Greenpeace are Idiots. Free speech

Greenpeace are Idiots.

Free speech is a basic right in our country. Unfortunately, some elements in our society think that means that anything goes, as long as it’s accompanied by a message. Free Speech means what it says. It doesn’t give you the right to sabotage, piracy or otherwise hinder the actions of groups you are opposed to.

Actions like those yesterday highlight just how idiotic Greenpeace are. How can they be sure the RAN knew what the mission of the boats was? As Gareth notes:

Should someone have told them that the main role of the navy is to remove mines that impede the humanitarian effort? Do the Greens want the mines to stay in place or do they want humanitarian aid to get through?

Of course the obvious answer is: They don’t give a shit. They just want to get on the news no matter what happens. The only way the protest could have been more successful for Greenpeace is if the RAN Vessel opened fire on their boats. Not only would that mean worldwide coverage for Greenpeace, but a huge increase in their membership out of sympathy for the “innocent” victims.

I use the word “innocent” in quotation marks for a good reason. Members of Greenpeace and affiliated NGO’s are guilty of many crimes, ranging from Piracy to outright Wetworks.

Apart from the obvious illegality of actions against Warships, Greenpeace could quite easily be digging their own graves through their actions. Fedayeen in Iraq are already conducting suicide attacks disguised as Red Crescent Ambulances. How long before the first suicide attack under a Greenpeace Flag?

Boarding naval vessels is possibly the most stupid thing I can think of at this point in time. At least they had the good sense to do it to an Australian vessel this time. God knows what would have happened if they tried it on a US warship, and they’ve already been given a pretty clear message by the French.
