The anti-whaling organisation Sea Shepherd will not contest the Southern Ocean against Japanese whalers this season, Captain Paul Watson has announced, accusing hostile governments in the US, Australia and New Zealand of acting in league with Japan against the protest vessel.
Sea Shepherd has been obstructing Japanese whaling vessels in the Southern Ocean each year since 2005, but Watson said the cost of sending vessels south, Japans increased use of military technology to track them, and new anti-terrorism laws passed specifically to thwart Sea Shepherds activities made physically tracking the ships impossible.

Sell Steve Irwin for scrap too. “That’ll leave a mark!”
Yeah, looks that way. Perhaps Bob Barker has selected a new "cause" to support.

Hi.
“I was sorely disappointed when the Russians didnt give them a long term in Siberia”
I thought we wouldn’t be hearing from them again.
Well, one could only hope.

Is that where the term “BOOM!” comes from?
It’s amazing more of these seafaring shitlibs haven’t been killed. The ocean doesn’t suffer fools.
Ya but they were fun to watch.. libs leading libs is like watching idiots leading morons.
Did somebody hang some pirates somewhere?
My thought is that Japan should arm its whalers with miniguns or RPGs.
The Japs should have mounted little 3” naval guns to deal with green piracy, from a range of 2-8 miles.
I once saw a bumper sticker,”NUKE the WHALES”.
Did not know it had gone this far?
2002 : Watson tells Animal Rights 2002 Conference in Washington DC that if a person dies from one of his actions, he would consider it collateral damage. He believes it is not possible to commit violence against non-sentient objects Property damage is not violence.
A few highlights (low lights? there are so many it's difficult to figure out which is the darkest & lowest) from http://www.targetofopportunity.com/paul_watson.htm;
The Environmentalist Connection Environmentalists love him. His opponents hate him. Of course Environmentalists love him. This is just another example of the terrorist activities and tactics that these organizations use daily. More proof that these are not "Non-Violent Activists" as they would have the public believe. Who says that these people are not terrorists?
Watson is a terrorist who has said that "earthworms are far more valuable than people." It is that attitude that explains why he has started the careers of some of the most violent animal-rights activists. SHAC terrorists Rodney Coronado and Joshua Harper have both served as crewmembers on SSCS expeditions.

... Here are a few other words of wisdom from Paul Watson showing what he really believes.
"Nazi propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels once remarked that if a lie is told often enough people will begin to see the lie as truth."
-- Paul Watson"Human communities should be maintained in small population enclaves within linked wilderness ecosystems. No human community should be larger than 20,000 people and separated from other communities by wilderness areas."
-- Paul Watson"We need to radically and intelligently reduce human populations to fewer than one billion. We need to eliminate nationalism and tribalism and become Earthlings. And as Earthlings, we need to recognize that all the other species that live on this planet are also fellow citizens and also Earthlings. This is a planet of incredible diversity of life-forms; it is not a planet of one species as many of us believe."
-- Paul Watson
That self-righteous piece of squat should be squid food.
