Eldritch kcarruthersMy ever accurate tummy vibes tell me this is not just going to be a few thousand troops that Trump sends into Iran. It’s going to be lots lots more. #ww3
Cycling Stu@kcarruthers @Irisherself and we have bloody AUKUS which will end up causing us to be involved
iris ✿ sandwalker@stufromoz frankly Stu - why would *we* suddenly have to stick to things, when nobody else does anymore??! Especially not that rogue land formerly known as the us?!? 🤷 @kcarruthers
@Irisherself @kcarruthers because if we don’t, no subs
@stufromoz hahaha Stu there will be no subs, ever... just ransoms paid... @kcarruthers
@Irisherself @kcarruthers I think the subs were a bad idea personally. and the AUKUS decision is looking worse and worse every day
Jude🇵🇸@sister_ratched @Irisherself @kcarruthers It was a way to show the USA (was it during the previous Trump admin?) that we were tied to them... Biggest foolish mistake ever
@stufromoz @Irisherself @kcarruthers Pretty sure it was Morrison with Biden. But Albo was the first to jump in and support it from opposition, god only knows why.
@sister_ratched @Irisherself @kcarruthers Yeah, timing is right for the Biden admin... Because the navy were getting nervous about the French subs and thought getting US subs would be easier... (HA!)
@stufromoz @sister_ratched @Irisherself it’s another fucking Tony Abbott gift that lingers like the stench of a bad fart
neoluddite@stufromoz the subs were Tony Abbott decision so of course they are utterly idiotic 🙄
@kcarruthers @stufromoz @Irisherself When I'm king I'll employ Tony Abbott and John Howard as advisers, listen carefully to what they say... and do 100% the opposite. If Toney thinks it's a good idea, salt the earth from which it sprang, etc.
@stufromoz #AUKUS related not surprising https://mastodon.social/@glynmoody/116013156785159497 @kcarruthers
@Irisherself @kcarruthers I am honestly not surprised
Cara Bruar@Irisherself @stufromoz @kcarruthers other words for these payments -- danegeld, protection money, go-away money, tribute, bribe. We will get nothing but pain in return.
