To the Speaker and Members of the House of Representatives of the Federal Parliament of Australia assembled:

We, the undersigned citizens of Australia, are totally-opposed to any Australian involvement in the development, testing or operation of the United States’ Ballistic Missile Defence system. This includes use of facilities in Australian territory for any of these purposes.

We request that the Australian government disengages from planned involvement in this system and ensures that the Pine Gap joint communications facility will not be used in the Ballistic Missile Defence System. If this means closing this base, so be it.

And your petitioners will in duty bound will ever pray.

by Dr Lawrence (from 300 citizens)
