Australian defence expert, Prof. Paul Dibb of the Australian Strategic Policy Institute Australian University has released a report, “The Geopolitical Implications of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine.” My interest was in comments that made the mainstream media about whether or not Putin will use strategic nuclear weapons. Professor Dibb believes that this is possible in various circumstances, such as Putin losing badly and needing to save face. He also discusses the coming communist China invasion of Taiwan, and how Australia could be subject to receiving a nuclear bomb lobbed on it. The main target would certainly be Pine Gap, a US spy station that would play a vital role in information gathering. Logically the communists would seek to knock this out. The assumption is made that a strategic nuke would be employed, but it could also be more conventional explosives all on a hyper-sonic missile, which Australia, let alone the US is impotent to stop.
