Episode 129

We have to start with the US and Israeli bombings of Iran, even though they have little direct relevance for Australia.


The chances of the US achieving regime change is unlikely, no matter how many clerics are killed. Unless the US and Israel have been secretly arming rebel groups within the country, calls for protests will only lead to the deaths of even more innocent civilians.


In Australia, the RN Astute class SSN, HMS Anson, arrived at HMAS Stirling for repairs. The government claims this meets a major AUKUS milestone.

No it doesn't - it is proof of how desperate the UK is for our cash.


Speaking of cash - Defence Industry Minister Pat Conroy is in the UK to hand over $310 million to Rolls Royce for some nuclear reactor long lead time items. That money should be spent on Australian engineering companies which have the ability to manufacture the required items right here.
