Well, apart from the fact that you know nothing about my country.
I believe that many/most Australians are overlooking the likelihood that if the fan gets hit the assistance from other countries will be limited to verbiage only.
I can't see ANY western nations providing any physical support. China has far too much power on every level to risk direct involvement.
The best solution to this apparently escalating situation is apologise to the Chinese government, pull your neck in, and behave.
YOU might be proud of Australia (god knows why) but other people see your country in a more mature light.
Australia is just a big Island, sparsely populated for very good reasons, an is apparently trying to box WAY above its weight.
