The article's money quote (buried deep) on why Japan put out an arrest warrant:
"...but skipped bail after learning that he was also sought for extradition by Japan, which has accused him of endangering whalers’ lives during operations in the Antarctic Ocean"

I hope he escapes. Japanese whalers are as bad as Chinese fishing fleets in skirting the laws and treaties. They claim the whaling is “scientific research”. And that whales are killing the marine ecosystem by eating too much plankton. Total bullcrap.

I agree. I used to make fun of him and his crew till I started thinking about it. These guys are putting their asses on the line to try to stop the killing of whales. I haven't done anything like that.
And the Japs calling it scientific research is like the dims using "science" for their global warming garbage.

Enjoy the fermented whale blubber serve in Japan’s prisons.

He’s a terrorist. Ship him to Japan to be tried.

Same here. In a sane world, the Japanese captains would be captured and prosecuted.

That reminds me of a t-shirt from an ad in National Lampoon. It showed a mushroom cloud on top of a whale and the slogan “Nuke the Whales!”

Who cares. I hope Watson’s woke ass rots in a Japanese prison.

To: ohioman
Why? Do you think Japanese should be able to lie and flout the treaties? Or do you just want as many whales killed as possible. It makes no sense to go after Watson and let the Nips skate for their own violations.
For extra credit are you upset about that last 100 buffalo surviving?
