@tbirdsrgo; it's my view submarines are a problem, NOT a solution!
Even Homer Simpson could not have made a worse series of decisions than the Coalition has done in relation to China and our involvement in illegal global conflicts.
If someone really wanted to provoke war with China they'd have done what Morrison, Payne and Dutton have been doing.
As for the USA - they'd sell us the Statue of Liberty, Donald Trump and Hawaii if we offered enough money for them ... OK, they'd throw Trump in for $Nothing. All they want is a market for all those expensive WMDs they keep producing.
