It works in other ways too - for example, the ADF can do things that the American military can't. Thus, the Americans come calling to their Australia partners in crime when they want some nefarious deed done on the battlefield... and Australians just roll over and let it happen - as long as there are avocado's to smash, Australians just don't care what their government is up to.

The whole fucking thing is a farce.
- fit2rule 8y agoIt is such a travesty of democratic principles I have personally decided to not have anything to do with the place, and abandoned the continent. "I probably won't go back, at least not before I switch citizenships in protest."- Oops, I just broke the Australian sedition law. Not allowed to talk about that, either. -note:quotes
