Australia will face 'collateral attacks' if war breaks out between China and the US

I very much doubt that attacking Australia will be one of her first strategic goals. There are a lot of nations to include island nations in between China and Australia. If China and the US fights, we will surly want to use friendly countries for logistics and operating bases, and those countries buffer Australia.

Australia has already been punished economically by China because China has a sore Papa and is unlike that Australia is asking for an investigation into the virus maybe in Wuhan possibly at a lab paid for with United States money indirectly given through a non-government organization to study Coronaviruses.

Excellent article. The only problems from China's angle is the friend angle. From its self, taking on Australia is easy. But would the rest of the world sit back and watch?
