Basically the war was just another flash in the pan during the Cold War. That's how most people see it, anyhow. On one side there was the UK/US/AUS defending Crown land and western ideals, and on the other you had terrorists. But for people like me, my family and thousands of other Tasmanians, it's a reality that we have to live with. Officially, our state has given up it's aspirations for independence, but there are still many people that wont forgive or forget. Even today there are rebel groups that live in the remote bushlands, and while armed resistance is less popular today, there are areas where even the government are scared to fly their helicopters for fear of being shot down.

If you've never known the fear of walking down the street without being harassed simply for your ethnicity and beliefs, then you can't really comment The Leader.
