More info on terrorism arrests

Good God, the weapons alone seized seem to more than adequate justification for the raids yesterday.  The Dom Post reports that naplam , molotov cocktails and assault rifles are amongst the weapons seized.

One of the bombs was detonated eight days ago in a training exercise.  sounds like a lot more than just a few idiots mouthing off, with the Police alleging different cells planning to hit different targets in co-ordinated attacks.

In another story about the Wellington arrests,  the four arrested are described as pacifists.  How this will mesh with being charged with possessing , large-calibre semi-automatic weapons, Molotov cocktails, shotguns and rifles I do not know.  The most well armed pacifists I have heard of.  Maybe they are Swiss?

I can't believe we are reading about this happening in NZ, not some other country.
