[Anne Goddard]

An Appeal
Dear Elected Representatives and Editor

I urgently draw your attention to my earlier email:
dated: March 12, 2007, pasted below.

As a voting member of the public and an Australian Citizen, I formally 
request you to note and acknowledge my complete and total opposition to any 
form of DESTRUCTION or INVASION (or "WAR GAMES") of by any FORCES OF WAR onto Australia's coastline.

Further:

1. I formally request you to affirm or deny that "war games" will be taking 
place near Yepoon or Rockhampton at any time between the dates of May 1, 
2007 to July 31, 2007.

2.  I formally request you to give your constituents open and clear 
communications as to what type of weapons will be used: by Whom; When and 
Where.

3.  I formally request you to inform your constituent of how any form of 
destruction by such invasions or "war games" will be completely restored to 
the current condition, and the time frames and costs of such operations of 
restoration.

4.  I formally request to know exactly who will be responsible for all the 
costs for such restoration.

Please supply answers for the above 4 requests before the end of April 2007.

Yours sincerely
Anne Goddard

Dear Elected Representative,

Recently, I became very alarmed when I learned about "Operation Talisman".

Such military operations are not welcomed by my family and I.
We hope that you will stand with my family and I and represent how we feel 
about this matter. We are totally and completely opposed to Operation 
Talisman. We are totally and completely opposed to the grand scale 
foolishness and the waste of our precious resources. These miliary exercises 
are being conducted by dangerous and pathetic "big boys" who are playing 
with incredibly deadly toys.
It is time that our elected representatives stood firm for their people and 
gave these big "children" who would choose to wantonly destroy a strong and 
firm ENOUGH IS ENOUGH..!

It is time to close the door on this type of insanity.

This destruction will NOT occur in My Name.

Yours sincerely
Anne Goddard

  The words from the Dpt of Foreign Affairs and Trade's:
  2005 AUSTRALIA-UNITED STATES MINISTERIAL CONSULTATIONS
  JOINT COMMUNIQUE 
  at:
  http://www.dfat.gov.au/geo/us/ausmin/ausmin05_joint_communique.html
  that state: 
  "Both sides emphatically affirmed the enduring significance and relevance of the alliance and its firm basis in shared values, interests and sacrifice.", 

  ...make me feel very ill at ease.

  I do not wish to see ANY PART of Australia's coastline "sacrificed". As a resident of South East Qld, I state that my family, my friends and my neighbours are particularly offended and disgusted, and do not wish to continue to endure this sort of "sacrifice".

  Please write a quick letter and copy to your local media.
