One point is that Kerry's entire "allies" pitch is a smokescreen.

He keeps harping about how we have to bring in "allies." Yet he continuously denigrates the ones we have, and in the case of Australia, is actively trying to get them out of the coalition.

What conclusions are we supposed to draw from this? That maybe the allies we have are not the "allies" Kerry thinks we should have? Or is it that just repeating it over and over again, regardless of his actual actions, will convince the less-perceptive out there?
