. Suppose gotta hand it to the Yanks given their Stealth bombers were never even spotted by radar, so they could operate their bombing raid with impunity. US is a formidable enemy to have.

Interestingly is the number of countries now condoning the US's attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. Even Australia too with Penny Wong making statements to that effect.
From the ABC:
Australia has given its support to US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities but has repeated calls for de-escalation to avoid a wider war.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Monday Australia was in favour of action to prevent Iran getting a nuclear weapon, echoing comments made earlier on Monday by Foreign Minister Penny Wong.
"The world has long agreed Iran cannot be allowed to get a nuclear weapon, and we support action to prevent that. That is what this is," the PM told reporters.
The government initially adopted a more cautious tone, declining to give its explicit support.
Trump Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize: “I deserve it more than most”
That is a bizarre decision by the Nobel Foundation and narcissism and egotism at its extreme by Trump.

How can anyone enabling Genocide for a War Criminal mate be a Nobel Peace prize winner?
Now he's got the US into a war with Iran with many Middle East Nations bristling with anger at the US. All those US bases in the Middle East best be on alert.
Victimisation of migrants, riots he caused in LA, ...
Theatening to take Greenland and the Panama canal by force if neccessary. Wanting to make Canada (and even Australia) Vassal states to his towering ego, with many saying he's a malignant narcissistic. (Meta AI said so too)
But the icing on his hubris cake is that I read Pakistan said he did bug-ger all.
He stuck his nose in as usual thinking he's akin to a demi-god. More like a demon judging by his chaotic behaviours causing so much pain all over the planet.
My dog is more worthy of a Nobel Peace prize than Trump.

Here's a bit of foreboding :
Armageddon, in religious contexts, refers to the prophesied final battle between good and evil at the end of the world. It's often associated with the Book of Revelation in the Christian Bible.
Outside of religious interpretations, "Armageddon" can also be used more broadly to describe a catastrophic event or a point of ultimate crisis.
In more detail:
The term Armageddon actually comes from the Hebrew word Har Megiddo, which refers to the ancient city of Megiddo. Megiddo is an archaeological site located in northern Israel. It's a tell, or mound, that contains the remains of many ancient cities. The site has been excavated and is now a national park.
And a few maps for its location, now named Megiddo:

In more detail:
- Biblical/Religious:
In the Bible, particularly the Book of Revelation, Armageddon is the name of the location where a great battle will take place, involving armies from around the world, gathered by the antichrist to fight against God's forces. This battle is seen as the climax of the end times.
- Generic Usage:
The term "Armageddon" is often used metaphorically to signify any large-scale conflict, a point of no return, or a catastrophic event with far-reaching consequences. For example, a severe environmental disaster might be referred to as an "environmental Armageddon".

I can't remember who said it recently but:
Australia’s participation in the Aukus defence pact risks handing military control of the country to Washington and becoming the “51st state of the United States”, according to former prime minister Paul Keating.

How the Trump world is turning recently is strange. Many European countries' Leaders and NATO have been seriously fawning over Trump. Promises of 5% GNP to defence agreed bar one. Spain I think?
Anyway, Trump's looking more fondly now towards NATO. Art of the deal?
Here in Australia @ 2.3% GNP for defence, it now seems low in comparison, and I tend to think we do need to increase that with China on the prowl. Looking at the advantages of nuclear subs I see now their superiority to convention subs as a strong deterrent.
My tunes are charging I freely admit, and am even looking a little favourably at Trump's bomb- blast, Big Daddy to some..... That was funny!
All know now how much Trump loves praise. He yearns for that Nobel Peace prize which seems now a great carrot
for him to act more compassionately.
I'm fine with that delusion of Trump's, who enabled the Ethnic Cleasing of Gazians with his visions of the Middle East Reviera.

I watched a U Tube clip tonight showing blustering Trump with a quiet and demure Mark Carney, Canadian PM thanks to a reaction against Trump.
As the yoyo threats and tariffs from Trump were blasted all over global media, Carney with superb economic credentials, Ex Governor of two Reserve banks UK and Canada, quietly put in place new economic partners with Europe and Asia. Likewise moving its strategic military alignments and markets with Europe turning its back on the US.
That will cost the US dearly especially Canada's now purchasing of Europen military hardware putting the US's Arms factories in a spin.
Once and dubiously now, US allies are watching this blueprint on how to avoid the 'US Trump chaos". I even heard our Aussie exports will gain from that somehow...
It goes even deeper ... in terms of things like Respect and Loyalty, Sovereignty, ... Respect for the rules of law, national and international...
He shames and degrades what was a noble nation.
Our Aussie PM "ElbowEasy" walked a fine line with the UStrumpet but that line is getting stretched with our PM quietly refusing to let US pressure change the way our society operates. "He's dreaming! "

Trump wants Austrailia and Japan to make a commitment "NOW" to help defend Taiwan if Chi-nah tries to invade that sovereign nation...
To paraphrase Aussie PM Albanese he said it was a hypothetical question and it would be up to the then Governme
nt to make that decision. Nice come back
.
Trump will have a sook about that and maybe lay more tariffs on us out of spite.
Meanwhile Albo is in China making better connections with our Biggest trading partner. Smiling with Xi and chatting about Pandas he welcomed more Chinese Tourists to the Land down Under where currently 20 nations including the US are doing Military Exercises. The usual Chinese Spyships (not invited) will be watching from a distance.
It's a strange world we live in today.
