“War isn’t about making peace, war is terror.”-Robin Taubenfeld, protestor

The biannual Talisman Sabre war games are underway, and there’ve been problems.  Last week two bombed up USMC Harriers were unable to drop their load on the intended target, due to uncleared “hazards” on the ground, so they unloaded them on the Great Barrier Reef.  The planes were low on fuel, and their training bombs could have prevented a safe landing.

This year’s Talisman Sabre games are reported to be the biggest yet, with about 28000 U.S. and Australian personnel taking part (don’t waste your time trying to get an accurate headcount, I’ve seen several different Aussie and U.S. reports with numbers that differ by several thousand).  USN officials say they invited China to take part, but big whoop, they’ve always invited China to the party, at least since 2009!

At the end of last year some Australian news sources reported that the Talisman Sabre games are directed against China. But one USN official said the U.S. actually wants to make China a partner in dominating the region: “I think it would be misguided to say its focused on any one country, what it’s focused on is increasing the stability in the region and thereby increasing the prosperity. People are going to more willing to invest their money and commit to a region if they know stability is there.“-Vice Admiral Scott Swift, U.S. Navy

(so this is proof the U.S. military is the tool of the elites because, after all, who has the money to throw away on investing into an entire region of the World?)

Australia might be playing off the U.S. and China, it’s been revealed that Australian military leaders have been discussing the possibility of their own war games with China.  But the real reason the U.S., and the country formerly known as New Holland, want to play ‘army’ with China is simple: “We need to know the Chinese……”-General David Hurley, Australian Defence Force

One Aussie news source said “Brigadier Bob Brown says the exercise is also used to prepare…..international aid agencies for humanitarian crisis.”  Mmmm, what international aid agencies?   Are the western elites trying to portray their militaries as ‘aid agencies’?

For the people of Queensland the war games are being called a “rocket” booster for their ailing economy, at the expense of taxpayers: “Tens of millions of dollars is injected into the local economy via accommodation, via cafes, restaurants and food outlets, the retail sector as well as the supply chain.”-Mary Carroll, Capricorn Enterprise
