message: I am pretty certain that japan was not to invade australia, just scare us out of the war. thats why they wanted port moresby, so we would go aaah! we won't attack just leave us alone, plus with them their it would be hard to get the US defence force in to help.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: By making such changes, even if accurate, which it is clearly not completely so as written documentation will never be comprehensive, it would paradoxically minimise the proven heroism & hard work of the blokes who did carry supplies & the wounded. It is a proven fact that Lt Bert Keinzel was instrumental in uniting often competing tribes into a coherent force, without using force or coercion. This 'myth' is more important to Papuans than to Australians (etc) as it validates the work done by the native people to aid in defending their homeland against the Japanese invasion.
Stating that they only did it by force would be counter-productive to Papuan historical memory. I do not think that this should be altered significantly as I see no historical benefit from doing so. In particular, stating or implying that most of the work was done by bayonet is not only untrue but then implements a strong bias in the other direction. A simple statement that some of the FWAs who served were conscripted should be sufficient. We should refrain from pedantry here, there is a bigger picture and changing the tone of the article so drastically will not be completely accurate & will bring no benefit to anyone.
