"Mr Abbott said around 200 troops would be sent to the United Arab Emirates within days, including a Special Forces contingent "that could act as military advisers to the Iraqi armed forces or to the Peshmerga".
"Mr Abbott said Australia was "not deploying combat troops but contributing to international efforts to prevent the humanitarian crisis from deepening"..
I find it hard to believe special forces troops will be military advisers and will not be in combat , non combatants and SAS seems an oxymoron.
So where is the worlds largest nation China in all this?
