New Zealand sacks diplomat who questioned Trump’s understanding of WWII

Are you talking about the same Al Jazeera that Arab Islamist countries despotic leaders hate so much that Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Jordan, Libya, Bahrain and others added 'immediate and permanent closure of Al Jazeera' to their shortlist of primary demands during the Qatari diplomatic crisis from 2017-2021?

The same Al Jazeera English that's won multiple Peabody awards, the New York Festival TV & Film broadcaster of the year in 2022 & 2023 and the Royal Television Society Award in 2021 & 2022?

P.s. its OK I know they're trolling, I just like to spread education for others who may glance over OP's post and take it at face value.

save some adjectives for the rest of us

Gaben's threatened them with VAC bans.

The guy who did the firing put out this press release about how New Zealand supports Ukraine so it's safe to say they are not following the Trump playbook.

Ultranationalism in New Zealand seems to have its own flavour, rather than blindly following US Conservatives. That politician is Indigenous, supports Ukraine, and spoke at the UN against the genocide in Gaza.

Maybe. But they renewed their support for Ukraine after the Trump-Zelenskyy meeting

regardless of internal politics, the censure of such comments seems like NZ is happy make an appearance as an american lap dog in this light 🙁

This may be more to do with opportunistic score settling than alignment with Trump

It might, but given that the guy doing the firing is the founder and still leader of the ultranationalist hive of bigots known as New Zealand First, I think it's beyond safe to assume that he's aligned with Trump on at least one issue..

The Hugo Boss uniforms do make them look much better than the opposing armies.

That ambassador is a former high-ranking politician from a party that is not currently in power. This may be more to do with opportunistic score settling than alignment with Trump.

when trump watches ww2 movies, he's cheering for the germans.

New Zealand gov only cares about Billionaire recluses now.

Prime minster Luton is such a fucken spanner.

Worst is the ACT party - like the Germans AfD

You’re not able to free-think. You are the face of New Zealand

Like many of the things ultranationalist scumbags like Winston Peters say, that speaks volumes about why jingoism is ruinous for the countries it purports to lionize..
