Australia has been warned Chinese military troops, ships and aircraft could arrive in the Solomon Islands within weeks.
There are growing fears China will act swiftly to establish a military base less than 2,000km from Australian shores after its security pact with the South Pacific island nation was finalised on Tuesday.
Security experts expect Beijing to have 'boots on the ground' by the time Australians go to the polls next month.
Sad to see it handed away so easily.
True that. And especially giving all that to an evil God-hating country that would still be Japan's booty whore today if Japan hadn't made the mistake of attacking Pearl Harbor.
What the hell?
May those chinese ‘boots on the ground’ meet the same fate as the last Asian power who tried having a Solomon Islands adventure.
Invade and occupy the Solomons now before the Chinese do.
The Solomons will remain in the hands of the power that gets there and consolidates first.
Sounds like the “island” made a deal with the Devil.
Paging Faust...
In the last war that describes the Japanese.
They are inviting the Chinamen.
And the problem is? Solomon Islands are free to choose their alliances.
Yes a Faustian arrangement if ever there was one.
One of my friends used to go around the world on deep mining sites and his retired-supervisor was on the Solomons. The Solomons was one of the creepiest jungles he’s been to and companies just quit well into operations..
What country are you aligned with ?
This is the third time in two days you’re pimping for the Chinks. Where are you from?
Does talking reality mean being aligned with someone?
Yes. Just another case where the Biden admin failed to take care of business and the idiots in our Intelligence(sic) community were caught clueless. Take these little countries for granted, let them see how leaderless we are, and they are natural targets for the blandishments of the imperialistic Chinese. Now, after the horse has left the barn, we rush our so-called diplomats in a futile effort to undo the damage. Pathetic..
Of course they don’t. “Do as I say, not as I do”.
While the USA is busy erasing it’s proud history, the CCP has studied American History and is busily implementing the lessons learned to take over the Pacific.
