MUNIR GETS IRAN’S GREEN LIGHT
Pepe Met the Man Who Threatened to Shut Off Gulf Oil

That's an exciting new way for the news to be depressing, I saw this and presumed it was here in #Australia then I found out it's actually in the #USA
The error seems like a bad sign? But I'm not sure what's exactly its a sign of?
Part of why I jumped to the wrong conclusion is that I strongly suspect one of the goals of #AUKUS is that #Australia ends up the dumping ground for our "ally's" spent reactors, we get second hand submarines but I have not heard anything about USA plans to accept returns of the waste?

@IndyMediaAus
This is essentially a *nothing* article which bring nothing new to the public debate surrounding #AUKUS, it also contains an error. There is only one more #Astute class SSN to be delivered to the RAN. A big mistake given how long it takes to build them.The #Turnbull refences are basically **media beat ups**. The ex-PM has a long axe to grind on this subject.

Australia Forges Indispensable US Alliance with AUKUS, Strategic Realignments
Australia is forging a powerful alliance with the US through AUKUS, a game-changing security partnership that's redefining strategic alignments. By teaming up with the US and UK, Canberra is turning alignment into a strength, not a weakness.

"every one of those weeks bleeds a little more leverage out of the White House. Trump’s approval is circling the drain like the last chunk from a grogan in a caravan park dunny." Quite right, hope Albo is Quiet Australian-ing the same odds but doubt it given #Aukus nonsense

@johnquiggin
I’ve noticed :)).However,
1) The UK has decimated its naval forces (neoliberal austerity measures) and cannot field enough escorts for one ot it’s carrier (besides them carrying scant aircrafts due to RAF priorities) let alone two of them. Given its commitments to NATO north western gap and Ukraine, I can hardly blame them. To boot, the UK can only field one of its SSN at a time in any one season for its promissed ‘show the flag’ at HMAS Sterling. So no surprises from the UK.2) The US Navy:
- USS Lincoln (CVN) is withdrawing from operations in the Iran war AOO, where it has been on Ops for over 290 days, due to resupps from the Arabian Gulf being unavailable and insufficient from Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. It will likely steam for San Diego (home port) for resup, maint and much needed R&R if the press reports are to be believed.
- USS Washington (CVN), H.W. Bush (CVN) and Boxer (LHA) are on station in the Iran war AOO.Last month the following locations were reported:
- USS T. Roosevelt (CVN) and Essex (LHA) on exercises near Hawaii (they are now prob being resup’ed with crew on R&R in home port)
- USS C. Vincent (CVN) was in San Diego for maintenance
- USS R.D. Reagan (CVN) was in Brereton also for maintenance
- and the 5 remaininf CVNs were in home ports, 3 of them in for maintenance.
(Source: TWZ.com)All in all, nothing that would suggest a withdrawal from the Western Pacific. It all looks like normal rotations between exercises, maintance, resup with R&R and the active duty rosters.
Specifically, this has nought to do with #AUKUS IMHO.
