Why do people constantly dismiss the achievements of the australian army over "LOL EMU WAR"? We have some legitimately impressive military history here but its constantly thrown out the window because three dudes with two lewis guns and a limited supply of ammunition couldnt kill a metric fucktonne of giant birds?
We fought on almost every major front in WW2 and followed literally suicidal orders from shitty british commanders in WW1 and followed America into a fight with fucking rice farmers, WHICH THEY LOST, and we're still deployed in the middle east to assist our american mates. Literally every allied country we fought with in literally every war praised us for being great fucking soldiers who are consistently reliable under fire (if a little rough around the edges). We even held tobruk when everyone else pulled out, yet I cant have a single discussion about Australian military history without some dickhead piping up "LOST TO BIRDS HAHA"
Yeah fuck off cunt next time You wanna bring up D-Day I'll kick in your fuckin thread and yell "LOST TO RICE-FARMERS HAHA"
Aussie Love and Respect thread
The same reason people dismiss the achievements of the US military by saying
>lol u got niggers
Or people who dismiss the achievements of European militaries by saying
>lol ur army is poor
Its just shitposting, dont pay it any mind.
Same reason we call the French frog-eating surrender monkies despite their domination of the battlefields of Europe for nearly 1000 years
It's more fun
>aussie cant recognize bantz
What is happening right now
LOL, you lost to a bird that can't even fly!
>LOST TO RICE-FARMERS HAHA
So did Australia
It's not the banter itself, We fucking love jokes about the emu war, but it gets old so fucking quickly
>HAHA YOU LOST TO EMUS
"Funny joke user, It's already been posted 15 times in this thread though"
>Imagine being so cucked that you lose a war to birds
"Thanks for your valued opinion on the history of my country, but there is more than one event that has ever happened here."
It doesn't even matter if it's relevant to the topic, brainlets post this kinda shit anyway.
Its mostly shitposting, but probably something to do with being at the beck and call of major powers.
>Brits need someone to die pointlessly on the shores of Gallipoli
>Thank you master
>US needs some extra warm bodies to throw at the VC
>Thank you master, Ill be right there
>US is running out of numbers to call for the Coalition of the Willing party they're throwing
>Thank you master, I totally wasn't waiting by the phone or anything, hehe
And all you have to show for it are some totally pathetic copes like "The VC were scared of our boys specifically, they could smell GIs from a mile away because they all wore aftershave" or some shit.
I guess if I were you Id probably make this asshurt thread too.
There's no shame in losing the emus aussie. After all, you got the last laugh.
Australia pulled out of the conflict before America formally surrendered. Even so, our troops were generally more respected by the local population cos we weren't great big american dickheads. We actually spoke to the locals instead of immediately napalming a village, and there are accounts that australians were great snipers because of how many of them used to shoot at kangaroos back home.
There is no denying that our politicians have always been first in line for a slice of tubesteak from a more major power.
>banter gets old without new material
Tell me about it. There is plenty of material to make fun of Americans for but its always the same 3 things
>get shot
>fat
>mutt
So i guess you know how we feel huh?
>Australia pulled out of the conflict
Does that mean Italy and France are the champions of WWII?
>America formally surrendered
No they didnt
>there are accounts that australians were great snipers because of how many of them used to shoot at kangaroos back home
Thats nice, everyone had great snipers though
...
The difference is that being fat mutt slaves to our Yiddish masters isn't going to change for us any time soon. Then again Australia is more cucked than it ever has been the last 100 years or so.
>">America formally surrendered
>No they didnt"
My mistake
Ya make good points.
Our politicians all wanna pretend like the selling point of our entire cultural identity for the last 100 years hasn't literally been to never ever give a fuck, to call everybody cunt, and to shitpost on internet forums.
We're not a respectable people or ones that care about appearances, yet people in charge seem intent to prove that we're some, high class, hard working, bastion of culture.
The VC where supplied by a superpower and where very adaptable, smart, and extremely resourceful. Their resourcefulness was outstanding. Also, US tactics where terrible in combating that type of enemy. We were trying a lot of never before tried tactics. But at least we didnt lose against SOME BIRDS LOLOLOLOL
lol emus
As an Australian I have literally never seen a pet bird that couldn't swear. I've even seen dudes ride around on motorized eskys before. We willingly punch animals that are fully capable of shattering our ribcage instantaneously
And yet our leader is a fucking virgin who is too afraid to tell another country's fucking leader not to hang up on him in the middle of negotiations? Not some African warlord either, the fucking president of the united states hung up on us, and our leader didn't even say that it was unprofessional.
America pulled out too, they joined in on the war to stop communist guerillas conquering Vietnam, but then gave up and went home, leaving the Vietnamese to their fate, quickly becoming overrun by the socialists without the Americans there to stop them.
At least emus don't fuck up cities the way your niggers and spics do...
>Greatest Military power in the world, So strong that if a war broke out, It would destroy the world
Lost to rice farmers with rusty ass AKs covered in mud and gonorrhea.
>They were too smart for us! And they Were being helped by the russians! No shame in pulling out
>3 dudes, 2 lmgs, one truck
Fail to kill 50000+ birds that, being birds, run away from anything thats loud and hurts them, + they each can take >10 bullets
>Haha the entirety of your military is a joke for the rest of eternity
Oh well, I guess what counts in the end is that Australia actually found a way to deal with the emus, can America say that about the Red Rice Patty™
Cool, he should hang up on Trudeau, too.
I don't like him all that much, but I love when he pisses people off.
See There was no big defeat or huge setback once the Americans really got going over there, they were generally doing pretty well. If the US had stayed, they might eventually have defeated the NVA (they certainly weren't struggling with the Vietcong), though probably at an even higher cost than the actual tally we saw.
What was happening was back home, in America, the people were objecting to the war, complaining about how ugly and brutal it was, complaining about the draft being unconstitutional and immoral, about unauthorized excursions to Cambodia, and that it wasn't America's war to fight, thus the American people pressured the Government to pull the army out of Vietnam and bring everyone home.
Without western support, the Vietnamese had little power to resist the NVA, and very shortly after the US left, Vietnam lost to the socialists.
It's really tragic, actually.
this if we had stayed another 2-3 years we would have won but the white house & congress pulled the plug due to political pressure from the anti war movement
but neither congress or the white house really wanted the war in the first place
and we shouldnt have gone in in the first place
the would thing is fucking biblical in the depths of fucking up done by very senior people
to quote McNamara "the fucking bombs, they have done nothing"
couldn't kill ANY birds, ya cunt, now go choke on your VB
MacNamara is a real cunt.
Kinda wish we could have one of those movements going again, I'm sick of fucking spending on Afghanistan and all the ugly ass meme tan colored guns, all the milindustrial wank.
But nooo, that would be Trump undoing Obama's legacy or some dumb shit like that. It's fine if a Democrat president was involved, apparently.
Have some dignity Australia. Maybe one day you'll remove the commies with the keys to your island prison like the good ol days.
I'm surprised the US government actually listened to people then. They tend to do whatever they want regardless o public opinion, especially when it comes to foreign policy.
The only reason I like Aussies is because they're in the same boat as us Irish Americans and Irish in general
Also because we're hated by English anglos
But understand the bants, Aussie user
What kind of country sees their ally get involved in shitshows like Vietnam and Iraq and thinks, "Yeah, better go with 'em"?
Australia needs to not blindly follow the US
The VC really weren't shit, the NVA was the real trouble.
