RaymondPierreL3<p>I am finally getting around reading John Fahey’s The Factory: The official history of the australian intelligence directorate, Vol 1 (Allen &amp; Unwin 2023). I had know this work was in progress for a number of years but had totally forgot about it. Until a few days ago when I saw it on the shelves of my local library. </p><p>Why am I writing this? Because of a paragraph I read which shines a light on Australia’s current strategic dilemma. </p><p>Timeline: August 1914<br>“The aggressive stance of Germany in relation to British naval superiority marked her out as Britain’s most obvious threat, and so plans were put in place to deal with that threat. In line with Lord Palmerson’s principle of ‘no eternal allies and no perpetual enemies, just eternal and perpetual interests’, Britain also developed similar plans for dealing with France, Russia, and even the United States.”</p><p>Perhaps that is a principle that our Australian govt ought to have kept in mind. My own view is that our govt teaches us that we never learn from history (unless one is a historian or a reader of history). </p><p><a href="https://aus.social/tags/auspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>auspol</span></a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ANZUS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ANZUS</span></a></p>
