The Maori are in OEF and OIF. Most NZ units have Maori troopers, especially NZ SAS.
And the American Indian is (as always) well represented in US forces, especially Spec Ops.
Amerinds may be the most clear thinking Americans. "You attack the People. We come after you." They honor the warrior.

We Highland Scots and Irish have dealt with this for years . . .
. . . unfortunately we also have the gene for alcoholism . . . but I guess that's so we wouldn't conquer the world.

The last family reunion I went to was sort of a drag. We all got too drunk to fight.

"Dr Rod Lea, a New Zealand researcher, and his colleagues told an Australian genetics conference that Maori men had a "striking over-representation" of monoamine oxidase - dubbed the warrior gene - which they say is strongly associated with aggressive behaviour...."
Monoamine oxidase isn't a "gene", it's an enzyme.
Is it the reporter, or the scientist, who is scientifically illiterate?? I suspect the former.
