Australia should invade Solomon Islands?? Yeah right who is this lunatic???, page-22

These countries are being a bit short sighted aren't they .
We've supported them a long time and whatever China gives ...it's not for nothing...it has a cost .
Seems a pacific trend .
Bases for China potentially and countries that can vote in the UN .

Their choice though and we don't need to get too parenoid about it .

In the case of the Solomons though I did find it worrying in that I got the sniff that it might be part of the deal to keep the present leader in power , no matter what !
Hope I'm misreading that aspect .
