  1. Terrorism in New Zealand by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on US Expands Fingerprint and Mugshot Program for Visitors

    As you may know there was one famous act of terrorism that occured in Auckland Harbor: The sinking of Greenpeace's ship, the Rainbow Warrior.

    While it it well known where the terrorists are, they have still not been turned over to the New Zealand authorities.

    Man, I have mod points, and yet there is no "-1 doesn't get the joke" modifier. Weird.

    Yeah, France rules. They ruled everything. All our miltary victories earned us nothing.

    Except I never saw the Nazis goose-stepping past the Washington Monument...

    Here's a thought: all your previous victories come to nothing when you let the most evil army in the history of mankind waltz into your capital. That resets things to zero. And what has France done since we liberated Paris? Oh yeah, sunk some environmentalists' boat. . Very impressive.

    One of their biggest backers is the V. Kann Rasmussen Foundation, which regularly donates to many other groups such as Greenpeace, labeled by some as ecoterrorists.
    So does that make the DGSE (French Secret Service) counter-ecoterrorists, or just plain old criminals?

    I love that 'labeled by some' phrase, by the way. It's a very useful tool for discrediting something when you don't have the balls to take responsibilty for doing so yourself. If you did THAT, why, you actually might have to provide some evidence to back your claim, and you can't have that, can you? "Yes, it's been labeled by some that way. Not by me of course..." Pathetic.

    Does no one else remember Pearl Harbor? Or is it just short attention spans? Yeah, that was a long time ago, but I don't recally France ever actually attacking the US at all.

    They did carry out terror attacks in New Zealand, who are a close allie of the US... no wait a minute, they won't let the US bring nuclear weapons into the country, islamo-commie bastards!

    To say that the French are terrorists because of some random French idiots is kind of like saying Americans are terrorists because of Timothy McVeigh and the Unabomber.

    Well, the French certainly aren't the only western country to have a history of state sponsored terrorist acts but the "random idiots" who destroyed the Rainbow Warrior in New Zealand's waters and caused one death (it could easily have been more, others managed to escape) were working for the French government.

    I don't think any court has officially concluded that the French Government were responsible but I think you'd have to be fairly gullible to doubt it. Undeniably those convicted were agents of the French Government. Being as generous as possible to the French Government you'd have to say that commissioned officers that they assigned to assist their security forces were people who planted bombs in their spare time.

    I'm sure you can dig up serious wrong doing by most powerful countries though. And that doesn't justify it of course.

    There is absolute Freedom in France?

    I'd like to sell my nazi materials in France and my books that prove there never was a holocaust?

    Can I do that in Paris?

    I didn't think so.

    I wonder if there is absolute freedom for those who protest against French violations of international law?

    Probably not.

    Before you get sceptic about just visit Paris once and see with your own eyes.

    I've seen all I need. I'll have to decline your offer.
