Subterfuge has been used in every war conducted throughout modern history, so nothing new at all and trump is as dumb as a dead rock and psychopathically deranged. Remember reading many years ago from someone predicting the future and not sure whether it was Nostradamus or not, but they said the anti christ would rise from the greatest power on the planet in the 2000's and that happens to be the USA. Nostradamus predicted ww3 in 2025 and it would be stopped on the island continent Antipodes and there's only one inhabited island continent, Aus. He also predicted a 27 year war of attrition beginning in 2004, which would mean if it were true that's 2031 and that more than 90% of humans would be gone by then.
Now how true any of that is have no idea, but if we look at the reality, we find around 90% of humans live in the northern hemisphere and that's where the majority of wars are conducted and where the nukes are based and a nuclear war would spread deadly radiation and pollution across the northern hemisphere. Then there's pollution, the majority of air land and water pollution is in the northern hemisphere and we totally rely upon oil from that area for today’s societies to continue and as all the medications, pharmaceuticals, additives, preservatives, plastics and fuel come from fossil oil, we are totally reliant upon overseas oil. Iran is threatening to close the Hormuz straits, through which more than 20% of oil transits and we being the furthest away, would probably be the first to suffer, especially as we only hold between 14 days and 30 days of oil reserves. Our wonderful politicians sold all our oil reserves overseas, so if anything happens in the middle east, our society could come to big stop pretty fast, then the joke would be on us.
However not thinking of myself, as at my age continuous life is a bonus and one which I still enjoy pain free, but like most others, have kids, grand kids and great grand kids. They are the ones I worry about and discovered when away partying, that may have a great great grand kid soon.

Been home for 3 days and had time to catch up with world events, didn't go on line the entire time away, never had time as the party just didn't stop until the middle of last week and when checking everything, not a good look for the future. As for trump and the USA, it's stuffed and had worried about Aus security if war breaks out, but it seems we aren't that far behind and are developing two major defence systems, which along with our 3000+klms over horizon radar, should make us pretty safe.
Those two systems, are called Ghost Bat and Ghost Shark. Ghost Bat is an autonomous air drone with a range over 3000klms, the air force is calling it their wingman because it can protect other aircraft and also attack sea and land based enemies. Ghost Shark, is a small autonomous submarine also with a range of over 300klms and can sit on the bottom of the ocean for months and carries torpedoes and the next generation will carry short range missiles. As attacking Aus means travelling many thousands of klms they would be detected long before getting close by our over the horizon radar and intercepted by our autonomous weapon systems, hopefully. Ukraine which leads the way in drone technology, has shown us what can be done and it seems many of our defence businesses have taken up the drone and developed some nice kit.
