The video shows the Sea Shepherd approaching a whale-killing vessel with the carcass of a dead Minke whale carried on their port side amidships. Not sure if the Sea Shepherd intended to ram or just try to foul the whale carcass before it could be delivered to the factory ship. I did note that the camera ship doing the videoing was water-cannoning the bridge of the Sea Shepherd which likely blinded the crew, probably causing a collision.

The Sea Shepherd was as likely to be badly damaged or sunk in that incident.

You seem way too gullible - and I can't fathom why you're siding with the arrogant, law-breaking Japanese.

If you were watching the show that aired after the ramming there is discussion between Capt. Crunch and Wispy Beard that they INTEND to ram the Japanese ship. Piracy pure and simple. Terrorism under today’s definition and just plain STUPID on the high seas. And yes the hippie boat breached the hull above the water line but was still taking on water - putting all on board in unnecessary damage. “nonviolent” not by a long shot. Also the hippies try and foul the propellers of the Japanese ship(s) - again and act of piracy and sheer stupidity in the open sea.

I'll offer a clue to you on the dumb label. If you can't tell that the Sea Shepherd intentionally rammed that ship in that video you have more issues than just hating the Japanese 70 years after WWII ended. Good day.
