Australians against non-UN attack on Iraq: poll
Remarkable poll figures which show the public is not buying the "war on terror" propaganda, and which must place the Howard government's war policy under pressure. 62 percent believe Australia should only be involved in a war if approved by the United Nations; one-third are opposed to war under any circumstances. 65 percent believe a unilateral attack will increase Australia's exposure to terrorist retribution. One indication of propaganda success, however, is that more people regard Iraq as a greater threat to Australian security than North Korea.
