"Australia is the key to the whole game." 🔍 Notable

We've been binge watching Lost since neither of us have actually watched the entire show. Started watching when it originally aired, but that was highschool/college days and I was too tied up with life to keep up with it let alone pick up on all the bread crumbs and [de]programming. Just got to Season 4, Episode 9 and the scene with Lock, Sawyer and Hurley playing the board game Risk. Loved playing the game when I was a kid, both because of my fascination with military history but also the strategy involved.

Hurley: "We're all gonna die."

Sawyer: "Calm down Chicken Little. The SKY ain't falling just yet."

Hurley: "That's exactly what he wants, to fight amongst ourselves. You're making a big mistake dude."

Lock: "It's his to make Hugo. Let's get on with it."

Sawyer: "Right. I'm attacking Siberia."

dice rolled.... Hurley (white) rolls 3+2=5.... Sawyer (red) rolls 6+5+2=13

Sawyer: "Ha ha ha, sorry!"

Hurley: "Can't believe you just gave him Australia. Australia's the key to the whole game."

Sawyer: "Says you."

Sawyer rolls red dice... 6+6+3=15

So as to Hurley's comment about Australia being the key to the game, he's definitely speaking directly about the board game itself, the "Australia strategy"... lots of YouTube videos on the subject. Taken from Wiki:

Holding continents is the most common way to increase reinforcements. Players often attempt to gain control of Australia early in the game, since Australia is the only continent that can be successfully defended by heavily fortifying one country (either Siam or Indonesia). Generally, continents with fewer access routes are easier to defend as they possess fewer territories that can be attacked by other players.

He seems to also be alluding to the plot of the show Lost. But have we been seeing this strategy played out in "real" life? Look at everything coming out of Australia over the past 2 years (and longer). It's been turned back into a penal colony. Have a look over Q posts talking about Australia. Seems to be quite important, also within the context of the British Empire's never-ending attempt at world dominance.

What are the chances that a show from 2004-2010 would be so focused on Australia, with all of the characters flying from Sydney and the plane crashing, and then 3 main characters casually playing the game Risk and talking about the importance of Australia, AND THEN here we are a decade later and everything in reality that's going on in Australia happens?

Found an interesting Q post re: Risk.... interesting date too, Nov 14, 2017... 11 14 2017... 1+1+1+4+2+1+7=17

Why does the US Military play such a vital role in this global game of RISK

Also, another related Q drop... Risk is the game of Global Domination right?:

PEOPLE ARE PAWNS IN THEIR SICK GAME OF GLOBAL DOMINATION. PEOPLE ARE DIVIDED TO PREVENT A RISING OF THE PEOPLE. PEOPLE ARE DIVIDED AND TAUGHT TO FIGHT THEMSELVES INSTEAD OF THE RULING CLASS. RACE VS RACE RELIGION VS RELIGION POLITICAL VS POLITICAL CLASS VS CLASS SEX VS SEX WHEN YOU ARE DIVIDED, YOU ARE WEAK. WHEN YOU ARE WEAK, YOU HAVE NO POWER. WHEN YOU HAVE NO POWER, YOU HAVE NO CONTROL. STAY STRONG, PATRIOTS. STAY UNITED, NOT DIVIDED. YOU ARE WHAT MATTERS. YOU, AWAKE, IS THEIR GREATEST FEAR. Q

What did Hurley say about divide and conquer? Have to get the other players to fight with themselves. The Australia turtle strategy.

I think Australia's importance runs even deeper... those who've gone down certain other rabbit holes probably know what I'm alluding to... think, Australia's geographical proximity to "Antarctica"... real deep rabbit hole going back centuries... the British Empire needing a penal colony? Suuuuuuure.

Another semi-related interesting thing about the Risk gameboard, is Mongolia being its own country and having an ocean border... Mongolia has been cited as an example of Mandela Effect, and there's the long running Mongolian Navy meme, although during the 13th Century the Mongolian navy was one of the strongest in the world before its destruction after falling to take Japan, and the subsequent collapse of the Mongolian Empire and loss of an ocean border. Interestingly, ships today can be registered to Mongolia which sells Flags of Convenience. Just thought I'd point this out for those interested in this kind of stuff.

But as for Australia, Q discussion of it, what's going on now, and its role within "the plan" (of the bad guys and good guys), thoughts????
