Late last week, a proposed security treaty between China and a tiny chain of islands in the Pacific sent shock waves across the ocean.

The leaked draft signalled that China could deploy troops to the Solomon Islands - and potentially establish a naval base there.

Australia's government was rocked and likely blindsided by the move, analysts say.

It's not just a big deal for Australia. The Aukus pact, announced only six months ago, is aimed at countering China's ambitions in the Indo-Pacific.

Solomons' Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare has stridently defended his nation's right to seek security deals with China - on top of existing infrastructure and other business investments.

It's turning out to be another case of western hypocrisy; okay when we expand our sphere of influence, not when others do, okay when countries join our tribe, but not when they join other tribes.

As even Beyonce understands; "If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it".

There's neither. What I wrote was -
