Marles the perfumed warlord has taken great joy in announcing an increase in the transfer of funds from the Australian people to the USA’s Military Industrial Complex. Coupled with the hundreds of million$ spent on Zionist organisations and in assisting their cover-up of Israel’s genocide, we could have ended poverty and housed the homeless instead.

If China is such a deadly threat – why are we sending them iron ore and coal to build fighter bombers, aircraft carriers, missiles, bombs, drones etc?
We even send them beef to feed their military.
Can’t help noticing that Gina Rinehart (who wanted an Iron Dome built to guard her Pilbara interests) …

Australia just announced a $53 BILLION military spending surge… and guess who they’re pointing at? China | @BarrettYouTube
Why on earth would China attack Australia? China is one of Australia’s largest trading partners. We’re talking about hundreds of billions in trade, resources, energy, agriculture, all flowing both ways.
It makes absolutely ZERO strategic sense for China to disrupt that. You don’t attack a country you rely on economically. That’s not how geopolitics works in 2026.
This looks a lot less like “defense” and a lot more like pressure from the United States. Washington has been pushing its allies for years to ramp up military spending, fall in line with NATO-style targets, and plug into blocs like AUKUS. And surprise, surprise Australia suddenly “discovers” a massive threat just as it commits tens of billions more to defense.
Let’s not forget this also conveniently aligns with buying more US-linked military hardware, deeper integration into US strategy, and further escalation in the Indo-Pacific.
Meanwhile, the narrative being pushed is that China is some imminent threat to Australia… despite the fact that the two economies are deeply intertwined and mutually dependent.
This isn’t about China attacking Australia. This is about aligning with US geopolitical strategy, justifying massive spending, and selling a threat that doesn’t match reality. And once again, it’s the taxpayers footing the bill. | Original Tweet
