New Zealand police said Sunday they are to relook at the file of the 1985 Rainbow Warrior bombing, following allegations that the brother of a French presidential hopeful was involved.

But the police would not say whether the issue would be taken further.

Antoine Royal, brother of presidential hopeful Segolene Royal, told the French newspaper Le Parisien that another brother, Gerard, planted the bombs that sank the Greenpeace ship in Auckland ..

"At the time, (Gerard) was a lieutenant and agent of the DGSE (intelligence agency) in Asia. He was asked in 1985 to go to New Zealand, to Auckland harbour, to sabotage the Rainbow Warrior," Antoine was reported saying ..

1. this says it all:

"It seems there are two types of terrorists these days — with the state terrorists being the ones that get away with it," Greenpeace executive director Bunny McDiarmid said.

I am still sad about that day...

3. french intelligence got nailed long ago....

why not look into all ther french citizens murdered by the real sponsors of 911? or the role of french media in covering up the crimes of blairbush etc regards iraq? WHY do french cops feel greater loyalty to bush then their own country?
The Rainbow Warrior case is closed, even if some upper class ratwing twit/boor who happens to sukk peckers at 5 star hotels was involved, why confuse the scene now, when international crimes are unfolding and the pigmedia is franticly trying to protect its bush using media airtime to do so? In canada, the pigmedia spends endless time on the more then 20 year old bombing of air india: they know who did it, but the nazipoohs figger it's win win boring the people with a case involving sihk extremists while every day crimes are carried out under the pigmedia's carefully arranged cover! They've aspent $100 million on the goddam case, though they knew exactly what happened within days of the bombing (it cost the nazipoohs nothing to let the mass murder go ahead in 1985, so suspect the worst, if you're wise)
