We posed a very real threat to the French Government\u2019s military programme and colonial power.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s also critical to remember that they failed to stop us. They failed to intimidate us, and they failed to silence us. Greenpeace only grew stronger and continued the successful campaign against nuclear weapons testing in the Pacific.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cForty years later, it\u2019s the oil industry that\u2019s trying to stop us. This time, not with bombs but with a legal attack that threatens the existence of Greenpeace in the US and beyond.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cBut just like in 1985 when the French bombed our ship, now too in 2025, we will not be intimidated, we will not back down, and we will not be silenced.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWe cannot be silenced because we are a movement of people committed to peace and to protecting Earth\u2019s ability to sustain life, protecting the blue oceans, the forests and the life we share this planet with,\u201d says Norman.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIn the 40 years since, the Rainbow Warrior has sailed on the front lines of our campaigns around the world to protect nature and promote peace. In the fight to end oil exploration, turn the tide of plastic production, stop the destruction of ancient forests and protect the ocean, the Rainbow Warrior has been there to this day.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cRight now the Rainbow Warrior is preparing to sail through the Tasman Sea to expose the damage being done to ocean life, continuing a decades-long tradition of defending ocean health,\u201d says Norman.<\/p>\n\n<p>This follows the Rainbow Warrior spending <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/why-rainbow-warrior-back-the-marshall-islands-40-years-on\/\">six weeks in the Marshall Islands<\/a> where the original ship carried out Operation Exodus, in which the Greenpeace crew evacuated the people of Rongelap from their home island that had been made uninhabitable by nuclear weapons testing by the US Government.<\/p>\n\n<p>In Auckland this year, several events will be held on and around the ship to mark the anniversary, including open days with tours of the ship for the public.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout
