$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('theluckycountry', 'T')o have a civil war you need two well funded and well armed factions. In America, like the rest of the western world, you have two political parties that on the same side, the side of profit, and they control the armies and the police forces.
And in Australia you have the entire country on its knees to the Monarch, as it requires balls and brains to break away from a Monarchy. Rules out Australia in a nanosecond. I mean seriously, the country that can't launch its own rocket....well...it launched....and then 14 seconds later the results from a subservient group of people that can't even build a decent airplane were not unexpected.
54 years of waiting and building...Australia's rocket crashes 14 seconds after liftoffSomeone correct me if I'm wrong, the Germans did their first ballistic rockets in the early 40's, and Americans and Russians were putting people into orbit by the early 60's....and the Monarchy that rules Australia put the first Brit into space (not an Aussie of course) on a RUSSIAN rocket in like the 90's? Yeah, delusions of grandeur indeed for a bunch of leftbehinds and never-wases to even get one more than 15 seconds off the ground. Better luck in the next 50 years Australia!
Oh yeah, and where did this rocket launch from? QUEENSLAND! You know, the same folks who are famous for....being smart? No. Being kind to the aborigines? No. STAMPING BANANAS TO MAKE THEM CURVED!
And the rest of the world is not surprised at the rocket result at all.
