Analysis: The impact of Covid-19 in accelerating radicalisation and fuelling conspiracy theories could be felt for years to come, spy agencies say. Intelligence agencies say there is a realistic possibility the Covid-19 pandemic will accelerate online radicalisation over the next year and have a detrimental effect on the broader threat environment in the medium- to long-term . The greater prominence of conspiracy theories and extremist sentiment stirred up by the pandemic, as well as more time to spend online during lockdowns, has created greater opportunities for New Zealanders to be exposed to conspiracy theories, extremist content and disinformation on the internet, the Security Intelligence Service (SIS) found in its annual report. This, in turn, could accelerate radicalisation and exacerbate or fuel Covid-19 pandem

Abject failure : New Zealand s involvement in Afghanistan War questioned Newshub 17/02/2021 Dan Satherley, Perry Wilton © Video - The AM Show; Images - The AM Show/Getty Canberra-based Australian journalist Olivia Leeming on The AM Show last year, talking about the Afghanistan War.
As New Zealand prepares to pull its troops out of Afghanistan after 20 years of war, experts here are questioning what it was all for. The deployments to Afghanistan have been one of the longest-running in our history, and I wish to acknowledge the 10 New Zealanders who lost their lives in the line of duty, and the more than 3500 New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) and other agency personnel, whose commitment to replace conflict with peace will always be remembered, she said.
