Let me get this straight – media can ask nonsense questions about Ron Mark using military aircraft but can’t ask NZDF about war crimes?
The mainstream media should be embarrassed of themselves.

Dear NZ media, thanks for ambushing Jacinda, now how about that other ambush?
It would be great if we could get the same energy and focus on that now, cause you know, war crimes.

If we are going to demand Bob Jones be stripped of his Knighthood, shouldn’t we be doing that for John Key as well?
If we are going to demand Bob Jones be stripped of his knighthood for a grossly offensive column, surely we should demand it be stripped from a Prime Minister who personally sanctioned a war crime?

Why Andrew Kirton should have gone yesterday, victim led can’t look like this & National’s infamous ‘Princess Party’ means they have no moral high ground
The backlash against Labour’s ‘victim led’ solution only builds while managing to enrage every voting parent while those impacted are only getting support after a month.
‘Victim led’ can’t mean this.

Let’s just remind everyone of the statement the NZDF made at the time they were accused of a war crime
Isn’t it time for the NZ Media to start doing their job now Jon Stephenson and Nicky Hager have done all the hard work?

I’d have thought our role in a war crime that killed and wounded 21 civilians was a bigger story than not wearing bike helmets

Deaths from Police car chases are our mass shooting public policy failure
Surely public policy should hold public safety above all else, yet Police Chase Policy manages to have an open ended kill threshold – why is that?
It’s because we are a juvenile culture with all the maturity of a can of coke-cola.

FFS – the Young Nats weren’t being racist! Ignorant, bigoted and privileged, sure – but not racist
…screaming ‘racist’ at the Young Nats for a meme that isn’t racist manages to eclipse the real issues and the substantive history of why we owe the Pacific.
