Austrailia has pledged direct aid to the US for hurricane Katrina: http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems...9/s1452110.htm

In other disasters throughout the world they have also been busy: http://www.ausaid.gov.au/human/emergencies.cfm

And the rest of the world has not been sitting on their duffs either: http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/wor...302774007.html

My previous post was, as you said, related to military involvement, but still proves my point that Austrailians have not been insensitive to what is going on in the rest of the world.

Cadet Henderson, if you find yourself unable to address other forum members with respect, do not post. You can make your point without attempting to insult others.

Im sorry redneck..I dont see where i directly insulted any forum member but I will check myself in the future.
