Defence Minister Ron Mark is downplaying a rocket attack near Camp Taji in Iraq as the Defence Force confirms no Kiwis were harmed.
Katyusha rockets hit roughly 3km away from the military complex - located north of Baghdad and which also hosts American forces - on Wednesday morning in an attack which local media described as "fierce". Initial reports suggested the rockets landed on the base itself.

If any nation or organisation places people in harm’s way as part of their role, then there is an obligation to provide the best protection possible – relevant and appropriate to the task and risk. Striking the balance between force protection and becoming disconnected from the public, however, requires great wisdom and acceptance of risk.

Those that know me, know I am not a big fan of Jacinda Ardern... however she is allowed a holiday, even if it is in Aussie it can be where ever she wants to visit.

New Zealand is not under any state emergency at present... so she is spending money and promoting tourism in Queensland... isn't that what you want...

Seymour, leader of the ACT Party, said he's concerned the curriculum doesn't allow for students to debate the science, telling Magic Talk he fears it's designed to suppress opposing views.
