Maori were once the enemy of the state

I was looking at a NZ Herald from November 13th 1863 and then read today’s NZ Herald and noticed a striking resemblance. The pro war propaganda is almost identical. The 1863 article on the right is a blatant lie by the New Zealand Herald, how can Kingite Maori be rebels when they own the entire Waikato. Seven days later on 20th November 1863 the British army attacked Rangiriri Pa site killing woman and children.
