Good retrospective

Bruce Wearne, BALLARAT CENTRAL, Jan 6, 2025

Thank you Andrew for your retrospective. It’s helpful to be reminded of the serious failure that arose from our Government’s willing compliance with the US claim that the invasion was a “necessary unilateral action”.

As it happened, such a rationale, two years later, was taken by Fiji’s coupster when the RFMF took power from Laisenia Qarase’s democratically elected government. And then we saw the sad procession of some duly qualified jurists from Australia and New Zealand seeking employment in the illegal regime. And that to this day casts a pretty dark shadow over the jurisprudence that is taught in these former British colonies.

Thanks again, your retrospective as an active “elder” in our midst is very much appreciated.

Share and Enjoy !
