Nonsense. The US has embroiled itself (and thus the deluded and confused Australians) in the self-interests of Taiwan, Japan, the Phillipines and gods know who else.

Yea I know that happens so often I can't even remember the last time.
What you lose is a lot a Yankee dollars. Just sayin'
Yea that's why NZ sent troops and some navy to fight the Taliban.

Not sure they have a navy. Oh yeah, one aircraft carrier.
Have you ever had a nuclear explosion in one of your harbours? Like Long Island for example?
But the point is that you guys attract terrorists like flies. For good reason.
Why should we want to do that too?
So you ain't gettin' no Yuan either.
Nope. Might ought a stay away from them conspiracy web sites.
Fine, stay in your cocoon, but if we (US) go down you won't be far after if you're even still around.
Until moderate Islam (if there is such a thing) reclaims their religion, the war is world wide whether you like it or not.
While just about every other country on the planet has to worry about terrorists (whether Islamic or American), we are far enough away not to have to. Added to which, we don't go out of our way to piss Muslims, or anyone else, off.
No-one to my knowledge has ever been arrested for terrorist activity in NZ except a few natives (Maoris) playing silly war games in the hills. They were acquitted.
Oops, I forget. Kim Dotcom was arrested by Swat squads, which included the FBI, for terrorising Hollywood. But he was released because everyone thought terrorising Hollywood was actually a good idea.
