"The vessel itself was built in 1993 by IHI shipyard in Tokyo and was formerly used as a research ship by the Japanese Government"  :doh:

Haha nice one, SSCS!  :2thumbs:

Oh dear. More dangerous lunatics on the open sea. I wonder how long before they manage to get this one impounded/sunk/wrecked.

As much as I do not approve of whaling, these people do the ecological organisations around the world no good with their quite frankly bloody dangerous and illegal antics.

Remember that the Captain of an ocean going vessel is allowed by internationally recognised law to take whatever means is necessary- including the use of leathal force- to defend his ship, cargo, crew and passengers. And if that includes ramming these idiots and sending them to meet the general belgrano, then so be it.

To avoid a discussion

Surely discussion is the whole point of a forum?

Otherwise it just ends up with people posting propaganda for a bunch of people who use ecology as an excuse for terrorist actions.

History shows that discussions about Japanese whaling/Sea Shepherd protests are eventually closed here..
 (you could say it's frowned upon)    ;)
Besides, this topic is about new Sea Shepherd ships..

Clanky, clearly he is referring to me.

However, posting fears over what will happen to these bunch of lunatics if they are ever allowed to take their NEW SHIP to SEA will result in their stupidity being REVEALED (or reviled?) and they will of course be SHEPHARDed to port by the arresting authority of whatever area they engage in their eco terrorism.


THere- how about that? ALL words of the topic thread in the statement above. Off topic? What a load of old molluscs.

It's not a lack of knowledge of sailing which is the issue, it's a lack of human decency and a certain knowledge that not only are they right, but that them being right is more important than anything else.

Is their head idiot still in jail?  Hopefully the rest will follow soon.

People don't give money to Somalian pirates why should they give it these criminals?

Quite right, it's about human decency. Why should we care about whales?  There are enough of them anyway.
What better place to hunt and kill them than in an International Whale Sanctuary (under the pretense of Research)?
What a strange dance is performed every year in the Antarctic, the Japanese catch whales that hardly anyone back home eats (except maybe some old folks), Sea Shepherd do their best to prevent them doing so. I suspect some kind of private war is going on..
Maybe they can sell some whale meat to China, tell them it's libido-stimulating.. The Chinese like that..
Be it rhino-horn, elephant penis or tiger testicles, they'll eat it.. ;)

ps: I do agree that a solution should preferably be found through diplomatic means..

As these topics normally get locked for getting political...

Personally, I agree with what SSCS are working towards, but I don't agree with how they do it.

 Let the Japanese kill as many as they want, and let the "idiots" of Sea Shepherd  go on another protest against dolphin slaughter, shark-finning, tuna fishing, or some other crazy campaign..


If they blew up planes for their cause they would be classed as terrorists, ramming ships is no better.

I agree that whaling needs to be controlled, but it needs to be done by political means, not by terrorism.  If Sea Shepherd were to stop whaling by terrorism then it would be a temporary solution which would only last as long as the terrorism lasted, a political solution will be permanent.

Those who blow up planes are criminals who are treated as such by the courts, those who commit acts of piracy at sea should be treated in the same manner.  No cause justifies what they are doing or how they act, in the end they harm the causes that they fight for.

A U.S. court has ruled that Sea Shepherd keep a distance of at least 450 meters from Japanese whaling vessels.
To comply with this, Sea Shepherd will effectively be mere spectators, making their campaign rather pointless..
