u. s. military. what, what it takes to support u. s. military, for example, in iraq or siri or afghan ascend is quite different in many respects to what it takes to defend the continent of australia. well, we've recently seen an emerging cooperative relationship building up on the international stage. why is australia choosing to escalate a stand off with china rather than improving diplomatic relations given it's geography. it's, it's, it's very unfortunate development because of course china has been for a very long time, australia's largest trading partner. and we've been told for half a century that our future is with asia because of a geographical position and so on. but nevertheless, the traditional dependence on the u. s. has some sort of big brother into insecurity terms. is what really conditions the politicians thinking if with the conservative or labor and this is unfortunately not the one of those junctures with a large amount of money is going to be public money is going to be spent to effectively bolstering subsidizing u

u. s. military personnel about what went on amid and chaotic afghan whole out. we also heard from robert stork representing the u. s. department of defense and he testified about the need for oversight and how the pentagon has adjusted some of its procedures. following the withdrawal, we pivoted our work a dear d i o i g to deal with some emergency air drive time my time has expired. do you have data regarding well, what i, what i was going to say is we've not an oversight work on that. now, but as i testified, we did obtain a copy of the administrations after action and we're actively reviewing that now. and if there's additional oversight, we're already new. i'll do it wash. now, while biding wouldn't authorize the effort to prove that this horrendous bombing from occurring and the hands of the military appeared, had been tied in preventing this, this devastating blast. what was authorized was a retaliatory strike by the united states afterwards. and in that strike, the world saw how 3 adults and 7 children lost their lives. wow, that was all tease contributes
