Black Monday

I suggest you google an interview carried on Australia's ABC Television 5 days ago between journalist and presenter Stan Grant and a certain Victor Gao, VP of The Centre for China and Globalisation, a professor at Suzhou University and former translator for Chinese Leader Deng Xiaoping. 11 minutes that should be compulsory viewing - took less than 50 words to threaten Australia with nuclear attack! Make of it what you will but my take is that these are very dangerous people.

The only country that has made a nuclear attack is the US.
I don't like warmongering from anyone but the US has perpetuated more wars than anyone.

Lol are you sure about that? Or are you talking post WW2?

US and Australia will have up to 1B climate refugees showing up soon.

In 2040... the world environment will be different with Millenials in charge.

Boomers sadly have a terrible record on starting conflicts and then losing.

In saying that a diplomatic coalition should be launched against china, which isn't a democracy, and the US should never have left the TPPA.

Yip, post WW2 (I should have made my thinking clear there, sorry) when the US saw themselves as the world policeman - or was that bully boy?

Thanks for clarifying. Those Roman's were very war hungry.

Nonetheless a superior civilisation to it's christian successors.

While the US and the Allies in general made mistakes post WW2, you perhaps should show a little gratitude for them standing up at least partially to Stalin. The Cold War was thing in case you've forgotten.
How quickly we forget. Unfortunately Eastern Europe bore the brunt of the UK being broke and exhausted, and the US being cautious in not over extending themselves in Europe. Stalin hoovered up and enslaved the spoils.

You are right with the nuclear attack. Related to starting the most wars - it appears that Britain started some more wars in its history than the US did (some unconfirmed internet source says 110, but I didn't re-count), but admittedly, they do have as well a longer history.

The US invaded Canada and Mexico if we want to go further back.
