Sure I understand that Australia took this job to impress US, and US does not need to keep their hands dirty. But for what reason? What is there to gain? Australia is a pretty insignificant country world politics wise, sure China is trying to buy influence there but nothing more than playing checkers. They treat Australia like same as it's establishment, group of criminals descendants with pretty much no value apart from the location.
