  1. How does James Paterson get to pontificate about the inadequacy of the Australian navy when the current fleet is the one his party left when they lost office

    Nobody is crazy enough to send ships and sailors into certain death over a war they didn’t start.

    You have to be insane to do such a thing or blackmailed which is wrong on so many levels

    “Hey, can you travel across half the fucking planet to help us out of the problems we caused and which don’t really affect you?”

    “Nobody asked us, but if they had asked us, then our answer would be no”

    What’s the upside for these countries? Negligible. The downside is way worse

    Grateful for the some of the world not wanting to join in a literal world war.

    Trump: we will do this alone. We don’t need anyone.

    The world: damn it. We all know how this goes, let’s send some forces since this affects us a lot.

    T: we don’t need you. Just trying to come late to the party after we’ve already won.

    W: Hmm. Ok. Risky move.

    T: hey, everyone send your forces to help out!

    W: Naw, we good. You got this.

    Who could have possibly seen this coming? Everyone. Everyone fucking saw it coming.

  8. Before everyone gets too excited, this sounds less like we’re not helping because of our moral high ground and more like it’s because we’re not equipped to 😅

    Why doesn’t the Board of Peace resolve this, isn’t that what the billions are for.

  10. Canada will send all its nuclear powered Carriers to help out…. We should have one ready to go in about 20 years so hang tight USA lol

    The last thing Australia want is to lose 1 of their precious warships along with their sailors. Keep in mind, US Navy fleet haven’t enter strait of Hormuz yet despite being in war with Iran but request other party to enter it.

  12. What about Israel? They have a modern navy, best American money and German discounts can buy

    1/ If countries do what Trump wants, it would only escalate the war.

    2/ Countries would be putting their military assets into danger in a war they were not part of as well as further increase to debt/inflation as war is not cheap.

    3/ Weaken USA so there is room for countries to establish their military and economic to catchup with USA as to re-balance the equation in the future.

  14. America has the largest navy in the world, why do they need anyone’s help to secure a small stretch of water?

  15. This does not bode well at all. The 5000 US sailors he dispatched is heading into a fight with no allies to back them up. They heading towards death if he doesn’t call them back.

    Tell my country we’re going to by your “51st state”, then piss all over your allies by waging economic war on them. Absolute disrespect for global peace and order, and for humanity.

    Yeah… fuck right off.

    Hopefully all the Idiocracy supporters who voted for you get drafted to go remove mines.

  17. I would rather see a covid-esq working from home lockdown, petrol rationing and the price doubling than see aussie ships sent to aid in this… experiment.
