Notes: | Adapted by Dean Parker from the book by Nicky Hager | |||||
Synopsis: | "Killing Taliban is my business, and business is good!" The so-called 'War on Terror' has been the longest foreign war in NZ history, yet most New Zealanders know almost nothing about our part in it. Since the 9/11 attacks the NZ military have successfully duped both public and government over the true nature of our involvement in America's illegal invasion of Afghanistan, hiding behind a cloud of bogus PR tales of 'peacekeeping' and 'humanitarian aid'. As much as John Key wants to dismiss Hager's book as a work of fiction , the fact is throughout history whenever America calls, the NZ military answers, regardless of public opinion, morality or even the express commands of government. | |||||
