Antinuclear

Submission to AUKUS Public Inquiry – dissolve AUKUS, stop being a cog in USA’s military industrial complex – Heidi Glaser.

226. Heidi Glaser

AUKUS must be dissolved. It is beyond comprehension, the level of incompetence
and ignorance our government is capable of to think Australian’s would support
and agree to these conditions. It could not be more insulting to our intelligence.

We are a peaceful people. We have no interest in wars. We do not want to be
aligned with the US and participate in their forever wars. We have become a cog in
their military industrial complex. Why are we supporting a country we know are
involved in illegal wars who are committing war crimes with complete impunity?
Why would we sacrifice our country for them? The US are not our ally. We have
become a vasal state against our will. No wonder they mockingly refer to us as a
lap dog.

We are enabling them to continue their slaughtering of innocent civilians
around the world. We want no association with them, their bullying, coercion and
disruption globally needs to end now. We are paying them to become a military
target on their behalf, we are less safe because of AUKUS.

We have no interest in
conflict with China. They have no reason to attack us and have never threatened
our country. We rely on them for our economic success. We should be doing more
to partner with them and create a coalition in the global south to make Australasia
the safest and economically sound region in the world.

We have great relationships with our neighbours and AUKUS will destroy that. That is the
incredible insanity of this agreement. It is ensuring our future failure not
prosperity. If we spent this much time and money on peace in the world, and not
on planning for future wars, humanity would be thriving. Fearmongering from the
US must be stopped, not supported.

We can never allow nuclear dumping on this
land. These submarines shouldn’t even be made. Why are they even allowed to
build anything that produces a radioactive poisonous waste? They have no idea of
the long term damage to the planet and it’s unbelievable to hear they have never
had an established protocol around safe storage of the nuclear waste produced.

That is sickening to me. Stop making things that are killing us and the earth. We
need to protect this land. The first nations people are the oldest continuous
civilisation on the planet, the ancient history of their people and of their land is
sacred and it should be honoured and protected at all costs. We can not let them
down, we owe them to fight for this beautiful land.

We reject AUKUS, we don’t
want wars, we don’t want a world where we even need weapons. This can not be
allowed to proceed. No intelligent Australian supports this. It’s time Australia took
back it’s sovereignty. Imperialist America’s must be stopped and this is our chance
to cut all ties with them.
