According to Chinese newspaper The Global Times, China has threatened to attack military bases in Australia if Canberra supports US action to protect Taiwan from a Chinese takeover.
“Given that Australian hawks keep hyping or hinting that Australia will assist the US military and participate in war once a military conflict breaks out in the Taiwan Straits…I suggest China make a plan to impose retaliatory punishment against Australia once it militarily interferes in the cross-Straits situation,” writes Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of the Times. “The plan should include long-range strikes on the military facilities and relevant key facilities on Australian soil if it really sends its troops to China’s offshore areas and combats against the PLA (People’s Liberation Army).”
Hu’s article featured an image of an H-6K nuclear-capable bomber in formation with two Su-35 fighter jets. It was also published hours after Prime Minister Scott Morrison expressed support for Taiwan by saying Australia had ‘always stood for freedom.’
“China should also reveal this plan through non-official channels to deter the extreme forces of Australia and prevent them from taking the risk and committing irresponsible actions,” continues Hu.
The Times is a state-sponsored publication, so we can assume the Chinese Communist Party approved Hu’s article.
Chinese aggression near Taiwan has increased dramatically since President Joe Biden took office. Troops are on “invasion readiness” and there are frequent military exercises near the island. In January, Chinese President Xi Jinping made it clear he would do anything to achieve what he refers to as “unification” (read more here).
In the event the US steps in to defend Taiwan from China, it will likely rely on northern Australia as a launch pad. Already, the Pentagon has invested $200 million to build military infrastructure in the sparely-population and largely defenseless region.
“The threat is incredibly unpredictable right now,” says Dr. John Coyne of Australia’s Strategic Policy Institute think tank. “We don’t have a Cold War but we do have aggressive non-state actors, a resurgent Russia, and an assertive China.”
Analysts say Australia has less than 10 years to go nuclear before China’s growing regional dominance makes such a future impossible and have urged NATO to welcome Australia as a full member.
Author’s Note: China has just threatened to bomb Australia, one of our closest allies – why is nobody talking about this? Trump would have responded.

China knows Joe Biden doesn’t have a backbone so I suggest Australia proceed cautiously. They will probably end up on the playground all by themselves.
China doesn’t realize that the U.S. and Russia, in addition to a dozen other countries have a number of strategic plans to handle what we consider as their aggression. We believe the first shot fired was their release of the Wuhan virus. China has a strong military but weak command and control to support their massive population. An offensive against them would be to take out command, key military concentrations, and reduce their population for a more manageable post war environment. China should think twice about threatening us.
I have no idea how this will play out. On the one hand, we have a weak president who has been bought and paid for by Communist China. On the other, we have a strong ally in Taiwan who wants to remain free of communist influence. If China attacks Taiwan which way will Biden jump? And if he does not jump to save Taiwan, what will the American people do? I just don’t know.
No effing way! We are ready for your lowlife criminal asses!!
Australia use to be part of the ANZUS alliance with New Zealand and the USA. It should be an unwritten policy that an attack on Australia would mean the complete destruction of Communist Red China by the US.
LISTEN UP…G OD Needs to SEND a METEOR to CHINA. THEY are OUT of CONTROL Just Like the TERRORISTS. The SUN is SCHEDULED to DESTROY ALL LIFE on EARTH. GOD’S PLANET EARTH Will Be CLEANSED…PURIFIED…SANITIZED from ALL SIN. It Shal l COME to PASS. GOD is the TRUTH. GOD is the R ULER of MEN. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄
Does China really think they have a Military large enough to take on Australia, Japan, Taiwan, India, America and all the other countries that have a military , all at once? Hitlers major firnification elevation was that he separated his troops instead of concentrating them in one fighting front.
