Since it doesn't hinge on which way NZ goes, why get so s**tfaced about it. Even avid supporters of elected governments don't always agree with their policies. New Zealanders are behind the USA all the way and will help in any way it can. We sympathise with all the victims of the recent terrorist attacks but since we aren't there, it is hard to really come to terms with the devastation and loss of innocent lives. America should be grateful (and appears to be) for any support and co-operation it gets - just remember that it isn't a right!! As for our economy being small, what did you expect from a country with 4 million people? And if you don't want our apples, quit buying them. We aren't forcing you to.
