August 26, 2001 Two Or Three Things Australians Don't Seem To Want To Know About 'Asylum Seekers', Ian Buchanan

Ian M Buchanan

The road to war began with an incident at sea, as it has so many times in the past - the sinking of the Lusitania, Pearl Harbour, the Gulf of Tonkin, and so on. History will have to record that Australia’s involvement in the ‘War on Terror’ and the ‘War against Iraq’ began on August 26, 2001 when the MV Tampa rescued 433 asylum seekers from the sinking ferryboat, Palapa 1.
