I don't like whaling either (and Japan doesn't need it - they have plenty to eat), but I would love to see a boatload of Greenpeace Luddites get sent to the bottom. The same organization also tried to interfere with the peaceful transfer of nuclear waste by ship to the Tsukuba recycling plant. In other words, Greenpeace whines about the "problem" of nuclear waste at the same time as it gets in the way of Japan's solution to the same problem.

Like I said, I'm no tree-hugger and I do not generally support Greenpeace or the Sea Shepherd Society, or their methods.
As it pertains to whale hunting, though, they have my full endorsement -- with a wish that our Governments would have the balls to send a frigate-or-two to do the job that an unarmed civilian vessel is doing, quite admirably.
