Greenpeace under RICO investigation

| No Comments

Busted by their co-founder. From Dr. Patrick Moore writing at WUWT:

BREAKING: Greenpeace co-founder reports Greenpeace to the FBI under RICO and wire-fraud statutes
Greenpeace, in furtherance of what is in effect its war against every species on the planet, has now turned to what, on the face of things, looks to me like outright breach of the RICO, wire-fraud, witness-tampering and obstruction-of-committee statutes. I have called in the FBI.

Greenpeace appears to have subjected Dr Will Happer, Cyrus Fogg Brackett Professor of Physics at Princeton University, to a maladroit attempt at entrapment that has badly backfired on it.

The organization I co-founded has become a monster. When I was a member of its central committee in the early days, we campaigned – usually with success – on genuine environmental issues such as atmospheric nuclear tests, whaling and seal-clubbing.

When Greenpeace turned anti-science by campaigning against chlorine (imagine the sheer stupidity of campaigning against one of the elements in the periodic table), I decided that it had lost its purpose and that, having achieved its original objectives, had turned to extremism to try to justify its continued existence.

What follows is an in-detail report of how Greenpeace was trying to discredit a leading scientist just before he was scheduled to deliver testimony before Congress.

Patrick quotes from emails and gives a lot of background detail. Greenpeace is soooo busted on this one.

Good - of course, our FBI will be responding in 3... 2... 1...
