New Zealand's Free Liberal Foreign Policy

An interesting story about how New Zealand's rather modest defense budget and decision to stay out of military conflicts has allowed the nation to keep its military budget quite small and retain its independence on the global stage. Something tells me that because of policies like these (as compared to Washington's belligerence) Wellington is pretty far down on Bin Laden's list of targets. Oh, and before you think of New Zealand as a bunch of socialists, it must be noted that Heritage Foundation ranked the nation third on its 2004 index of economic freedom, a full seven slots hire than the U.S. of A.
