Not only will we bomb your reefs!

But we will refuel at your bases, to do it again!


(teasing, I am sorry it happened, but I do not see the pilots or the American people so destructive as to do it for laughs.)

I was irked by the article I read, and the outrage like we did it on purpose, or to amuse ourselves.

I didn't interpret the article that way in fact I doubt the pilots had much choice.

The emergency happened during the training exercise Talisman Saber, involving US and Australian military personnel.

However, the mission was aborted when hazards were reported in the area.

I read this article, and never said they did it for fun, I was outraged that it was twisted by the Oz politicians as if we did it out of blatant disregard. I even said they dropped them outside the zone as much as they could.


Because ya know, when all else fails in getting votes, just be anti American.

Quote:
Australian Sen. Larissa Waters, the influential Greens party's spokeswoman on the Great Barrier Reef, described the dumping of bombs in such an environmentally sensitive area as "outrageous" and said it should not be allowed.
"Have we gone completely mad?" she told Australian Broadcasting Corp. "Is this how we look after our World Heritage area now? Letting a foreign power drop bombs on it?"

That is what irked me, and why I gave my response.

A "foreign power" you gladly suckle off of, except when to produce false outrage for political points.

Have fun with China All alone, or developing your own crap, yeah Australia, burn that
bridge over some fish.

Shut that hole up.

Lariisa thinks we did it for poops and giggles.

In the end, they just want american taxpayer money from us,. Like everyone else.

I would think it would be the oppisite, as their accent is closer to yours, plus they are ( no offfense to Aussies, uhhhh....

Convicts of yours.

American populace wishes not to be king, only live and prosper.

But in worldwide reputation we are painted as warmongers, we eat alot of the UN bill, and provide a good majority of the troops and firepower, yet eternally defacated upon. for doing so.

The people hate it, but your government loves it, yet we are blamed for what your (not yours in particular Jim, I know your a Brit Gent, of high standing.) government allows us to do. like letting a " foreign power" practice on one of your uninhabited islands. I should use their, and not your, not directed at you Jim.
Not every air mission is a sucess, the pilots went out of their way to drop outside the reef.

Once again, this is a money grab.

Fish and tourists scuba divers are silly!
