I suppose if all those countries had ballistic missiles it might be pretty tough for Australia.

That being said jesse-wtf

New Zealand attacking Australia implies that one of the comprador states in the Middle East is attacking Israel.

If everyone hates you, you must be doing something right! 😏

I honestly cannot think of something that would cause a kiwi invasion of australia. It'd have to be so so bad.

I can dream of Aboriginal and Māori restorationism

[–] Aradina@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

Isn't the current government backsliding pretty heavily on Māori rights? Like they straight up went back on some treaty stuff.

If my country was being attacked by any country or non-governmental group I'd step 0 ask "Why did this happen? Did we fuck with them or are they doing this to get our resources, etc.?" Note that none of the possible answers are "Because they are barbarians!" or "They hate our freedoms!"

And as an American (or Brit, Canadian, Australian, New Zealander and basically just circles Western Europe the EU and yeah no shit Israel) I wouldn't need to wonder for long because if any country on earth "deserves" attacks as in "has done things that warrant retaliation," well, there's two top contenders and one did get attacked last year. And all things considered, the specific crimes of Israel, although horrific, are small when compared to the magnitude of evil the US and British empires.

So, if I were in a commonwealth nation or the USA, I'd probably shut the fuck up trying to use this moronic defense.

A full on pan-scandinavian war like in the good ol' times would be hilarious.

A bunch of tattooed, barista-looking Norwegian dorks versus hairgelled party-Swedes versus drunken Danish uncles versus emo Finns with mullets.

They'll call them the "Bogan Wars".
