Il mondo non può più ignorare le gravi violenze nella #DRC (Repubblica Democratica del #Congo), dove le #ADF affiliate a #ISIS commettono crimini di guerra e contro l’umanità.

Leaving aside the issue of propulsion system for the #ADF #submarine acquisition and what type of platform is really needed, there is only one major issue left. And that is can they be built on time and within budget. Arguably and regretfully, the answer appears to be a unanimous (from two ot the @AUKUS partners concerned) NO.

"... a report on AUKUS published by the House of Commons defence committee last week is deeply alarming. The defence committee is government-chaired, so it has an incentive to play down potential sources of embarrassment for the Starmer government — which prepped King Charles to spruik AUKUS on his trip to the US — but it lays out a series of major problems for the UK contribution to AUKUS, especially around recruiting a sufficient workforce to build the new submarine." (Source; Crickey News)

"...the latest report from the US Congress’s independent Congressional Budget Office (CBO) on US naval construction is, if anything, even more alarming on the more immediate challenge of the lack of US submarines." (Source: Crickey News)

It begs the questions: 1) Is there a secret #AUKUSPlanB, and 2) If not, what does #Marles know that keeps him so confident about the outcomes for AUKUS projects?

#ABC reporting on #UK House of Commons Committee inquiry into #AUKUS leaves a lot to be desired for those with an interest in Australian #Submarine acquisition plans. I guess that is to be expected from a ‘public’ digital platform concentrating solely on headline grabs and short and superficial texts. For those more into the details there are other places to look at. But I don’t known how deep the #Fedi interest runs or whether it is anything more than politically motivated with a progressive agendum.

So this toot is what it is, superficial and eseentially not very informative (all in keeping with the #Labor fixation on #Secracy where #Defence posture and capabilities are concerned).

Kat Rea in an article for The Point speaks about the #ADF and #Australian values:

“I’m a veteran of 20 years. War crime apologists don’t speak for us. Like many who have served, I was deeply shaken by the Brereton Report in November 2020. The war crimes detailed across its 530 pages—including the alleged murder of 39 Afghans by Australian Special Forces soldiers—were far worse than anyone expected.”

When I served, I was left in no doung as to my responsibility to uphold the Geneva Conventions, what is allowed in war and what is not, what is a lawful order and what is not. But Special Forces is another ‘breed’. Looking in from the outside, I always thoughs those ‘sandy’ and ‘green’ berets were the kind of soldiers who ‘bent’ the rules and challenged the notion of ‘well asjusted individuals’. Yet, I also was shocked by the Brereton Report in November 2020 and want justice to be served.
