This interview with Dr Alison Broinowski on Phillip Adams Late Night Live is very informative re the current Inquiry into how the decision is made to send our ADF's to war.

Alison was one of 8 community leaders who received submissions in the IPAN Led Inquiry held over the past 2 years.

IPAN is greatly concerned about Australia’s continued involvement in United States-led wars. Australia is blessed by a remarkably defensible geography, and faces no credible threat of major attack, let alone invasion. Yet our military forces have been on deployment in US wars of choice in Asia, the Middle East and Afghanistan for decades. This involvement has come at great cost – to our soldiers, and to civilians, the infrastructure and the economy in those countries where the wars have raged – and in some cases still rage. In addition, there is a cost to the Australian economy, and to our international reputation.
