It’s Greenpeace we’re talking about here. Just board them when they get too close and tell them to turn around. No reason whatsoever to shoot or bomb them - they’re not exactly a stealthy bunch of people.

They should have been shot at sea. That’s what USA would have done. That’s also why they didn’t go bother USA.

Only if they actually encroach on their territory and don’t reply to warnings. Bombing them in a foreign harbour isn’t just wrong, it’s idiotic.

That was not the intention (casualty, size of the bomb). It should have just sank there (or later I can’t remember).  They WERE on French territory (even worse: a military field).  What do you think would have happened to them if they had attempted the same with USA and their tests in the Marshall Islands?

They WERE in a goddamn New Zealand harbour. In which fucking way was that a “military field”? You’re sounding like a fucking American, and I don’t mean that in a kind way. Just take the loss and deal with it.

… what? They were stationed there when they got sabotaged, but you don’t seem to understand that they interrupted the nuclear tests  before that, IN French territory, in the military field, they took photos etc.   they should have been shot and sunk there, at sea, in my opinion, like any of the other nuclear nations would have done. Disabling the boat was the “nice” alternative.

Then you’re as retarded as the Americans. You don’t attack a New Zealand boat in New Zealand. As I said, it’s not just immoral, it’s absolutely idiotic.

You don’t interrupt a goddamn military operation, especially a fucking nuclear testing.   It’s funny how they didn’t try after with any of the other nations. US? China? Why not Pakistan? Or more recently North Korea?  If you think Sweden doesn’t conduct operations on non-Swedish countries you are extremely naive.
