Oh so tired of diplomats running our military and our military allowing themselves to be emasculated by the government of the day. The Chinese are live firing inside Australian economic zoned internationally recognised waters, no if’s no buts, the gutless Australian government needs to start firing a few flares at the Chinese ambassador by expelling him until the Chinese apologise and,,, get out of our waters.
A pity our government doesn’t have the necessary gumption(or ships) to send a comparable task group to the South China Sea, and mirror the activities of this group.
