Mate, seriously, you're just not getting that the fearmongering matters not one iota to the average Aussie. We aren't taught from a young age to fear 'commies', we are taught that we are part of a greater whole - unlike certain countries that claim superiority, force their will on others, pick fights with everyone who disagrees with them and maintain military presences in almost every corner of the world acting like world police.
Spare me the America is Great propaganda. It means absolutely nothing to me.

That is a really good call, a lot of people on here don''t really seem to get it

As an American I can tell you that very few of us with any common sense have any use for the current Occupier of the White House. He is a disgrace to everything that the US stands for and has done everything possible to weaken our stance in international politics and to weaken our economy, if not cause an out-right depression. In fact, I believe firmly that his goal is an economic collapse, with the result being his staying in power indefinitely due to the national and international unrest that would result.
Right-thinking Australians, who I would consider as close to brothers Americans could ask for, should simply kick the bastard out. Tell him thanks, but Hell no.

NOW I've seen everything!
Waking up to this blatant creeping into our country and a slow take over of Australia, I feel sick.
I can hardly put a coherent word together, I'm friggin' speechless!
Do you guys have a lot of oil down under? What resources do you have? I’m just trying to take a mental inventory so we know what we can expect to take from your country once we take over completely.
Before you know it you’ll have a Starbucks and McDonalds on every corner!! Oh wait…you guys already have all that stuff!
By the way…Obama is the anti-war President. He said so himself in 2007-2008.
He won the Nobel Peace Prize for Pete’s sake!

Why the Arab's? Where are they any different from You & I & Israeli's ? Oh because their bad ole terrorist's? If you beleive that feces, you are dumber than you sound. I bet you eat that terrorist propaganda feces for breakfast. The biggest threat to the Middle East is Israel & America.
I have to quit now, as I have determined that I am having a war of wits with some one who is un-armed. steve, you don't know penis.edit on 17-11-2011 by openyourmind1262 because: (no reason given)

I love Americans just like I love every human on this planet, although i dislike the attitude that has been ingrained in them, it's not their fault though, they have a really manipulative regime going on and have for a very long time. Definitely don't dig the barrel chested approach to world politics and their belief that it is their job to make 'the rules' which curiously don't actually seem to apply to themselves, just anyone that disagrees with them, them being the US government, which is basically just a tool through which the ruling elites can exert their will on the entire world.
But yeah, definitely agree with you.

"Please do us all a favor, and just calm down. Australia is a major player in the Pacific. You may not think you are but you are. And the U.S knows this. Today the Chinese are flexing their military muscle in regions from Vietnam to the Philippines. And what are you going to do about that? This is all happening on your northern doorstep my southern friends. The U. S. offers a few hundred troops in time perhaps 2,500. Small potatoes. And that ties Australia even deeper to the American defense perimeter. Perhaps you have heard of SEATO? Like NATO it was conceived during the early years of the cold war, and tied nations in south east asia and Australia to the U.S. in a military pact that whatever happened to you also happened to us. Don't knock it. Consider it a gift. "
