"I thought that a few days ago they weren't going to help at all???"

Well, she did sort of tell us to take a hike.

c'mon guys did you really think New Zealand would drop the ball in this hour of darkness. our PM was misrepresented by the Christchurch Press and subsequently on this website. her actions and words are testament to the NZ people's commitment to this cause. she just purchased 100 odd LAVIII APCs ideal for desert warfare. yeah she scrapped our strike capabilities but we'll have to wait to get those back (legislation for minimum defence requirements?)anyways that's a big contribution for a country our size I don't see Iceland or Chile pledging their Special Forces. when it comes down to it NZ is one of America's most steadfast allies so don't believe everything you read!!!
