Kia Ora,
Tonight is the All Blacks vs Wallabies Rugby test here in Christchurch & it is being used to test security & other systems prior to the Rugby World Cup 2011.
National news has just shown police going through the Stadium checking for explosives. If there is a real terrorist threat then that has to be mainly carried out by the NZ Security Industry to free up Police resources that maybe required elsewhere.
Two issues. The police don't like to let go of these roles & the NZ Security Industry in general has no idea what to look for. Those of us that do, are continously told we know nothing about security.
Today I was visited by an old army mate who drives taxis at present. We were talking about how roads have been blocked off prior to the game. Of course he was more concerned about his taxi business, until I pointed out the likely terrorist threat & where they would strike if they did under this new format.
Immediately he switched on to how it would be used.
Just after that I went shopping & bumped into another former comrade who had carried out a stint demining on behalf of the UN.
The threat & how to carry it out was so obvious to us, but coverage just seen showed no one was prepared. If you haven't trained to think that way or experienced the way these attacks are carried out, then it won't seem obvious.
As the second person said "it is not if, but when a terrorist attack occurs."
