We're not that weak, we have about 100 F18's which could completely wipe out the Indonesian air force in a few days.

The two thirty year old German submarines they have are no match for our Navy. Once their gone it becomes a turkey shoot.

They would have no hope militarily against Australia at the moment with or without the Americans.

The problem is the future!

The more money and trade we send their way the more powerful they become.
They have already shown in the past that they are willing to let their people starve so they can spend up big on their military.

We should have nothing more to do with them and continually update our defenses accordingly.
We shouldn't be involved with East Timor, Bali or West Papua.

We should just stay away from them and stop sending them money!

Their Islamic beliefs will ensure they remain poor and relatively harmless.
