Good god, I can't believe people are *still* attempting to flog this
Greenpeace=Earth First! dead horse!  Anyone who has followed this base for
more than a month or two should have heard thoe whole deabate several
times.
 
>.  One of Earth First!'s recent actions was an attempt to blow
>up a nuclear power plant in Arizona.
 
First off, I fail to see how this connects to Greenpeace.  As has already
been noted, this event was an FBI sting operation set up but y an
individual called Mike Fain who was using then  name Mike Tait at the
time.  There was no "blowing up" of the plant.  Knocking over power lines
leadying *away* from the plant is *quite* different.  Obviously this is a
case of purposeful and blatent exaggeration to garner better ratings on
behalf of Danish TV-2.  Well, tommorrow I go into my office at GP to
balance our petty cash account.  If I'm off by nine bucks am  going to
wind up on Danish TV as having sifoned millions into private Swiss
accounts?  Not that big a leap when you look at the blatant
misrepresentation of ef! issue above.
