Both sides of federal politics have condemned a video that shows a former Afghan army trainee boasting about his attack on Australian soldiers.

The video posted online by a jihadi network shows an interview with Mohammed Rozi, who shot and seriously wounded three Australians who were training him at a patrol base in Uruzgan province in November.

He said he had one thing on his mind that day: killing foreigners and teaching them a lesson.

He claimed many of his colleagues in the Afghan National Army dreamed of committing similar attacks.

A translation provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute reveals the attack was carefully premeditated, with Rozi taking the time to watch his targets through binoculars before opening fire.

Speaking during a tour of flood-hit parts of Queensland, Prime Minister Julia Gillard has described it as "disgusting propaganda".

"The fact that there's this disgusting anti-Australian propaganda anywhere in the world is offensive to me and to all Australians," she said.

"It's aimed at trust, that's exactly what it's aimed - at denting our will.

"Well no amount of propaganda is going to dent our will at getting this mission done."

And Opposition Leader Tony Abbott also spoke out about the video, saying Australians have every right to feel disgusted by the boasting.

He is describing it as a message designed to undermine Australia's confidence.

"Our enemies are trying to exaggerate their strength," he said.

He says repeating the message is playing into the hands of extremists.

The attack on the Australian soldiers in November was the third by a Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier in 2011, and came 10 days after three Australians were killed and seven were wounded when another Afghan soldier turned his weapon on his trainers.

In May, one Australian soldier was killed when a member of the ANA opened fire.
