That Nuclear Free status meant any nuclear powered or nuclear armed vessel was barred from entering and any vessels of types normally carrying such weapons had to be searched.

Let's hope that the test will never come.  But I fear that if an enemy wanted to make NZ a *nuked* zone, it will take more than harsh words to stop it.  So, that policy is akin to pissing yourself in a dark suit.  You get a warm feeling, no one else notices.

Well the "mightiest military in the world" certainly had to wake up and take notice.

I love this line though: "if an enemy wanted to make NZ a *nuked* zone"
That's a pretty big "if". Between geographic isolation and a distinct lack of enemies (outside of any "westerner" associations) I feel rather safe.

No, any negative spinoff from the nuclear free stance is purely economical and mostly just involving exports to the US AFAIK. Even that is arguable against the grander scheme of things where maintaining such ideals as this stance adds up to highlighting NZ as a place unwilling to make enemies and a safe place to visit by extension. Considering tourism is the biggest foreign dollar earner that works in our favour. ;)
