The bombings were not directed against the government of New Zealand. Green
Peace; however, should be allowed to festoon the Eiffel Tower with Save
The Whale buttons.-- Retailiation in this case would be seeing to it that
the perpetrators are identified and brought to justice and that compensation
be paid for the lost ship and to the family of the man who was killed in
the blast. Dealing with a Western Democracy, a segment of which has gone
paranoid, is different than dealing with a group of renegades that try to
influence public policy by terrorist acts.
