Why

“a ʻmodest and time-limitedʻ contribution to international efforts to protect freedom of navigation in the region. No, ScottMorrisonMP, you are toadying up to the US and we are being sucked into another costly, never-ending and illegal religious/economic war.

With no UN mandate this warmongering, driven by the unhinged but increasingly frustrated imperialism of AmbJohnBolton and SecPompeo makes this area less safe, a flashpoint for major conflict. Russia and China will not stand idly, soon the straits will be choked with warships.

The Persian Gulf is the slaughter-house of coalition forces against Iran.

Box jellyfish are far more dangerous than mines.... unless emus have been taught to fly.

Australia stepping up and laying their balls on the table unlike Britain who won’t even defend their own ships

We gain nothing from an unstable Iran, if they get benefit from trade with the EU less hard line factions may strengthen there.
