So Australia is doing mercenaries now? You know you're in a bad situation when US, UK and New Zealand citizens are being encouraged to join your defence forces.

The West has all but entered into WW3, against Russia, China, Iran et al. What's next, conscription?

The Ukraine war will never end as long as Ukraine is run by a jew. The same people did the Holodomor also against Ukrainians. Zelensky hates Ukrainians.

All politicians are as bad as each other. They send the people to fight for them.

There are leaders who love their people, and leaders who hate them. Zelensky is the latter. He is gleeful to send waves of poorly armed and untrained men to die for a war that he provoked. It's another ethnic genocide from the same tribe who did it last time to these same poor people.

Nah, it's the equivalent to the French Foreign Legion. This is the Aussie Foreign Legion.

Btw, mercenaries sign a civil contract with financial rewards and penalties, whereas soldiers swear an oath to serve and face criminal prosecution and prison for breeches while getting paid shit wages.

None of these people are getting paid as mercenaries. They're getting the same shit pay that soldiers always get.

Yes, there is a difference, they would be soldiers not mercenaries. I just wanted to bring up the image of mercenaries in my note, that we are having to recruit like that. I like the "Aussie Foreign Legion", that's good.

Australia trying to do massed conventional warfare is a fucking joke, it isn't what we are good at, if we do it we will lose...

Our forte was always guerilla war & counterinsurgency.

I remember reading accounts from the Viet Cong about Australian soldiers. They feared us more than the US, as we fought like they did, quietly, in small groups, ambushes and the like. The Americans they heard and smelled coming, so they could avoid or ambush.

Totally agree. I'm not at all for it, as an anarchist, but a model similar to Switzerland or Finland etc would work for us as a country with a low population. But we'd still need to fight to our strengths and talents, as you've mentioned.
