"In the longer run, if you don't take a stand on an issue of principle and an issue that has morality on its side, you will pay a deeper cost later on." The statement above was made by Howard on Radio 3AW in relation to East Timor. Strange, he has never looked at the injustice suffered by Indigenous Australians in the same way but then, I guess, there are no votes in that. I have a growing suspicion that Howard is using East Timor in the way that Thatcher used the Falklands. Reelection paid for in blood.
