN peacekeeping force. Australia was not planning to send any more troops. At present, there are 800 Australian troops in Iraq or serving in the Gulf. "The situation is difficult, but that's not an excuse to walk away from it," Mr Downer told ABC radio.** He said a resolution, while continuing to recognise the lead role of the US, would enable the international community to play a fuller role.
