I've never claimed that Australia is, or needs to be, a world power, I am quite happy with what we are. I just find it hilarious how important the British think they are, and how some people in this thread seriously think militarily they could even go anywhere near the USA. Yes GB is a great place in the world, most of Europe is actually, when you see what other people live through, but you guys need to realise you are not a hugely important power to be reckoned with anymore. You may of survived WWI and WWII but you came out of it a shell of what you used to be, only some people seem not to have realised it yet.
