Mission Impossible

Trump’s Hormuz blockade is live. Oil is at $102. China’s Defence Minister says the strait is open for Chinese ships and dares the US to stop them. A forty-nation coalition is forming against the blockade. And one of the last two tankers carrying pre-war oil on earth is heading to Australia. Urban Wronski on the war Trump cannot win.

Hormuz Dateline

The war now has the smell of salt, oil, and old empires trying to defy the tide. Thirty-three kilometres. That is the width of the Strait of Hormuz at its narrowest navigable point: two shipping lanes, each two miles wide, one in, one out, with a median strip of Iranian territorial water between them. Through those lanes passes approximately 21 million barrels of oil every single day. That is one barrel in every five consumed anywhere on earth. Add the liquefied natural gas, and you have […]

The targeting of Qasr al-Qasr American base with drones in the countryside of Al-Hasakah, Syria. #AUKUS is a clown car filled with psycho war criminals #Auspol Albanese Admin need to booit the US and Israeli ambassadors out of Australia, but they're too gutless - just like LNP & ON #pinegap

The reason for the aircraft carrier Gerald Ford's return from the Red Sea was not a malfunction or need for repair! The carrier's commander opposed the order to pass through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait because he was sure the carrier would face heavy attacks from Yemen! #Auspol #AUKUS #PineGap

Niccolò Machiavelli: "An alliance with major powers to defeat your neighbour is a strategic trap; if you win, you become a slave to the major power, and if the allied power is defeated, you're left alone and powerless against an angry neighbour, and you'll be destroyed." #Auspol #AUKUS #pinegap

For Australia The Price is Always Right

Australia has signed up to another war without debate and without clarity. The costs are already visible, in rising prices, strained supply chains and a deepening entanglement that blurs the line between ally and participant.
