>the crew did not react to the first explosion as the agents had expected. While the ship was initially evacuated, some of the crew returned to the ship to investigate and film the damage. A Portuguese-Dutch photographer, Fernando Pereira, returned below decks to fetch his camera equipment. At 11:45 p.m., the second bomb went off. Pereira drowned in the rapid flooding that followed, and the other ten crew members either safely abandoned ship on the order of Captain Peter Willcox or were thrown into the water by the second explosion. The Rainbow Warrior sank four minutes later.
This man was LITERALLY too dumb to live.

Well in fairness, how the fuck was he supposed to know there was a second bomb?

Tbh French did nothing wrong.

Quite honestly, I never understood why the French even bothered. I mean, sure, Greenpeace can be annoying and smug and self-rightous, but you're really going to sic intelligence agents on them to bomb their ship? Why?

History is protagonist centered morality.

Delusions of self-importance, the same reason they wave their dick around in Francophone Africa.

but Mali specifically asked them for help in dealing with the rebels

Because it is not in the best interest of press relations to blow up a Greenpeace boat with a nuclear test bomb. It is the far superior tactic to blow up the boat with conventional bombs.

Hello Nigel

Always expect a second bomb.

You don't go back onto a damaged ship. Poor guy though. Legit camera equipment is dumb expensive and he was probably trying to prevent having to shell out thousands of dollars to replace them.

Because fuck New Zealand

>everyone crying at New Zealand, who unironically harbored terrorists
Geez, we reimbursed them with more than they'd deserved anyways by ending the commercial we'd been waging against them drowning the EU markets in their low-quality meat and butter.
Though yes, Mitterand was a idiot to through with this. Oh well once a Vichyist, always a retard.

This. France is USI: the country

who cares, ecologists are not human people

Because we deserved it

Except the people on board the Eco-Warrior had nothing to do with Greenpeace's "terrorism."

>he thinks the french are just pretending to do something in africa just for show
>he thinks the french aren't totally running the place just like during colonialism
good goy
this loss of prestige that france had is probably a blessing, it can exploit half of africa and no one even notices it kek

It did. The French Defence Minister had to resign.

*Rainbow Warrior.

Just like ISIS militants have nothing to do with ISIS' terrorism.

what sort of people are they then

Cela

inhuman ones

and now France can perma extend it's stay in Mali for indefinite periods.

win/win
