Wheat, War and Terror

One of the justifications we were given for invading Iraq was that
Saddam Hussein was in cahoots with Al Qaeda and that they had access
to weapons of mass destruction. Currently this is being reiterated by
American Republicans as they try to ward off the malign electoral
consequences of the Iraq fiasco, by linking Iraq to the "war on
terror".

The Australian Wheat Board helped fund Saddam Hussein's regime through
bribery and thus its members and complicit politicians like Mr Downer,
are guilty of financially supporting terrorism. This is a serious
offence under the Anti-Terrorism Bill and carries a maximum sentence
of 15 years. The AFP should immediately apply for preventative
detention orders and haul these suspects in for questionning.
