What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty..?
If Sergei Skripal had just defected to the UK and he was poisoned you could say ok they (the Russians) had a good motive but its been ten years the damage has been done why would they poison him now.
I'm not saying the Russians are angels in any area across the board but to blame them because it was a Russian nerve agent developed in Russia well if that's the only evidence....!?!?
So every time Saddam Hussien dropped chemical weapons supplied by the USA was it the USA that went on trial...??? for him using them.
We point the finger a lot these days I would rather we just kept right out of it.
if we side with the USA on China's no go zone in the pacific and escalate our activities in the region as the US hopes that we do.
The Chinese could punish us financially by trading with other nations instead of Australia, they China import up to $100 billion dollars per annum of Australian exports.
If that market disappears it will have big implications back here at home, not to mention the tourist industry that Chinese have created here in Australia worth billions of dollars.
Our relationship with the USA reminds me of Chester and Spike respectively.
