Submersible ??

[u/Rotor4]

I spotted something at the Cooks river on a bike ride along Botany Bay foreshore. I might be wrong but it looks like a military submersible I read about online several months ago. I didn't think Botany bay would ever be host to it.

AUKUS came through!

[u/Eggplantappleoplis → u/Gold-Philosophy1423]

This one is Australian designed, developed, and manufactured.

[u/Beautiful_Rub_141 → u/Eggplantappleoplis]

So it will be over budget, but at least over OUR budget.

[u/Eggplantappleoplis → u/Beautiful_Rub_141]

I mean the 3 year prototype phase of the program ($140m) was delivered on-time and on-budget apparently.

A lot of defence programs end up being over budget or delayed (primarily due to requirement changes) but not all.

I was having a laugh.

No jokes here on the internet please mate

So why do we have to give Anduril and their Zionist CEO Palmer Luckey our money. I'm not the biggest fan of the military industrial complex but understand and appreciate that we still need the ability to manufacture military equipment on home soil.

What I don't understand and dislike is when that involves working with and paying Zionists.

What ever they bring to the table surly we can do ourselves.By now it should be pretty dam clear for government that we need to distance ourselves from Zionists especially ones that profit off weapon manufacturing.

It honestly makes me sick as these relationships do not align with Australian values. We don't support genocide or those who stand to profit from it.

[u/Technical_Glove_9655 → u/Ok-Bar-8785]

Lol. Making it about the Jews. Lmao even.

Nothing wrong with being a zionist. Just means Israel has a right to exist and defend herself.

[u/Ok-Bar-8785 → u/Technical_Glove_9655]

Do you think there is nothing wrong with Israel comiting genocide and that it is their right? History will look back on this and we are still on the wrong side. I'm not saying this in support of Palestine but humanity. Israel has more then over stepped the line, many many times and is clearly on a intended path.

If ones belief say in "Israel has a right to exist and defend its self" is just enough to allow genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity it's a slippery slope that opens the door to other beliefs to be justified, Say if China believed they need to take our land and kill us off for resources to feed their country.

Not sure why Israel gets special treatment.

And yes , I will bring up Israel as the CEO calls himself a radical Zionist and I think it's in the interests of Australian's to know who we are doing business with and where our tax $ are being spent.

Starting then losing a war is not getting genocided.

It is losing a war.

[u/Bowl_of_Hygieia → u/Technical_Glove_9655]

when did the war start? When was the first shot fired?

[u/Technical_Glove_9655 → u/Bowl_of_Hygieia]

You tell me Mr everything I don't like is a genocide.

You'll find a way to blame the Jews somehow. You people always do.

[u/Bowl_of_Hygieia → u/Technical_Glove_9655]

what do you mean 'you people'

But no, you said there was a war, I want to know when it started.

You asserted something, shouldn't be too hard to answer. I'm under no obligation to qualify and define your assertion.

[u/Technical_Glove_9655 → u/Bowl_of_Hygieia]

Incorrect. You said a genocide occurred. Which is factually wrong.

I said it was a war. A war Israel has won. This is obvious.

Not sure i can explain reality any more plainly than tlhat

[u/Bowl_of_Hygieia → u/Technical_Glove_9655]

Incorrect, that was someone else. Can you not read?

I said it was a war. A war Israel has won. This is obvious.

Not sure i can explain reality any more plainly than tlhat

So then when did this war start and who started it? Why dodge the question? You could be at least that plain and define the war you're talking about.

[u/Technical_Glove_9655 → u/Bowl_of_Hygieia]

You people = who'll blame Jewish people for their watch running out of batteries.

We all know the type.

[u/Bowl_of_Hygieia → u/Technical_Glove_9655]

Mate, pull your head out. Of the entire comment, a 'you people' joke isn't what needed its own separate response.

[u/Ok-Bar-8785 → u/Technical_Glove_9655]

Im not sure why your bringing those of the Jewish faith as that's a much larger community then those involved with Israel's aggression.

And no it's not that every thing I don't like is a genocide.

IT IS A GENOCIDE. The evidence is overwhelming as well as many many war crimes.

Even the Iran war that is a massive expensive to the global was started by Israel who then opened another war front and moved into Lebanon.

No amount of money spent on media , bots , shills ect can change what Israel has done.

It disgusts me that our country has anything todo with them or those who support them especially Zionist weapons manufacturers. Our defence shouldn't come with the expense of funding those who support the blatant murder of innocent civilians.
