Yep, Oceania and Eastasia are allies. Oceania and Eastasia have always been allies.

The CCP is the most thin-skinned organization on the planet. They could not withstand a fraction of the criticism that every democracy, big or small, poor or rich, face every day. H#&l, Russia gets a lot more flack and shrugs it off. What a bunch of immature snowflakes.

Putin is Eurasia.

Xi Jinping is Eastasia.

Vietnam is not to be underestimated. They have a very good military. They beat the US and CCP both in the 1970’s. Older folks will remember CCP aggression after the US pulled out, and it was not good for the CCP.

I use CCP instead of China, for a reason.

Australia needs nukes to insure its independence and sovereignty.

Biden has shown the world the US is subject to manipulation by foreign powers.

If it is suicide, the Chinese are supplying the rope and giving the US drugs.

You are right thanks for the clarification it looks like we got Oceania well on its way to being formed that’s for sure.

The EU will have to pick sides, France got snubbed on submarines by Australia as part of this arrangement.

Maybe they will join Putin to form Eurasia.

The Australian constitution was written by the Australian states (although they were still called colonies then). They quite deliberately kept the powers they wanted completely in their control.

Too bad they didn't see the need for a Bill of Rights at the time.

The Australian Constitution was written at one of the most peaceful and civilized times in recent history.

They did a pretty good job. Needed more formal restraints on government power.

At the time they were used to having "good government".

China declared war on the world with the intentional worldwide spreading of the Wuhan Virus. China killed 4.6+ million people.

Where is China’s apology? Where are the reparations?

Better late than not at all - but, yeah, it is late.

Given the lengthy construction period of modern submarines, yes, time is very critical. I'm sure that Trump would've been amenable to a lease arrangement for, say, two of the U.S. 688-class attack boats... with a training detachment of USN bubbleheads. The Pacific is likely where such boats would be needed anyway, so it wouldn't really be a force reduction for the U.S. subsurface fleet (think combined cruiser squadrons, 1941-42). What Biden's "Central Committee" will agree to is anyone's guess.

At this point, I sure hope they're not trying to bootstrap a nuke boat program. Leasing from the U.S. or U.K. would be optimum, even newly-built boats, given the repair/maintenance that can be handled elsewhere if Western Australia (Fremantle, I assume) needs a year or three to prepare.
