'No' to going it alone

Only 6 per cent of Australians are prepared to send Australian troops to war
against Iraq without United Nations backing, an exclusive national Age poll
has found.

In the AC Nielsen AgePoll - a blow to the Federal Government's stand on the
war with the United States - 62 per cent of respondents said Australia
should be involved in a conflict only if approved by the UN.

One in three believed war against Iraq was not acceptable under any
circumstances.]
