Because forcing the FBI to give another country back anything is like demanding US to get their soldiers out of your country. You can ask, demand, negotiate all you want; however time and again US has proven US gets what it wants, because it is above every other country in the world.

Now if it's was New Zealands own special forces, and it had no global bearing on the case, than it would have been just that assuming the raids were still considered illegal.
The FBI or any U.S. Govt. agency are no more that THUGS ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thugs ), who PREY on countries & people that can't fight for their rights here in USA or anywhere in the world.
So here it's ONCE AGAIN why people around the world and even their own citizens hate the U.S. Government.
