The clear and present danger exhibited by the tyrants Putin, Xitler, Un and the Iranian despotic mad mullahs probably support your first paragraph Scott. I agree Australia needs a massive investment in drones and missile defence systems. Imagine just how many we could "afford" without the impost of AUKUS. I'm not an expert but it does seems that our future submarines may be too late to help us.

However, we shouldn't be guessing who is the biggest threat to humanity and Australia's future. All of the above are a possible threat to us, not Trump.

Trump is rightly demanding that the pressure be taken off the USA for their defence and the US defensive spending which has burdened the America budget for decades. The Europeans are now, belatedly, waking up from their "fools paradise" slumber, previously thanks to the USA, and demonstrably acting to significantly increase their various military capabilities.

Netanyahu has nothing to do with Australian defence capabilities.

Imo, Albanese has promised so much excessive expenditure that he is at serious risk of downgrading our credit rating and placing Australia in a position of inability to invest appropriately in our defense.

The situation is dire and the old Boy Scout motto of "be prepared" is not within Albo's comprehension. Either that, or he is purposely being evasive in the knowledge that we can't afford an increase due to his ridiculous money management !

Without an annual expenditure increasing to 3% of GDP quickly, we are really sitting ducks for any adversary, including Indonesia!

Trump and Hegseth are correct in their pressure for all western countries to increase their military expenditure. This should result in a symbiotic benefit for all countries so affected. Independent self protection, and a greater ability for America to increase its defence spending for mutual deterrence.
