Sucking up to bloody Trump is sick enough, but utterly ignoring what it is we are actually doing in Iraq to demand they remain is truly ethically shallow…
Iran missile attacks: National wants to keep New Zealand troops in Iraq
The National Party says New Zealand troops stationed in Iraq should not “cut and run”, advising the Government to keep troops on the ground.
…folks, in case no one has noticed, the Iraqi Army that we are training has turned against the civilian population it is supposed to be protecting…
The tit-for-tat escalation between the United States and Iranâs proxies quickly brought Iraq back into the spotlight, albeit for all the wrong reasons. The grassroots protesters in Tahrir Square and elsewhere are seeking economic and political reformsâand are speaking out at significant risk to their own safety. Yet the months of protests that have left more than 500 unarmed demonstrators dead, thousands wounded, and dozens subjected to kidnappings, torture, and arbitrary arrests have barely registered in American media.
…that’s right, the army WE are training has killed 500 unarmed civilians, wounded thousands of protestors and are implicit on kidnappings and tortures.
That’s who we are training, an army that is killing its own citizens and torturing them.
Whatever bullshit reason we used to justify us being in Iraq have been exhausted, we aren’t training an army to protect its people, we are training an army that is turning on its people.
Listening to National suck up to Trump is bad enough, hearing them justify why we need to keep training an army to kill and torture their own is however too much.

They complain about “overstayers” here in Aotearoa.
US, and we in NZ atm, are officially the overstayers now, in Iraq.

That is it i’m afraid i have had enough, If the coalition including yankofiles peters and mark have nothing to say about an extrajudicial murder, i will be researching the third party’s in the next election, if i bother to vote at all.
Let’s get real, who could take soimin, leopard skin and the dog handler seriously?
The body language of the above photo is showing Bridges with his hands behind his head. To me this gives me the impression that Bridges deems himself as ‘knowing everything’ and ‘having an answer for everything’. The same sort of attitude John Key had whilst prime minister of New Zilland(as Key called this country)and New ZIllanders(as Key called the population). The body language by Bridges is ARROGANCE.
Arrogance is something the NZ National Party are superb at.
I am going to be crude here but in regards to Donald Trump I get the impression he prefers having erections rather than having elections. But then perhaps Simon Bridges has the same ‘viewpoint’ as his beloved Donald Trump.
Still isn’t it typical NZ National Party habit to copy anything and everything that “trickles down” from America? I cannot see the NZ National Party ever being capable of thinking out things for themselves without having to cope and paste it from America. It gives me the impression National just do not have the intelligence to think beyond anything especially when it doesn’t involve money, ego, arrogance, bullying, greed. etc. etc.etc.
Out of this pending conflict with Iran we can all be assured of one thing and that is NOT ONE TRUMP child will be going to war or pulling a trigger(unless they are hunting for a lion or elephant in Africa)against another human being. Instead Trump will be sending the child of other parents to a war and a death He started.
And at no time will Trump ever be taking responsibility for his actions or show remorse when an American child is killed in a middle east war. Remorse and accountability are subjects Trump is allergic to.
So very well put. Magic!.
Did you hear that dirty little National Party ex-mercenary talking about this. I think he needs to be hammered with ‘how many people did you kill as a mercenary and how much were you paid for it’
TIME AND TIME AND TIME AGAIN.
1000% Michal. You are of course referring to the ex police dog handler, as i have stated before not normally recognised as the intellectual branch of the force.
Mercenaries are people who kill other people for money.
Can we please request if that is the NZ National Party attitude then can the NZ National Party please go to Iraq RIGHT NOW?
A few less National Party politicians who have never given NZ and NZers any great service except to be self-serving and free-loading sent to Iraq would be in the best interest of NZers because we MOST CERTAINLY don’t want such politicians here in NZ.
Go to Iraq? Key didn’t even go to the funerals of these soldiers who died there!
