Growing up in the '90s, I thought the Bermuda Triangle was going to feature much more prominently in my life.

What an amazing thing to wake up to. The fact that it is being produced by many of the same people behind SG-1 and it's not a reboot gives me hope. As General Hammond would have said, Godspeed! #Stargate

I am frankly a little astonished at the Lowy Institute publishing this writing. Considering the authors background and affiliations I question how this writing could make the cut outside of "official statement"-levels of representation.
This is a really problematic piece for it’s effort to “both sides” the issue, and in doing so legitimise 🇨🇳 claims that have been explicitly rejected under the terms of an agreement Beijing has signed.

High waters, deep divisions in views of the South China Sea
One side’s freedom of navigation is the other’s territorial violation – and no code of conduct seems set to reconcile this.

Imagine thinking Taiwan is some collectible the US can hand over —
Bruce Wolpe and the #SundayShot crew somehow manage to erase 23 million people while congratulating themselves for their nuance.
That’s not analysis — it’s a masterclass in how to colonize a conversation without even owning a navy.
The self-ascribed progressive alternative to ABC's The Insiders, #SundayShot, @instanterudite.bsky.social and Bruce Wolpe with dreadful comments about Taiwan, bizarrely claiming the US could cede Taiwan to China as if it is it US territory, erasing 23m people with their own story.

The extremely unique Raytheon Canada MK.III Sea Sparrow launchers on the Canadian Iroquois Class destroyer, before its TRUMP upgrade to standard MK.41 VLS. They were unique in that they had a folding system where the Sparrows would fold away when not in use

45 yrs ago tonight at Grand Forks AFB, North Dakota, the number five engine on the right wing of a B-52H on ground alert caught fire during a drill. The B-52H was loaded with 8 Short-Range Attack Missiles (each armed with a 170-200-kiloton W69 warhead) and 4 B28 bombs (70 kilotons to 1.45 Megatons).

Imagine trying to teach about Taiwan at any Victorian education institution under this agreement, or being a student who identifies as Taiwanese-Australian.
"The landmark Memorandum of Understanding between Victoria and China’s Ministry of Education will establish the Working Group, driving educational cooperation from the primary to the tertiary level."

This is an abrogation of Australia's national sovereignty.
