Description

The image shows Don Brash, leader of the National opposition, making a peace-sign with his left hand and clutching a banner saying 'make love not war' in his right. He is declaring that they wanted Helen Clark to commit troops to Iraq so that National could have them home by lunchtime when they became the government. A tautology since it is actually National who would be likely to commit troops to Iraq; really a comment on the sometimes seemingly nonsense way in which one party says the opposite of what the other says simply to play politics.
