Whose airbase are they operating out of? How will he react when some of the guys he sent to assist in our imperialism get clapped?
Aussies are law abiding. They want to go through proper channels of the problem-reaction-solution process. If they want to get themselves bombed over there in order to find the courage to bully together with the nation that has 2 secretive bases in Australia which can't be audited by the government, then let them.
Do you think that will be the reaction and not "Iran attacked our poor innocent soldiers, we need to send 1 billion more soldiers to stop them"?
UAE airports? The article only specified them? And the article quotes his statement indicating no intention of offensive action. It's a surveillance plane and air to air missiles. What its going to be doing there is assisting US and Israeli strikes which is stupid.
I don't like this war but the logical target from the Iranian perspective is the gulf states and there are Australians there. They've already made attacks on all of the gulf states. There are thousands of Australians in the region. The government has told them to leave while they can. It makes sense to use the adf to defend Australians and so I'm okay with this currently. I don't think they should be assisting US and Israeli strikes. Again the only sane voice in this whole situation coming out of parliament is coming from the greens.
I'd also like to add this is very similar to the mission we sent to Ukraine and we have yet to be dragged into their war. All of this is in the article
