Greenpeace, who prides themselves on civil disobedience and bannering smokestacks and U.S. national monument Mt. Rushmore gets a banner or two on the Rainbow Warrior. It is dubbed now the “Propaganda Warrior” and the “Ship of Lies”.
Surely Greenpeace would approve of this homage to their tactics, read the story at CFACT.
Global warming skeptics from CFACT yesterday pulled off an international climate caper using GPS triangulation from Greenpeace’s own on-board camera photos to locate and sail up long-side of the infamous Greenpeace vessel, Rainbow Warrior. Then in Greenpeace-like fashion, the CFACT activists unfurled a banner reading “Propaganda Warrior” which underscored how the radical green group’s policies and agenda are based on myths, lies, and exaggerations.
Here’s another photo:

BTW, since we are coming up on the one year anniversry of some Greenpeace propaganda, you might want to have a look at this Christmas video of theirs again, featuring the ship seen above.
Why not use AIS? Thousands of Somali pirates can’t be wrong.
You can see pictures of the vessel on this site and up load them too I think…

Video of the dastardly deed.

‘How do you baffle someone with… doughnuts?!’
Maybe a little Duff beer too.
>>Would that mean that a pawn check-mated a king?
Even better, ‘checkmate’ (Sheik Maat) really means ‘The King is Dead’ (no, not Elvis).
Let’s hope they GreenPeace are.
Smokey (19:13:54) : This will help out anyone over 30: click
Pardon me, but I was once surprised to find that I had been talking l33t before it had a name… so some of us ‘over 30’ were part of the process of starting it… Though, it is worth noting that the present crop of folks have added a lot of new things… BTW, this might help some folks:

Yeah, I know, too much… 50 50rry
BTW, the way you ‘baffle someone with doughnuts’ is that you show up with a delivery of them (large) and ask to be shown to the conference room or cantina… Everyone will follow the doughnuts… then your team enters unopposed. It’s a distraction technique. Works best in the morning. In the evening, a pizza works better. If they say no-on ordered it, you check w/ home and then announce: Dang it, wrong delivery. Well, they are sending a fresh pie to {foo}, so you guys might as well have these on the house: Where’s the conference room?
Boarding under ‘false colors’ as it were…
” CodeTech (18:55:29) :
Every once in a while I have to educate someone I know about the evil that is greenpeace. Usually they’re shocked to see that, by most definitions, greenpeace is a terror organization.”
———————-
By any definition, they are indeed a “soft” terror organisation. This is one of the reasons why the founder no longer has anything to do with them and why he is happy to be interviewed arguing against CO2 being the evil that it is portrayed as.
I agree with him, that there are many serious looming and real environmental disasters in this world, which require urgent and serious action, but CO2 ain’t one of them!
I love this! Talk about own medicine.
Once, a long time ago, Greenpeace were the little guy attacking the establishment. Now they ARE the establishment and CFACT are the new activists. Oh, the irony.
” Graeme From Melbourne (20:15:56) :
And what Greenpeace founder Patrick Moore has to say about Greenpeace.
Well worth reading for an insiders viewpoint.

Thanks, that was very informative. It is a real shame that Patrick was forced out of that organisation by hot-headed extremist, though well-meaning, idiots.
Greenpeace doesn’t deserve donuts…nor pizza!
A well executed prank by CFACT. A real operation would expose Greenpeace as the eco-terrorists they are. Anyone have any damning Greenpeace e-mails they’d like to share?
Pardon me, but I was once surprised to find that I had been talking l33t before it had a name…
Didn’t the cyberpunks call it haxor back in the eighties?
I like all the names mentioned here for the group otherwise known as greenpeace… eco-terrorists, Greenfleece, Yellowpeace, Sea Predator, Greenshirts etc… It is important to make sure that these folks are properly identified for exactly what they are. My own personal terminology preference is that this is a group whose mission is ‘Eco-jihad’ and the individuals that make up and support this group are thus ‘Eco-jihadists’.
‘How do you baffle someone with… doughnuts?!’
Let them take a bite or two and then tell them the doughnuts were fried in whale oil?
It’s actually “pwn3d”, “owned” with two typos.
Now I think I’ll go “Ring the Glasgow Bus Bell”!!
The Robert Plant song from the late 80’s comes to mind here – “Sailing on a Ship of Fools”
Pwned means You Lose! Everything you’ve believed in an incontrovertable farce! You Lose!
> found this statement in a comment by Shawn on an article entitled,
Climategate and other nonsense’ at Discovery Channel, by Ian O’Neill.
He’s Flipped His Lid. Ian O’Neeill
But I did know what pwned means, on my own
I only have one question put to so called “green peace”!! Where do you get the money to run this travesty???? I’m sure its not pennies but big $ to support yourself. Do you get it running drugs(coke,heroine)?? Making pornographies??
White slaving??
Well!! Where does the money come from????
The dif is that whenever GP would put up a banner it made sense and went right to the point.

So these banners are a bit vague.
How is GP full of lies and propaganda?
What exactly are they lying about?
There is an art to getting your message in just a couple quick sentances. And whoever made these anti-GP messages, failed.
