China rings up our resident idiot PM, now - or in the future. The slimy porker Xi kindly advises he has a couple nuclear-armed submarines off the eastern coast of Australia. While he is on the phone - he launches a missile into a rural city. Our PM would be able to confirm that in a few minutes. When that town is cooked - providing the chinese missile did not cook the crew, Xi tells the Australian PM to surrender, or he will cook all Australian cities. With nothing to in our inventory to BBQ China - I'd say we are fooked. If we have a few hundred warheads on ICBM's, SLBM's, and sea/air launched cruise missiles. I don't think Xi or anyone would ever make the call. We are weak as piss right now, and no sign that will change anytime soon.
