Subject: Official Information request - Response to zionist terror bombings

Dear Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand,

Yesterday we saw zionist terrorists explode bombs they had planted in electronic devices supplied to Lebanon, successfully murdering their primary target, nine year old Fatima Abdullah, as well as a number of doctors and rescue workers.

1) What is the CAA going to do to ensure that electronic devices brought onto airplanes have not been interfered with by 'israelis', or supporters of 'israeli' terrorism?
2) Please provide all CAA documents and communications regarding the terrorist 'pager' bombings from the past couple days.

Yours faithfully,
Richard Wang

As previously advised, we cannot discuss the methods of detection used to prevent explosive material being carried on aircraft. Therefore, we are again refusing your request under section 6(a) of the Official Information Act 1982.

Subject: Re: 25/OIR/067 Decision Letter

Afternoon,

This doesn't appear to be responsive to my request. It is obvious that any device an 'israeli' has touched is dangerous, regardless of attempts to identify explosive material. What is being done to identify devices that may have had 'israeli' involvement in the supply chain, so they can be kept off flights/destroyed?

Yours sincerely,
Richard Wang
