What is your point? That we offered support and Australia offered a boot?
No, that this has been going on a long time, and you didn't seem to care a week ago.

Excuse me, I DO KNOW what is going on in the world. In any stand off there comes a point where the betting is done and the hand is won. At the end of the night, someone goes home a winner and someone goes home a loser. The US has the ability to outlast the the terrorists.
At the cost of more and more dead American civilians.
This action will not stop the terrorist, just increase their number.No, killing people decreases their numbers.
Yes it did, for awhile. As both sides have changed tactics progress was made. Some winning, some losing. The UK has stopped short of using aircraft. The Irish have a reputation for stubbornness, I know. If you think what is occurring in Ireland is in anyway comparable with what Bin Ladin does, then you're mistaken.Paul \"Duggy\" DugganAsk people in London how Northern Ireland's doing.Wes Hutchings

Notice how the UK was amongst the first nations to support the US.
And Australia was even quiker.
