Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

FOR REASONS 1.5(B,D)
(C) The GoNZ does not object to the release of the
Multinational Force (MNF) Statement on Terrorism as written
ref A. Bronwyn Evans-Kent, Security Policy Division, New
Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT), noted
that the document was still being circulated among MFAT
divisions, but no objections were anticipated. Should there
be any concerns over specific language, these would be
provided to Washington by COB August 2. She referred to
strong public statements by the NZ Prime Minister and Foreign
Minister (ref B) regarding NZ's policy of not making
concessions to terrorists. Evans-Kent also reiterated that
the GoNZ is not engaged in Iraq as part of the Coalition, and
preferred the Statement on Terrorism with the MNF moniker.
