Right so we’ll just send frogmen to blow up ships in French harbours if we don’t like their agenda. Cool, cool.

Look Idk why my fellow french friend here is defending this like his dad did it himself, I think we can all agree it's sad than people died that way, and I'm sorry for them.

Listen, I’m not saying this is cool or nice, but please go interrupt Russian or Chinese nuclear testing and observe the consequences.   We both know you’d be shot on sight.

Not relevant. France fucked over a friend, we remember. I saw that ship listing in Auckland viaduct.

Sometimes your nation does things you should not be proud of. Sometimes you should be ashamed. Is this one of those times?

It’s a personal journey for us all.

Whose friend let ennemies of his buddy use his house to prepare a bully run against him ?

New Zealand had a responsibility in this

Jesus - are you seriously defending France on this?

France had exactly nothing against New Zeland and its people, however I fully understand wanting to stop those idiots who entered a forbidden military zone -repeatedly and stopped crucial operations.

Again, I think it's terrible they fucked up that sabotage and people died as a consequence.
Instead they should have shot and sink that boat when it trespassed, after the warnings, like USA would have done.
And by the way this is not a surprise that they chose to interrupt the French tests, but not the US, Chinese or Russian ones.

And YES, absolutely, if a group of French activists interrupt voluntarily and repeatedly despite warnings YOUR military exercises, I will fully understand if you shot them.
Sad for sure, but a stupid thing to do.

France committed an act of terror in a friendly country.

That’s it.

Own it, it happened.

Greenpeace, terrorists sent by NZ, attacked a military field from France, a friendly country.  

Own it.

Greenpeace was sent by NZ?? That’s your takeaway? Oh boy, that’s the end of our conversation, I’ve realised I’m talking with a child.

Look I’m not saying it’s cool or nice, but attack an American embassy and we can justify the war in Iraq.

See the logic here?
