Paul Keating did warn Australia to distance itself from this fantasy and its loony backers
We are as unprepared as our fleet was for the Japanese attack on the eve of Pearl Harbor… We need to act.”
– Ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee Roger Wicker
We don’t rule out first-use nuclear action, we don’t think it will happen but there are certain things in negotiations, if you are going to be tough, that you don’t take off the table.”
– In August 2021, the same Roger Wicker spitballed the Tojo-annihilation of Russia
There is only about 40% of the US submarine fleet operational at any one given time.
The university feminists can’t fix them.
And he thinks Russia wouldn’t retaliate?
Ukraine is not worth starting WWIII over.
Literally insane.
Wicker is saying that the US isn’t meeting its own nuclear submarine targets – let alone having the capacity to give us a fleet.
It’s actually amusing now listening to these deranged shills referencing Pearl Harbour and Hitler etc (vis-a-vis China) when the context is a) the alleged ‘threat’ of an attack on Taiwan any minute; and b) the reality that the AUKUS scheme cannot possibly be operational until the 2050s.*
This means that the US is telegraphing that it isn’t ready for war. The proxy campaign in Ukraine, meanwhile, telegraphs US unwillingness to commit hundreds of thousands of troops to a conflict with China. Overlay these facts with two others: the CIA went out of its way to get China off the hook for COVID-19 and Australia last week sent a delegation to Beijing to kiss and make up.
Is this making any sense to you?

* ‘2050s’ being code for 2060s.
Yes. They are knee deep in it. According to an interview I saw with JFK jnr ( Twitter I cant find it I am afraid). The CIA started the US chemical weapons program after WW2, when Nixon found out about it he gave orders to terminate it, end of cold war gesture. They didn’t terminate the program but they deep throated Nixon. It went on unmolested until Obama found out about it, and he ordered it terminated. They didn’t terminate it but transferred it to Wuhan, and appointed Fauci to manage it, including change of function attempts on various bat and corona viruses. It sounds incredible.
They need to take the scorched earth approach to the U.S. intelligence and federal policing/”justice” alphabet agencies, and start anew.
Sorry…I meant Biological weapons above, not chemical.
If that was true about Nixon, it wouldn’t surprise me.
Despite the demonisation, he was a man of some principle. For example, he (along with Eisenhower) kept quiet about America’s stupendous nuclear superiority during the run-up to the 1960 presidential campaign – when Kennedy was deliberately lying about a “missile gap.” It wasn’t in anyone’s interest to reveal the truth. The upshot was the Russians took Kennedy at his word via Cuba.
I heard JFK junior describe it, I wish I could track the twitter thing, but it will resurface sooner or later.
Nixon was tarnished by Watergate, but that affair was child’s play compared to what they did to Trump. No justice.
I have tired of explaining to left blockheads that Nixon did not start the Vietnam War, he ended it.
$368bill. But the cost hasn’t blown out yet.
Why is it so challenging for the Australian government to figure out that when you sign a contract you make sure there’s no payment until something gets delivered? And put a time limit so the deal is off if the supplier screws around too long.
These guys screw everything up, every single time.
