If a nation launched 300+ missiles and drones against the US, we wouldn’t care how many were shot down and how many impacted in our country. We’d see it as a declaration of war and we’d respond militarily.

True but ask any Ukranian and you’ll work out that he’s massively more reliable than the Speaker of the House.

Any just like that, yesterday became the baseline. Our inability to deter Iran, Russia and China is making the world a much more dangerous place.

Landed in Honiara. Just a few subtle hints around town that there might an election coming on Wednesday

Message to the world, if they’ll hear us now.

Germany made a terrible mistake by becoming dependent on the Russian economy. But here they go again with China.

Constant cyber attacks.
Intellectual property theft.

It’s not the only country. I’ve been bombed in Kyiv hundreds of times by Russia.

I was kind of hoping that the pro-Palestine movement might take the day off today.

Their language of annihilation is sickening. Eventually we should believe it when they say they want to destroy Israel.

Interesting that Saudi Arabia and Jordan have now shot down more missiles to protect Israel than Poland and Germany have done for Ukraine.

Interesting times when the Greens repost the work of a Russia Today contributor.

I am hard pressed to see how the size and scale of this Iranian attack will not be viewed as an escalation worthy of a response even if there are no casualties especially given the domestic security and political situation in Israel.

Thinking of my friends in Ukraine who are also under attack by Iranian made drones.

We are deeply saddened to hear of the events at Westfield Bondi Junction in Sydney today. Our hearts go out to the families and friends of those who were lost, and wish the injured a speedy and complete recovery. —Ambassador Kennedy
