Thanks!

Yesterday, new Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd notified his new friend George W. Bush that he'd like the Australian army back please, as it was lent to him some time ago and he hadn't bothered to return it yet.
The media reported that George "accepted" the PMs decision to withdraw troops from the middle east.
How nice of him.
What would have happened if he hadn't, I wonder?
They've probably been sitting in the shed for years, doing nothing, and George'll return them after a quick dusting.
