Operation Astute; we just can't stay away from Timor can we?

Operation Astute, wikipedia article

Well that exercise in nation building sure went well. I have to say I am pretty impressed that we were able to pull together an operation like this in so little time, especially in comparison to the first time the ADF went into Timor, I think we'll be staying for a while this time, maybe we shouldnt leave altogether, but Indonesia probably wont like the idea of anyone having permanent Military bases in Timor.
Good to see we're walking away from that retarded 'fortress Australia' mentality.
