We explore his advocacy for increased defense spending in Australia and dive into cutting-edge topics like AI, automation, and drone technology in modern warfare. We also delve into the strategic rationale behind the recent U.S. raids on Iranian nuclear sites, discussing the intelligence and motivations behind that decision. Plus, we cover the AUKUS submarine deal and its technological implications.
