Gaza- The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, has highly appreciated the daring position of the New Zealand government against the Zionist entity after capturing two Mossad (Zionist intelligence) agents while trying to obtain forged New Zealand passports.
A responsible source in the Movement, in a press release distributed today, urged all countries to follow the model of the New Zealand stand in adopting firm measures against the Zionist entity’s violations of laws on foreign lands to achieve certain targets.
The source explained that it was not the first time for Zionist security apparatuses especially the Mossad to trek illegitimate means to achieve criminal acts.
Numerous Mossad agents were captured in other countries while trying to obtain forged passports, he said, recalling that the two elements that tried to assassinate Khaled Mishaal, Hamas political bureau chief, in Amman in 1997 were carrying Canadian passports.
The source affirmed that such methods revealed that the Zionist security apparatuses were facing problems in their work forcing them to pursue indirect means to infiltrate into the Arab and Islamic arenas to carry out criminal operations.
The incident revealed that the Mossad was sending its agents under the cover of foreign nationals into the Arab countries to liquidate Palestinian resistance leaders atop of which came the Hamas leaders, the source said, asking the Arab countries to be on the watch for such attempts and not to allow the Zionist intelligence to violate their sovereignty and dignity.

,,, what she has to do now is make a statement along the lines "equivalent agents from any other country, with the same intentions, will face the same treatment." She should have been quicker off the starting blocks, but maybe endorsement from Hamas is what she wants. She's certainly enacting legislation against Christian values in New Zealand, so I can't imagine her being too sympathetic towards Jews. Her Minister for Foreign Affairs, Phil Goff, visited Arafat last year.
Talk about Marxist cliches! The language is sooooo SDS.

how would you react if Mossad agents were caught trying to get false entry documents to the U.S.? Would it be ok because it's Israel?
Maybe NZ would be willing to take a few boatloads of Gaza residents that Arafat would like to be rid of.
Thanks to peace-nik agitation for total disarmament, New Zealand is wide open to a 9-11 style air attack. The Royal New Zealand Air Force has no armed aircraft capable of intercepting a hijacked jet. BTW, the slogan on their website (I kid you not) is "Bring it on."
With something akin to defeatist prescience, the appeasenik/Kumbaya element managed to abolish the RNZAF combat force just a few weeks before the 9-11 attacks.
If they're doing it to kill terrorists, that would be wonderful. In fact, I'd support making it part of our state policy. The only problem is that a U.S. passport would get them in at least as much trouble as an Israeli passport.
On this one the Israeli agents broke the rules and got caught. That's the risks of the job. It goes on all the time, everybody knows it, tempest in a teapot.
,,, this acclaim from Hamas won't sit well with Kiwis at all. She's got some fast leg work to do in negating it or playing it down, otherwise she can kiss any progress on a free trade deal with the US goodbye. She's got a lot to juggle right now before she loses the next election. Kudos from the armpit of the middle east won't win her votes.
,,, are you aware that in the ever increasing size of New Zealand's socialist government there's actually a Minister for disarmament?
The US will never turn it's back on NZ, we have too much commonality in history, besides, we like you guys. We'll be trading partners free trade and all.
That might be pushing the envelope a bit, but after WWII the US renamed the Department of War the Department of Defense (because it sounds nicer).
The way it worked here first election when she took power was that Kiwis wanted Jenny Shipley out and really didn't have the slightest clue of what they were voting in. Subsequently, the opposition Party [NATIONAL] was in the gutter and only really rose from the ashes under new leadership early this year... with significant gusto.
I believe NZ's concern is that Israel would use the passports in a manner that might eventually make NZ appear complicit in Israel's wars.
While I don't question, or even have a problem with, Israel's 'Indian Wars', I can appreciate other nation's desires to not be dragged into them. I wish my nation wasn't.
