Aside from the ubiquity of insanity, why would anyone be targeting New Zealand?

Why would anybody target Bali?

Same idea. Soft targets.

I'm not sure -- aren't they by and large against the war? My wife is Australian, and she tells me that New Zealand doesn't have much of a military to speak of. I think they're part of the ANZUS treaty (like NATO, I gather), with the US and Australia. So maybe by attacking NZ, they're attacking us.
