Well considering the fact that the Japanese bombed Darwin ( capital of the Northern Territory) I believe that they were, otherwise, why bother?

What was Australia's reaction to the Darwin Bombings?

The population of northern Australia was evacuated, and a defensive line was set up based on the 'Brisbane Line'. This was an over-reaction as the Japanese had no intention (or capability) of invading Australia. However Western Australia, which was virtually undefended, told the Federal Government to either defend it or they would have to come to terms with the Japanese. Three divisions were deployed to Western Australia.


Should Australia have a Disneyland?

I don't see why not. It's a great country with great weather all year round and the environment is very laid-back. Disney had a very big bond with Australia, like they did with Britain and they were planning to put a Disneyland in Australia but due to tourist wise and further from Asia it would have been better in Japan. I really think Australia should have their own Disneyland.
