David Archibald, is a Perth-based scientist and analyst. Hear David speak on his latest book Australia's Defence.
"We should be taking the Chinese at their word. When they say they will seize the Senkaku islands from Japan, then they will be attacking Japan. When say they are going to seize the South China Sea, then they will be killing Vietnamese, Filipinos, Indonesians and Malaysians to do so. When China says that they will be having a war with the United States in a Götterdämmerung that will decide who rules the world thereafter, then another world war is coming. They have said all those things.
It is time for Australia to awake from its torpor and prepare for what is coming. We need more submarines and quickly. The F-35 will be shot out of the sky, but there is a better alternative. This book explains all."
The function is $22 with the first drink free and will be held on Wednesday April 13 at Urbane, 181 Mary Street, Brisbane at 6:00 pm for 6:30 pm.
