So just to be clear, you consider this to be “aggression”?

On the scale of aggression, were there one, how would it compare to sailing the USS Nimitz through the Taiwan Straits? Or shooting down an Iranian airliner in Iranian airspace? Or, say, the almost destruction of Vietnam, a country that had zero intention of firing a single bullet towards the US?

Would you apply the same label to America? And should Australia mobilize to fight a war against American aggression?

Yes it is. For all intents and purposes it simulates an airborne assault on Malaysia. Just another shade of CCP coercion.

The CCP shot-down an airliner too. They also invaded Vietnam. And the rest is just nonsense.
