Maurice, New Zealanders would be speaking Japanese, Chinese, or German if it weren't for the U.S. military.

Don't kid yourself, those three New Zealand warships wouldn't scare away a dozen pirate ships if left alone in this world.

Of course we protect our interests, we also protect the interest of democratic nations around the world. It's this synergistic relationship which instills the only worlds only superpower with a sense of responsibility toward the future of this planet.

New Zealand is a small bit player. Nice place to go and have a vacation, but not really a player in these issues.

So be happy, play with you newest cell-phone while we protect your ability to sell it around the world. :)
