You Australians and New Zealanders and Canadians…I cannot understand it at all, why you come here so light-heartedly to shoot down other colonists of whom you know nothing – it is terrible. Such fine men too – fine fellows…and to think that they are going out to kill and be killed, just to please the capitalists!…
