Has there ever been a government that apologized for the misdeeds of its military? Seems like political suicide.Taking bets on if Australia will apologise to Afghanistan or the Afghan people. Anybody?
I am not sure where you have issue with what I have said, please elaborate...
I was trying explaining to @gadgetcool5 why Australia’s willingness to talk and discuss with China about China’s recent actions against and grievances with Australia was not an ‘olive branch’ but an obvious and clear attempt to shift the blame on China once again. Also how @gadgetcool5 statement about how ‘nothing is lost by merely opening communication’ is wrong, as such action would diminish China’s negotiating position.
I am unsure where I have been excessively sweet or sentimental?
The moment that australia tried to unite the world against China in regard to the virus and paint them as responsible is a point for no return for China. Since that moment, Scomo was in denial that his actions are going to have consequences bad enough to send australia into the abyss. Until Scomo takes back his statements and stops any attempt to try and pressure China in the south China see, expect China to show no mercy and the moment that australia becomes stupid enough to send soldiers to the South China Sea, China will make a full example out of them and bring these trash back to reality, that no one will feel any sympathy for them and they will be dragged back to the table ON CHINA TERMS. Australia started this fight and this time it will end with australia blood being split, which is unfortunately long over due at this point with there USA dick sucking for the last half century. They need this to happen so they will know that the age of white supremacy is well and truly over.The photo event is obvious to further spoil China-Australia relationship. No matter who's behind the event, he/she obviously want to make the bilateral relation no return point when Morrison tries to steer the relationship back to normal. This is political, I'd stop here.

No no, a little country like Australia provokes China and China should refrain from provocation? LOLOL No no no, China should provoke Australia to the brink so that they know that China is better at the provocation game just like it is better at everything else. This is some refreshing new in-your-face propaganda by China; I like it a lot. It shows countries that there is no hit-and-run with China; you hit China, you're gonna have a problem for a long time that you can't make go away even if you pretend to be nice and beg.Since you said "I really would like to understand" I will answer you:
An olive branch is just an opportunity to stabilize the situation and start talks. As such, it can be accepted at any time, as nothing is lost by merely opening communication. Further, I would not expect China to ever apologize and nor can we expect Australia to... national leaders don't apologize to other countries usually without major concessions. Morrison needs to look strong to save face. What should China do? China should have just refrained from doing more provocative actions while agreeing to start talks on the list of grievances it released earlier this month. The Australian side was willing to discuss it but claimed China didn't answer the phone.
Awww, don't be scared, little guy. You can quote me when replying to me; you don't have to hide your response to me within someone else's quote as if I'll show up in your mirror like Bloody Mary if you dare refer to be directly LOL Or were you hoping that I wouldn't see it and let you off the hook?As far as having a long period of punishment to teach them a lesson... trying to run foreign relations by fear will also breed resentment. Sure in the short term, you may accomplish your goal, but in the long run it will just turn more people against China.
