look, it's pretty easy ------------- it's how we look at people - how we view people is what creates them as they are mostly
do you think that America wouldn't have known about the floor plan of ASIO HQ?
no - that would be inconceivable.
if we treat someone as an enemy ----------- simple stuff, they become your enemy if you try hard enough (thank you scotty).
America ----------- by it's OWN recognition - eg. see the Pentagon papers, has treated China as the enemy since about WW2
and America has gone out of it's way to drag Australia into the silliness --------- including taking us to war on the Asian mainland purely to contain China.
With technology what it is. With everyone on the planet carrying an iphone -------- for things like the floorplans of ASIO
give them a bloody copy for gods sake.
look at the stupidity and illogicality of our sillyness -------------- we run about Canberra taking down Chinese security cameras - which we've taken apart and found bugger all bugs in them ----------- because we think China is watching
yet every MP and Parliament house worker, every government worker carries a bloody phone in their pocket made in China - complete with camera on the back, camera on the front and microphone
ffs ---------------- give them a floorplan ------- if they're interested.
We've been infected with American commophobia since WW2 --------- and particularly sick since that idiot Joseph McCarthy
yet - we picked up and used several ideas that came straight out of the communist party - those ideas which we cherish as great and they've improved our lives greatly
Interestingly enough - one nation on earth does NOT use those ideas and their lifestyle is GREATLY diminished by not having those ideas -
that nation is America - and those ideas include paid annual holidays, a good welfare system and management of working hours for people
all of those ideas came out of the communist party in France either just before WW2 or post WW2
look to american working conditions - they are crap in comparison.
it is logical and obvious that we should have security pacts with China and cooperate - far more so than with a retarded fearful war mongering America
