I hate to say it but this country needs exactly what you are suggesting may happen to wake people up!! because as a country we have become too comfortable, conceited, important, precious, over paid, overfed bunch of easily led morons that will believe any kind of convincing propaganda, we also concentrate too much on our property prices to ever allow any infrastructure or industry to be built in "our backyard". Its a funny thing that in any war in the last 100 years the first thing that opposing forces will target is to knock out the enemy's energy and industrial infrastructure, but here in Australia we are achieving that with our own stupidity.
