Having already hypothetically destroyed Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane with nuclear-armed HN missiles, the tiny “flotilla” of Chinese vessels is moving to annihilate Adelaide.
The federal government is preparing for a flotilla of Chinese warships to circumnavigate Australia in coming days, as Foreign Minister Penny Wong accused the Coalition of “beating the drums of war” in its response to the naval group’s surprise live-fire exercises in the Tasman Sea.
The partisan stoush over the Chinese navy presence came as former defence force chief Chris Barrie and other military experts warned that building nuclear reactors, as the opposition is planning to do, would be a major national security risk for Australia as each reactor would be a “potential dirty bomb”.
…Marles said HMAS Stuart, an Anzac-class frigate, was shadowing the flotilla to observe its movements and ultimately discern why it had travelled so far from the Chinese mainland.
The US Virginia-class submarine, USS Minnesota arrived at HMAS Stirling in Western Australia on Tuesday for a port visit, underlining how both the US and China see Australia as an increasingly important geostrategic location.
Hypothetically, the Anzac-class frigate is completely outgunned and already sunk. Any Collins Class submarine that went near the Chinese dinghies likewise.
Adelaide will be nuked in the next 24 hours.
Hypothetically, Perth will be fine owing to the presence of the Americans and the peace treaty Premier Roger Cook is about to sign with Beijing, which includes thousands of slave labourers shipped in from the east to Pilbara labour camps for re-education, most notably intellectuals, journalists, and priests (including me). BHP, RIO and FMG share prices are surging.
At least we know it’s nothing to worry about.
Defence Minister Richard Marles has defended New Zealand’s delayed warning to Australia on a live-fire drill by three Chinese warships in the Tasman Sea, arguing that “it wasn’t a real incident” and the response would be more urgent if there was a military threat.
Mr Marles’s comments came as Foreign Minister Penny Wong accused the Coalition of “beating the drums of war” over the flotilla to wage a partisan attack on the government ahead of the upcoming federal election.
A day after defence officials contradicted Anthony Albanese on the timing of the warnings Australia received on last Friday’s exercise, Peter Dutton said he had never seen a Prime Minister floundering so badly on a matter of national security.
“The Prime Minister is either making this up, shooting from the hip, or completely out of his depth – or maybe all three,” the Opposition Leader said.
Has anybody bothered to ask if the tiny battlegroup is nuclear-armed, as it can be?
