Tons of western countries are in Iraq, but England and America seem to be the only ones that most people know about.

Ignorance itt

The news didn't seem to make it out that we were withdrawing all the troops, I guess we are then. Welcome home parades are planned so its all good

Maybe this will cause a domino effect for some of the other countries to start considering withdrawing their troops.

either way, you guys are smart. shame our country is so damn persistant and like "OMG AMERICA WE GUNNA BE NICE TO U" despite the american/canadian people love us anyway. meh.

What's wrong with the phrase "war on Iraq"? It fits fine, same way as "war on terror" or "war on drugs" works.

'cause we're not fighting the Iraqi people, we're fighting the Insurgants there. So it'd be the War on Terror in Iraq.

i didn't even know australia was involved in the iraq war. :S i must have been living under a rock.

Are we not technically still in a state of war against Iraq then? If not fair enough, I just haven't paid enough attention.

Also Australia follow us wherever we go because we are their masters, ain't that right Blake?

The war ended way back on May 1st, 2003 when Bush declared we'd defeated Iraq's "conventional" army. We've just be "stabilizing" and "rebuilding" and acting as "advisors and security" since.

Ahhh well you know how far behind Australia are on everything (except Neighbours), maybe they only just realised.
