Greenpeace’s Iconic Ship Rainbow Warrior Chopped Up on 3rd World Beach

Its OK when they do it.

Hilarious story from a friend who was on the USS Enterprise when the Rainbow Warrior tried to block their path. When the Rainbow Warrior was along side the Enterprise crew aimed every fire hose down it’s smoke stack, flooding the engine with hundreds of thousands of gallons of seawater.

Who says there's never any good news these days?

That's a damned shame, really. I was hoping it would end up as a target ship for some U.S. Naval gunnery training exercises.

That being said, Japan is resuming their commercial whaling, in defiance of the international ban. Them Japanese loves them some whale meat sushi.

I bet some Saudi has the Rainbow Warrior’s metal recycled into an oil supertanker.

The Hippy cruise ship finally found where she should be. I heard more crap about the crew smoking dope and doing stuff that would curl you hair. Picked on someone who knew how to take you out.

Yeah? Where and when was that?

This is an Auckland protest against the submarine USS Haddo in January 1979.

I was on the Enterprise.
Anyone know why the Rainbow Warrior had that name?
I do.
I bet you can't find why even looking on Google.

Did you ever watch “Whale Wars” on the Animal Planet channel or whatever they call it?

I used to laugh out loud at the bumbling fools who were running those ships. I could imagine the whales thinking to themselves….”I’ll take my chances outrunning the fishing boats"

I was on the Enterprise.

When this alleged incident took place?

Anyone know why the Rainbow Warrior had that name?

Are you asking why it was named after a figure from mythology?

What figure from mythology was "Rainbow Warrior", hmm?

Faggotus Maximus, maybe?
