Stuff.co.nz 12 Jan 2012 Two high-level delegations of United States lawmakers have slipped quietly in and out of New Zealand for a series of meetings including a first-hand look at Christchurch’s earthquake damage.
A group of Congressmen spent three days in the country, visiting Wellington and then Christchurch. They left on Tuesday.
Another group of seven senators was in the country at the weekend.
The visits were not advised to the media, but were confirmed after US Government planes were spotted on the tarmac at Wellington and Christchurch airports.
A Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority spokesman said staff had accompanied the delegation, including seven US Congressmen, into the central-city red zone.
NORTHLAND NEW ZEALAND CHEMTRAILS WATCH 
maybe they are surveying christchurch, to see where they are going to station their military base that will be close to their base in antartica.
Maybe they were looking at where they’re going to set up their fracking installations. NZ has already granted permits for the gas giants to start fracking for oil and gas in Canterbury… All of Canterbury… These permits were granted in early December. Money before people : ( John Key’s slip-ups in a recent speech had him saying “Christchurch was a man-made” disaster twice… and then correcting it to say “natural disaster”.
I forgot to add a couple of links or your interest:
