Crikey readers on American hegemony and remaking the Liberals
G mac writes as follows: Jerusalem Crirase For giving Falinski the opportunity to write about the liberal party. What he does shows how even the so -called moderates in LNP do not understand the Australian people. Remember how long LNP has been in the government compared to labor; Since Menzies, the coalition reigned twice as long as labor.
Falinski’s article cannot convince me, a former liberal voter (in the hope of transforming it into a marginal seat in a super safe alpous seat for 20 years). Proposing Texas’s approach to California’s approach is just one of the reasons why Falinski’s argument has reliability in the context of Australia. I accept that we do not want secret weapons, but we do not want open transport weapons; We want health care for everyone, we do not want to be guilty because their doctors give abortion to those who need them; We want health services such as vaccines to prevent diseases such as measles. The list can continue.
Ironically, this will return to liberal principles and values. This means to re -frame most of our discussions at the moment and to defend policies, principles and values that expand the opportunity for all Australians.
Yes, how ironic [sic]! The Liberal Party seems to seem to seem to be re -framed of so many discussions üzere to seem like “defending policies, principles and values and values that expand the opportunity for all Austtalians”.
Wayne Perkins writes: Isn’t this just the “drop economy ve and the dangerous fetish of“ growth ”as the solution of everything?
Donna Churchland says: Unless the liberal party dragged itself into the twenty -first century and lets the “gnat” tail shaking the liberal dog, Libs will be limited to the garbage box of history. They must be constructive instead of conflict. They should develop policies that improve the lives of Australians. To claim that they should use Texas as a plan, Gobsmacingly is stupid. Let’s build a wall, arrest immigrants, treat women like less being, and forget that climate change is threat of existence. Yeah, that’s gonna get a treatment.
Morc says: [Falinksi] Gives some interesting points. However, in terms of the liberal party, as long as the liberal moderate can not find a way to fight the Nutters who want to turn everything into a cultural war, they are all fan-phic.
As the army of the dead is about to turn you into zombies, it doesn’t make sense to have a bright plan to storm King’s landing.
Nick Thurn writes: The order was always selective and always preferred the developed world. What we see right now is that the United States, which is ruled by a greedy CEO, is determined to screw everyone in search of total domination and final profits, and determined to curse the consequences.
This is just the mask shifts – Trump’s behavior is not new, but with all the silent lice screaming loudly. However, it is new to ignore the results. New shitty in the nest at home. We see the difference between beautiful, silent organized crime and chaotic bandit.
The global south was not under the illusion that the rules would be applied fairly when they came to them. Africa and South America are actively suppressed by relatively benign EU.
Jennifer Green says: Do you remember Rumsfeld’s Geneva Congress as “strange ve and then starts sanctioning torture? Yes. They’ve been there for a while.
John Queripel writes: And so the Australian government, as usual, has now announced support to the US bombings in Iran after postponing the US, the actions are unlawful.
International Law is clearly stated in Article 2 (4) of the UN Charter of 1945: “Prohibition of force: Members should avoid power or use of power in any way against the regional integrity or political independence of any state or in any way inconsistent with the UN’s purposes”.
Iran’s evidence that develops nuclear weapons is very weak. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has been accusing that such a development has been approaching since 1992. Iran did not declare such an intention and indeed puts a fatwa. The last IAEA control was a long part of saying that they were doing it. The only nuclear weapon in the Middle East is therefore illegal by Israel, which is not subject to IAEA controls.
Australia – from Vietnam to Iraq and now Iran – while supporting the US actions, it has constantly eliminated the responsibility to stop constantly for international law. As the alternative “the law of the forest” or Thucydides said, “Strong, do what you want, they suffer what they need to do weak”. It is very hopeful for the global community.
The next time, our government will be my Guffing while calling China’s actions, while calling the “Rules -based International Order”.
Lou Jordan writes: He was definitely more afraid of the USA. Russia is far away and is currently busy. China has closer and more capacity than us, but as far as I can tell, it has not done much beyond the tariffs. However, the US is doing everything he loves and expects support. In addition, we have many intertwined connections that make it difficult for us to see where it is between the US and the interests of the line. And there is a lot of content from the USA. We all drown from their perspective, and we can’t get away from him enough to see him.
