It allows both parties to explore opportunities with a shared interest. Victoria does not have to say yes to anything if the gain are not there, and I'm sure the federal gov can veto anything that is against national security interests. But the narrative coming out of the media (driven by US?) is that Australia is endangered of being invaded. Its ludicrous.

Look at NZ. They are slowly taking the Z out of ANZUS...... what are we left with?
I tend to agree, and frighteningly many are gulping it up.
