If Russia wanted to attack us seriously, we'd be in big trouble. We're a fairly small nation and our Defence Force is small compared to theirs.

We'd be relying on our allies to help us in such a case, of course.

But as to why Russia is doing this - part of this is just general sabre rattling of the type they do from time to time - but our Prime Minister has also been challenging them about the downing of MH317 over the Ukraine (38 Australians died in that incident) to an extent that most national leaders haven't been. And there may be an element of the Russians reacting to that.

If so, bring it on - the murder of Australian citizens is not something our government should take lightly.
