Why is a sensible defensive plan as the Brisbane Line considered a bad one? It would abandon largely unsettled land for time to allow the Australian forces to be better organised to mount a counter-offensive. The Japanese would capture largely empty land and not much else. The plan would centre the defense on the most important part of Australia the SE Corner, where the majority of the population resided and where the majority of our industry was centred.

However it was only a plan. The Japanese had no plans to invade Australia. They lacked the forces and the transport to sustain such an invasion. Better a plan than no plan. Roll Eyes

What a load absolute tripe ... that country was already well settled albiet sparsely.

Darwin, Alice Springs, Cairns, Innisfail, Ingham, Townsville, Ayr, Homehill, Bowen, Mackay, Rockhampton, Bundaberg, Maryborough, Gympie, Nambour ... were all large established regional centres.

You've just proven what an absolute prat you really are.

So surrendering 3/4 of the country to hide in the south east would make it easier to defend?

Of course it would make it easier to defend. You are only attempting to defend 1/3 of the area you would have to defend if you tried to defend the whole continent. There was basically little settlement and no industry out there. You've name a few of the major settlements but how many people were there in real life? A few tens of thousands. Most of the population was in the SE Corner of the continent, along with most of the industry.

Anyway, it didn't matter 'cause the Japanese never had any plans to invade Australia. Basically, it was a sensible defensive plan which never was implemented. There was no real threat, except in the imaginations of deluded fools like you. The Japanese lacked the forces required to occupy Australia. Roll Eyes

Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour. Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe? Tsk, tsk, tsk... Roll Eyes

"The second midget submarine, M-24, crewed by Sub Lieutenant Katsuhisa Ban and Petty Officer Mamoru Ashibe, successfully entered Sydney harbour. USS Chicago sighted the midget’s periscope about 500 yards distant. However, Chicago’s guns could not be depressed sufficiently and her gunfire had no discernable effect. Half an hour later, Sub Lieutenant Ban fired two torpedoes at Chicago both of which missed the intended target. One passed under the Dutch submarine K9 striking the sea wall on Garden Island. It exploded on impact beneath the requisitioned Sydney Harbour ferry Kuttabul, which at that time was being used as an RAN depot ship. Kuttabul sank immediately and 21 Allied naval ratings, 19 Australian and two British were killed."

That's how you may see it you knowall.... others do not.

I'd say the whole plan was thought up by nutless bastards like you.

If it's such a delusional non event why was it denied & veiled in secrecy for so long?

I'd Truely love to see the monkeys from Indonesia attempt to invade Australia.

Firstly
They woukd have to get here.
Our jets with their less than adequate armament could still halve any invading force coming over in leaky boats with captains who don't know up from down.

Then there is our wonderful wildlife up there.
At least the crocks woukd be fed and fat
The snakes woukd also have a great time biting monkeys

Then, for the few that manage to get to the largest settlement up there.
By the time they arrived, most of the inhabitants would have taken off.
The one that remain woukd be either abbos, who woukd immediately sue for land rights and better dole payments
Or, would be AUSTRALIANS who are quite well known for being quite good at fighting.
Unlike the monkeys who prefer to run and strike in sneaky ways.

Now, supposing they did manage to take over Darwin.
Then What?
It's quite a march from Darwin to the next city centre
And by then Aussie all over woukd come to defend their home.
Not all men have yet been pussyfied by the female education system, many of us are still men.

So, the monkeys, having been smashed floating over
Eaten and bitten by lots of nasties
Smashed by locals and financially strapped by abbos
Now have to march thousands of miles through what is essentially, desert.

Back come the jets
Taking out any and all support that the monkeys rely on to feed and water their troops.
It will get pretty dry and they will get pretty hungry.

They could drink water you say
Well, if they decided to attack in the wet season, they woukd still be battling their way through for months
And in the dry season, it's, well ........dry.

So
The attacking force of say 10 million
Would dwindle down to say 5 million before they hit our shores
Maybe 1 million by the time they get past Darwin
Perhaps a 500 thousand by the time they get to townsville.

But they still have quite a ways to go.

Perhaps they could take Australia
But at what cost?
And if you honestly believe that Australia has no weapons of mass destruction, you are sillier than I thought.

Good old Indonesia would cop at least a small one to give them a wake up call.
Do you think pine gap is a holiday resort?

Nah
Let them come
It woukd certainly give the dole bludgers something to do.

Indonesian illegal fisherman and even far-flung African Pirates have been landing on Australian shores to clean their catches.
Sure, many get caught and with no passports, eventually sent back to Indonesia (who always deny's them as Indonesians).
But many still keep getting away with it.

These people will still bring the Virus into Australia if it gets that bad. They won't be compromising their 'business' for any lockdown and social distancing 'crap' as they would consider it. They're used to doing things illegally.

Australian Border Control and Aboriginal Coastal Rangers need to up things against this.

If we made our own Mini-sub fleet. We could always catch them unawares more successfully.

They'll have to do better than that if they want to beat the US. Trump is on track to kill at least twice that many.
