Tame contrasted Albanese’s historical advocacy for Palestine and critique of Australia’s involvement in the Iraq war with his current position on Iran, alleging as a “relatively defenceless Pacific middle power, Australia cannot afford to cut its military ties with the US and Israel”.
“We’re in a geopolitical chokehold,” she said.
“To Albanese, I am difficult because I am both aware of this reality and unafraid to scream it at the top of my lungs, much to his obvious chagrin.
Look you can denigrate other cop shows, but CSI Miami is a straight up fly on the wall documentary. Those cats do it, By. The. Book. /s
Yeah, maybe they were less comfortable than I presented it as, but at the same time the key question of Pine Gap had been put to rest by Whitlam by the time of the dismissal. Maybe the Vietnam draw down played a role, seems petty though.
I think I need to see a clear intervention before I could call it anywhere near a CIA coup just because of the behaviour of the other actors. Like those Palace letters, Kerr was gunning for it for over a year, he was so obsequious to the crown, it was quite skin crawling. He contacted the High Court justices they didn’t say boo to the PM, Kerr wouldn’t talk to Whitlam, Fraser had the perfect opportunity to discuss the seriousness of the situation on the plane ride. The whole thing sits poorly with me, self interest stacked on top of self interest, all the way down. I’ll admit Whitlam seems like he could be overbearing to deal with at times, maybe that played a bigger part.
The thing i’d forgotten about was the coupmaster part, cheers.
Well may he say trace every lead, but when the trail leads to Langley… 😎
