The Little Tank That Could
Once upon a time, a little Australian Leopard Tank joined the Americans and the British in Iraq...

He died pitifully, begging for mercy

:lol: now that's a little tank that COULD! :yes:

:lol: Good find, Grug.

LoLs yeah.
Last time I looked I musta had scripts disabled or something so couldn't see it. :p

Aren't the Aussies buying Abrams M1A2 now? About fifty of them, I seem to recall. Poor little Leo, the big bad generals don't seem to like him after all.

Tanks on a plane?
-
LoL.
In essence, its the story of any military operation that included Australia. The big main military nations / country's would laugh at the Aussies, then we'd far surpass any of their own expectations. Especially our SAS, but not to take credit away from the mainstream defence forces either. They all do exceptional work. Though often I question the politician's tact when they do use them. =/

Wasn't doing exceptional work when they tried to bug the new Chinese embassy a few years back though eh ?
-
Heh, we all have our off days, don't foget Sinn Fein headquarters and our own bugging attempts ;)

The rest of the stuff by that group is great too. Every OS Sucks is one of their songs. Really worth bothering with, and it's all freely downloadable.

The Chinese defector?
My memory's a bit sketchy, I'm trying to find some archived stories about it.

The CCP Thinks The Australian Government Can Be Bought
“Over the past several years, Chinese officials have successfully built
close personal relationships with their Australian counterparts, all for
the purpose of establishing leverage in the Australian government. The CCP
is convinced that the Australian government can be coerced to follow its
aims through application of economic pressures and incentives. It plans to
use economic pressure to force Australia to cave on political and human
rights issues.
This is scarey and eye opening. =o
Especially when connected with the Australian Liberal Party's new Industrial Relation laws which greatly reduce the rights of the worker, and has actually greatly increased the number of imported workers from overseas. China included.
Holy ****. =|
