Oz rocks

Having been fortunate enough to know some Aussies personally, I've always liked the land down under. Great sense of humor, friendly people, and they like beer.

Considering their support in the ongoing struggle, I'm liking them even more. And unlike our good friends the Brits, it would appear that they don't give up quite so easily...

It turns out that Iranian forces made an earlier concerted attempt to seize a boarding party from the Royal Australian Navy.
The Australians, though, to quote one military source, "were having none of it".

The BBC has been told the Australians re-boarded the vessel they had just searched, aimed their machine guns at the approaching Iranians and warned them to back off, using what was said to be "highly colourful language".

Too bad the Brits didn't learn from this lesson....
