Article Abstract:

One-time Australian soldier and patriot Mathew Stewart seems to be the Kalashnikov-wielding, masked figure who appeared in a 2005 terrorist video broadcast on Arab television, urging the US and Britain to withdraw troops from Iraq. If the terrorist is indeed Stewart, the Australian Defense Force (ADF) will have to delve deep into the murky manner in which it treats its psychiatrically and emotionally disturbed veterans of recent peacekeeping missions.
