"They tied him up with an incredible number of ropes. It looks like some kind of bondage movie. It's ridiculous." >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Rope binding of prisoners is a part of Bujitsu, in Japan. Many Japanese study it as a part of police or military work. There are different systems of binding, as well as knots that stay secure.Some knots and systems of binding are designed to self tighten the more a prisoner struggles. Its called "Shibari" and is part of what is called"Hojo-jitsu." Whats funny is that the speaker is trying to portray the Japanese sailors as flunkies when at least one of them really knew Hojo-jitsu.

I am glad these greenie weenies have been given as good as they hand out.

Knowing very little of Japanese culture I was unaware of this, and it's quite fascinating, thank you.  :-)

Agreed, although I would only wish to politely suggest that the eco-nazis got off awfully easy this time.

I would have had absolutely zero qualms with blowing them out of the water as the terrorists they are

That would be a really useful skill to have ...
