Howards Silence Speaks Volumes

Australian Prime Minister John Howard is refusing to comment on reports by U.S. military investigations that the Australian army officer who glossed over Red Cross reports was gagged by the Liberal government. Also of note is that Howard is expected to call an election this weekend in order to stifle debate in the parliament set to begin next week.
