There are many of us ANZUS Vietnam Veterans who believe the Australian, New Zealand and American Governments are the ones who researched these toxic products and gave the military the authourity to use them to defoliate the Vietnamese enviroment with out proper duty of care. Such Political Terrorism is unacceptable and to blame the troops is judgementally and Politically incorrect. I hope this Maori Politician will write a public apology to all New Zealand, Australian, American, Korean, Vietnamese War Veterans and families and correct her statement to allow these Governments to take full responsibility - rather than she sit on the fence.
