I Am An Acquaintance of Terrorists
Well, one alleged terrorist anyway. Name suppression on the 'Urerewa 17' was lifted late last week and it turns out that I know, or have met, at least one of them in the peace activist scene: Valerie Morse.
I met Valerie in 2003, I think, at the Social Forum Aotearoa when she was heading up Peace Action Wellington. I don't know her well but my impression was that she was sensible, level-headed, and dedicated to antiwar causes.
I can't really picture her with rifles and napalm calling for bloody revolution.
