Because New Zealanders are forbidden access to high tech US weaponry- some Hornet missile systems come to mind - I imagine any Kiwi at the sharp end would now be citizens of Australia.

I won't enter the arena referencing your isolationist stance, but considering the deeds at Chunuk Bair and beyond, it is sad to here of reference to the NZ military now being a hinderence in military operations.

It is Helen Clarke to blame. Where are your helicopters? Are they operational this week? If you send one on disaster relief do you now have any counter terrorism resources?

It is ironic that the only addition to the RNZAF in recent years has been Helen's VIP 757.
