«Greenpeace, l'Internationale verte. De groupuscule kamikaze à multinationale de la rectitude écologiste. »Pour la marine française, il y a 10 ans, aucun doute n’ était permis : Greenpeace était stipendié par la CIA pour saboter la force de frappe française et faire rentrer l'allié indocile sous le parapluie nucléaire américain. [...] Pour d’autres, il était évident que l'Internationale verte travaillait en sous-main pour l'Internationale rouge. Greenpeace [...] ne pouvait être financé que par le KGB. Las. Depuis l'effondrement du rideau de fer et l'éclatement de l'empire soviétique, le KGB n’ a plus le vent en poupe et ses caisses sont vides. Où donc Moscou irait trouver l'argent pour soudoyer les mercenaires de la «paix verte» ? 1, record 3, French, - rectitude%20%C3%A9cologiste
