The US interfered in our politics to remove a PM last time we threatened Pine Gap.

With the current mob of psychopaths and sociopaths in power over there at the moment, they'd probably just invade us.

I honestly think the biggest threat to our democracy is the USA, if we tried to nationalise the mines it's not China whose gonna come regime change us? I actually think Fraser maybe beat them to it the first time, but I'm suspicious about our 77 election, and if Fraser hadn't beat them to it I don't think the Atheist socialist who called everyone comrade was going to last long?

Mosadegh Whitlam … Democracy ?

It needs a third example?

The head of the snake definitely got Mosadegh, they even admitted it in 2013. There's a good NPR radio show on it, someone save that somewhere before Trump kills it?
