We must start asking ourselves if ‘Australia is ready for war’: Andrew Bolt

Every week the warnings “get more urgent,” and we must start asking ourselves if Australia is “ready for war,” according to Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “Maybe I am being alarmist, or maybe I am alarmed – just like some very senior defence people in the United States,” Mr Bolt said. “I’ve said for some time now, we’ve got to take seriously what China is saying and doing”. “I’ve said for some time now, listen to Chinese dictator Xi Jinping.” Mr Bolt said the Chinese president has been “ramping up China’s aggression” and “hyper nationalism”. President Xi has “repeatedly” warned his army to prepare for war – “presumably war with Taiwan and any country that tries to defend it”. Chinese Defence Minister Wei Fenghe also recently stated China must “comprehensively improve” military training and preparedness for battle because the “great rejuvenation” of the Chinese nation is at a “critical stage”. Mr Bolt said most Australians “probably don’t pay any attention” to this, but the US defence establishment is “pushing the alarm button”. “Look how vulnerable we are, we are so dependent on China – our biggest trading partner,” he said. “Maybe there will be no war, that’s probably more likely. But if there is one, we are in so much trouble.”
