Australia is far enough away from China for land based missiles (not like Japan and Philippines the other American vassels). Pine gap gets new satellites and Darwin/Tindall gets a new runway and apron to house b52s. B52’s are known to carry what you say?

“The Australian government seems to be waltzing its way into a war between the United States and China, by allowing this country to become an outpost or bastion of the US military, and as a platform from which they will launch military force against China,” he says.

We need to kick these warmongering cunts out yesterday before we become collateral damage in their next illegal war.

Great article. Australia’s position is not sovereign.

Shortis says Australia’s increasing integration with the US military has resulted in “an accelerating erosion of Australia’s independent, sovereign, decision-making power”.

“Instead of having the option of saying ‘no’ to involvement in United States wars, involvement becomes the default position.”

She cites the March attack by a US nuclear-powered submarine on an Iranian frigate, sinking it and killing more than 100 people. Three Australian naval personnel were onboard, part of the submarine’s crew: the US did not forewarn Australia of the attack.

“Australia might maintain the pretence of sovereign decision-making power, but that’s not the reality.”

This is not discussed in the article but being so available also gives entry to Israel into our military affairs, seeing as they are merging with the US military.

Probably not, but the real question is will we go willingly like every other goddamn time. If the coalition was in it’d be a certainty.
