Paramilitary operations imply quite a bit of paperwork. That doesn't just happen at a whim. Especially not on a multi-million dollar compound at the risk of legal backlash. If NZ wanted an excuse to walk their toys then there's never a shortage of drug dealers and other obvious targets with better publicity. Why would they go ballistic over bagging an overweight computer-fraudster? There is no plausible explanation other than somebody demanding special effects.
