JOHN HOWARD, PRIME MINISTER OF AUSTRALIA: I want to emphasise, of course, that with the dispatch of any military commitment, there is the possibility that casualties will be suffered. We think it's important that, the progress made in Afghanistan is preserved and consolidated and that the resurgence of violence and the resurgence of attempts by the Taliban to undermine the government of that country are not successful.
