Australian Defence Force Censors Fahrenheit 9/11 :

"The Australian Defence Force stands accused of censorship after it banned the showing of the inflammatory anti-war blockbuster Fahrenheit 9/11 on military bases, despite requests direct to the distributor from serving personnel."

The local distributor's managing director said the soldier who requested the film was disgusted by the ban:

"This guy said everybody on the base was talking about the film and they want to see it. He also said it was the first time that anything had been censored. He is disgusted. We are appalled and surprised."
