Australia Isn't A Nation, It's A US Military Base With Kangaroos The Albanese government's "quiet diplomacy" to free Assange is so quiet that it can't actually be said to exist. caitlinjohnstone.substack.com/p/australia-is…
"We're so far under Washington's thumb that we're not even allowed to know if there are American nukes in our country, and our own government can't even advocate in defense of its own citizen when he's being persecuted for the crime of good journalism." soundcloud.com/going_rogue/au…
@caitoz It doesn't exist. His statement was meant to placate the Labour Party supporters and voters. The whole Aussie Govt seems to be a spineless perfect and suicidal vassal state. We are not going to see another Gough Whitlam anytime soon.
@caitoz A Bit like Germany but without the Kangaroos and warm weather. Australia won't have control of its own foreign policy until bases like Pine Gap are shut down and leaders with a spine and an Independent vision like your former Prime Minister Gough Whitlam come to power.
@caitoz The level of servitude the Empire demands of "allies" makes them all client states. They can't say no to the Empire.
