I hope not.
>>52249691

No we wont.
Our time as a empire has faded. Its time for us to withdraw from the world and become more isolationist, at least in regards to military actions.
Also it didnt help that you guys and the rest of the world hates us and constantly makes fun of us.
I say let the Chinese have it.

The only trustworthy alliance is between Australia, Portugal, India and Poland.
>why does america have to wave its dick around everywhere? why don't they just mind their own business? dumb fucking yanks

We never desert our allies friendo
This is also why we don't take people that complain about our military presence seriously
>>52249906
>I forget that it was in the interest of world peace and US to keep Europoops neutered militarily since ww2 to prevent them from chimping out again
The Great Firewall of China was invented to keep out Australians. We should have followed their example.

lol one of the newspapers said we were flying P8 Orions around there
what a flub!!
>>52249894
More like spoken like someone who is sick and tired of the rest of the world treating us like shit.
The British, French, and Russians never had to put up with this shit because of the lack of internet.
Fuck it, let the Chinese have them. That or, I know its crazy, but have Australia increase their military spending instead of putting all that money into their welfare state of free healthcare and a minimum wage of $17.29 per hour.
Course we will

They're just memes on /int/ friend, the only people that don't like us are teenagers and leftists
Yes America will protect you but probably only because it's also in our interest China doesn't have control of the southeast sea
>>52249947
>US to keep Europoops neutered militarily
That was only Germany and to a certain degree Italy. What we wanted was to keep troops in Germany for strategic purposes.
We wanted a larger French and British military presence.
>>52249906
This.
Relentless Australian second-guessing has convinced me they want a bite at the apple -- Pacific's all yours, boys.

Would be a shame. No one in America would care if one of your planes got rekt.

>>52250070
How about you fucking increase military spending instead of your fucking welfare state? You could buy a fucking aircraft carrier or two and be able to protect your interests in the region.
Considering the region you are in and your status you really should have one or two carriers, and not those helicopter carriers, I am talking about fighters.
I mean for fucks sake Italy has two aircraft carriers....
>>52249853
>Our time as a empire
we were never an empire though
do you know anything about american history? being non-isolationist is only a recent thing for us. we didn't even help in both world wars until we were directly attacked.
fuck I hate the ausies but if they're nato allies then we will back them
odds are though they won't attack a plane and if they do war won't happen.

they're getting a new class of subs, and like 8 p-8 poseidon spy planes..so because they don't have a carrier, they're nothing? gtfo here
The Aussies have basically always had our back IRL. I wonder which one of our presidential candidates would be most likely to put the Chinese in their place for threatening Australian airmen? Bernie, maybe?
>>52250199

Then as a nato ally they should buy a fucking aircraft carrier... For fucks sake Brazil has one even though its old as shit.

>>52250197
It doesn't really make sense for Australia to invest in an aircraft carrier. The amount of expense needed for whole air wings, maintenance PLUS the escort ships that a carrier wing needs is huge.
It makes more sense for them to do as they are currently, and try to be very good at the roles they have which then perfectly compliments the new US carriers.
>>52250304
>so because they dont have a carrier they're nothing.
Yes, they are nothing. Considering where they are at in the world and how big they are and how China has been expanding they should of at least started building a carrier.
Brazil, Italy, Spain, they all have a aircraft carrier.
>>52250383
Yes, Bernie would be least likely. Hillary wasn't even annoyed when our consulate in Libya was wiped out with all hands, so maybe it's not her... who else could it be...
>>52250311
We have serious treaties with the aussies.
An attack on them would be like a Russian attack on Canada.
Suddenly the Chinese navy would find itself facing office against the USN. And no amount of propaganda could stop a Virginia class sub from sinking every chinese ship in the ocean.

We have 225 active navy vessels. About 180 are major combatants.
Our Navy is shit compared to 1980-2010. It'll become even shittier until the C gets fully activated on all carriers.

No one's going to war over a downed plane. Turkey? Ukraine? Georgia? Syria? Libya?
No one gives a shit in the grand scale. Now if China went full zerg on Australia we would react by sinking their navy. But it would stop there.

Well my main point is that the newer ones tend to require less crew if well-designed. Especially if you don't have a nuclear reactor in there. That's true if you make your own or whatever.
For our new carriers, they literally took the distribution system used in Amazon warehouses and put it in the aircraft carrier. Pretty cool shit.

Completely, and utterly incorrect.
A teachable moment of "the world revolves around the experiences I have on 4chan".
The world is largely favorable towards the United States, and lukewarm towards China.
>>52251365
FDR was NOT an isolationist.
He had a view of selective engagement.
As early as 1937 FDR advocated higher military spending and stationing more troops in our colonies. By 1940 we had lend lease, arms shipments, and embargoes on all axis nations.
FDR like Wilson dragged us into the war as much as he could.

you sound pretty bitter, mate
did an australian cuck you or beat you as a kid or something?
>>52251325
Abos need gasoline and Centrelink.
Besides, you need people to man those ships and project a significant presence across a massive body of water. China has them beat when it comes to current manpower, potential manpower, current defense spending, and GDP. As soon as the naval defense breaks, the island is done for. A mass evacuation inland would be impractical or even impossible.
All you aussies can go die in a fire.
At least Japan and South Korea have increased their military spending.
All Australia can do is shitpost on the internet on how the US sucks and how Australia is so great with the free healthcare and high minimum wage.
Fuckers probably cheered when the US got attacked on 9/11. I know you fucks make fun of us and say we deserve it when people get murdered and there are mass shootings.

>>52251692
just banter lad
>>52251732
Look at them still shitpost and hate on the US.
>USA BAD!!!
>USA STUPID!!!
>FUCK THE USA!!!
>>52251745
Because you're going to get dominated in a way you don't understand.
>>52251692
inshallah
>>52251772
Why would the Chinese attack NZ when they already practically occupy it?
>>52251765
I'm not laughing at the US, m8. I'm laughing at you.
Luckily for the US, you don't represent their entire country.
>>52251692
I disagree
>>52251612
>I assume his point is not that we are considered better than China, but that we are unjustly hated by the world compared to our policies and actions.
I'm making no such assumptions, but even if that was his argument, it would be untrue. As per the image I posted. We are liked by a clear majority in every region, save the ME.
>Your argument is "hey we are seen as better than an authoritarian communist government so we must be liked by most of the world."
I never claimed that.
I claimed (among other things) the US is seen largely favorably by countries around the world. Not just relative to China. In absolute terms. And it is, as per the image I posted.
You did look at the image, right?

Are you mixing up flags?

Isn't it about time you shot yourself and relieved your own internal pressure as well as your burden on us, you insect? They stuck their necks out in good faith even if they were in the main not in support of the Iraq war, risking lives and international reputation on behalf of our alliance. That's a friend. I say that to this thread, not directy to you, as I'm sure you'd agree we're countrymen only on paper

They're literally never going to do anything other than yell at pilots over the radio.
Those islands are not Chinese territory and will never be recognised as they are artificial structures. They may be moving their navy in and swinging their cock about but its all bark.
The sea and sky around and over those reefs is international and there is fuck all they can do about that. If they were to attack a plane or boat in those waters it would be purely an act of war.
China may have little man/penis syndrome but the Chinese government is not stupid.
>>52251859
No one is ever going to do anything. Not China, not Russia, no one. There's going to be a bunch of dick size competitions but WW3 is in no one's interest.
>>52251459
Oy vey
>>52251885
Exactly. There is absolutely nothing to be gained from war between developed nations. We have far too destructive capabilities and nothing economic to be gained.
>>52249853
Who's a Cuck? You're a Cuck.
>>52251834
What, you think NZ would ever be attacked militarily? If China could annex us they would do it, if they ever were in a position to do so no nuclear ship's going to deter them
>>52251273
They do tho
>>52251404
Ignore the Internet part. You all do really hate us. So, you know, kinda go fuck yourselves.
>>52251431
A NATO ally doesn't have to be a member
>>52251922
Even for the DIC that the lefties have a hardon for conspiring about there isn't a benefit. If there is a destructive war then whoever wins won't be buying much weaponry because they'll have an extreme upper hand and whoever lost won't have the capacity to purchase much.
>>52251845
Dude I fought in Iraq.
The aussies didnt do shit.
If we have any real ally its the UK.
Also they say its just banter but really how long do a people get shit on and made fun of by another country and still want to defend said country?
Dont bring up past treaties, they can easily be changed. The internet allows us to see how the Australians see us and its not good. So why be allies and spend our money and blood on something for them when they despise us?
I would fight to help save Australia from the chink invasion
Its too bad I'm too fat to serve

This has to be bait.
Or you're southern.
>>52251939
purely based on public opinion, which country doesn't hate america? the price for being the global hegemon is that normies hate you m8, if you can't handle the banter then pass that title to russia or china

So, you give the keys to what is basically an espionage base to the Chinese, NEGLECT TO TELL US ABOUT IT, blow us off when we get mad about it, and then get angry when big scary China comes knocking?
>>52251959
>b-but they made f-fun of me!
Literally can't handle the banter: the post
Stop embarrassing your countrymen and exposing what a cowardly and ungrateful little shit you are.
I think we should pull out of NATO and leave these other nations to themselves.
We should only have enough military to protect ourselves and our real allies, not the haters.
I would rather have universal healthcare, good roads, free or reduced college costs, and a real mass transit system then spend that money on a military to defend and support those that dont like us.
We are way to militaristic in our country anyway.
>>52251939
>Ignore the Internet part. You all do really hate us.
How would you even know this without the internet part, fuccboii?
Our culture is literally 3/4 USA and 1/4 /brit/. We couldn't hate the US if we tried.
You're probably some soft skinned vagina who takes banter to heart.
>>52251960
You could be dropped from airplane to destroy city though
Why would the Chinese be deliberately belligerent to neighboring countries?
Hasn't China made its wealth off of de-isolation and international connections?

West coast.

>dur its just banter
>be sure to defend us in case china encroaches though.
You just cant be nice and show a little gratitude for your allies.
>>52252006
I'll be honest with you, we didn't put our brightest in Iraq and this guy can't grasp anything complex
>>52252006
Did you forget we show flags on this board you little gnome?
>>52252050
China's always hungry for new clay

I see where he's saying it's just banter, where are you getting the "fuck da US" part from?

I'm a Brit.

They can have yours, not like you would defend yourselves anyway.

I'm Midwestern. We're nice.
>takes banter to heart.
Your "banter" is not part of our culture.
>>52252152
What is your problem man? I hate saying this but you're literally acting like some Kiwi fucked your sister or something.
>>52252050
>Why would the Chinese be deliberately belligerent to neighboring countries?
Because despite whatever westernized lefties will tell you, the title of the worst foreign policy decisions of any major power over the last 50 years goes to China. They are worse than Russia.
China has made true enemies to their east, west and south.
When it comes to diplomacy they base all their negotiations from their middle kingdom bullshit ideology which is at the very center of their religious idea that China is destined to be the premier country in all the world. And that other countries should treat them that way even if they aren't.
They have improved just slightly over the last few years but as you can see with this stupid man made islands business, they are still fucking up.
>>52252152
This.
NZ can stamp their hairy little feet and ban Chinese nukes if they get upset.
>>52252075
Do you really not understand the "should of" thing? Are you a teen?
>>52252163
So in America when someone says "Nice hair faggot" they genuinely hope that you would go home, shave your head and then hang yourself from the ceiling fan?
