Good! Lucky the JDF doesn’t send a ship to sink the Sea Shepherd. Americans need to learn to mind their own business all over the world! Oh by the way Green is BS!

The Hypocracy of the anti whaling loby make me laugh ,Every time you eat fish ,tuna ,sardines ,cod etc you are suporting a slaughter far greater than any whaling operation does.

Europe and North america (Usa and Canada)have sucessfully decimated their fish stocks by basically raping the sea, Australia and Newzealand have had to cut the qoutas by more than 50% because of this behaviour . Trawl fishing is the most destrutive form of fishing there is we kill these fish in there hundreds of millions every year. Fishing vessels dump thousands of tonnes of dead fish every day because they are not the target species.

People get caught up in the emotional BS that surounds whaling what we the so called “Civilised West” do is a hundred times worse than the japanese whaling.

Remove the plank from your own eye befor you attempt to remove the splinter from anothers eye.

Are you lot actually in favour of killing whales? Reading the comments here it seems that you are!

Personally, the only shame I find in all of this is that the governments and navies of the world can’t deal with the whalers. It’s not the job of civilians to do a military job. What a pity that the ‘pirates’ have more guts than politicians and the armed forces. What the Japanese are doing is illegal. To call their activities ‘research’ is simply ridiculous. The only reason they are allowed to get away with their crimes is because the world is frightened of the economic consequences of opposing them.

To call the whalers ‘fishermen’ is also ridiculous. Whales are mammals, not fish, and I’ve never seen anyone fish with an explosive harpoon. It’s more usual to use either a net or a line and hook.

Japan has over 4000 tonnes(yes it’s spelled corrrectly)frozen and gets the meat and blubber of 175 Minke Whales shipped to it each year from Iceland. They hunt only for export!! There is NO DEMAND AT HOME!!Several loads are caught being shipped thru europe. This is in addition to the almost 1000 whales that the Japanese are trying to kill themselves. Japan kills whales because they dont want to be told what to do by the 88 Nation IWC. Japan has even been caught buying votes at the IWC convention in June of 2010. Without the Sea Shepards there would not be a whale in the entire ocean.

The “Bat Boat” as you call it was designed as a world class speed boat that had been used by its prior owner to try to set the world record to circumnavigate the earth. The Ady Gil was black because of the kevlar and radar absorbing paint that was used. Education is a wonderful thing.Save the Earth, Save the whales. BTW, whales live in family groups and travel from around the world to mate. If you think that killing them is okay or even cool, how would you feel if I came to your home and just slaughtered members of your family?..just a question for you morons to think about when your not using that other brain cell.

you are stupid. they came to a stop because they were nearly out of gas and didnt want to use anymore because they needed it to go up to the Bob Barker to refuel. wow. do you really think that this planet would be better without whales? think about it.

Bio diesel is made from veggie oil not ethonal . The protesters need to use pulse sonar and chase the whales away. That prevents them from killing the whale and both crews go home. Pulse sonar scares the (;://: out of whales navy tried and true.:)

you guy are all stupid. Remember that the Ady Gil was low on Fuel and was waiting to be refueled. Also the Ady Gil prop fowled the Nissian Maru (the fctory ship). The ship that collided with the Ady Gil was the Shonan Maru. By maritime law the vessel on the port side must yield to the vessel on the starboard side (which was the Ady Gil).

By: Al Rodriguez

Al Rodriguez — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 17:43:08 +0000

Great! At least now the Ady Gil will not keep burning up bio-diesel, and that corn can be used instead to feed hungry human beings instead of fueling eco terrorist vessels! For all of Pete Bethune's bravado on camera, he sang like a canary in Japanese custody, and went home yelping like a beaten dog with his tail between his legs!

I wonder why some aging Japanese WWII pilots don't get back on their Zeros, and place a couple of well aimed torpedoes….that will put a permanent end to this eco terrorist nuisance!

Glad to see the Japanese fisherman win one. The Sea Shepard's group are a bunch of jerks with too much time and money. Maybe they need to get a real job and produce for the poor if they feel compelled to poke their noses in someone else's business

That's what you get for speeding in front of a boat ten times your size. The only sympathy i feel is for endangered whales, not this reckless ridiculous captains. They need their lessons revoked. All of them (Sea Shepard's) Don't be surprised if it goes from ramming to fully automatic weapons.

P.S Capt. Paul Watson is reckless and insane and has no business on the open sea.

Because by law they cannot waste the whale so they use it for food too, conservation at work using all the parts

in WHAT WAY are the tactic employed by the sea shepherd dangerous? Butyric acid to make things stinky (oh the HORROR) and the occasional tangle rope.

The whalers are breaking an international LAW that BANS commercial whaling, and even if it weren't against the law, the whalers have a quota of 935 Minke whales per SEASON. These whales are endangered and they want to kill 935 a season?!

There's no doubt that the Japanese are trying to make a living, but they are doing something against the law. Both groups are doing something against the law, but the sea shepherds aren't getting paid for it, they are putting themselves in harms way to protect precious animals in a strictly non-violent way and are met with violence at every turn from the whaling fleet.

Paul even offered to assist the Japanese in the search for one of their crew who had fallen overboard, and the Japanese refused! The Sea Shepherds even turned around to return to port while the whalers searched for their crew member, but then one of the Yushin Maru started following them.. INSTEAD OF CONTINUING TO LOOK FOR THEIR FALLEN CREW MEMBER, this harpoon boat was following the Steve Irwin!

Anyone supporting the japanese whalers and their continued assault against whales need to be stopped. This is an extreme act of eco-terrorism and has been banned by an international treaty.. they aren't using the whales for science.. if they were.. THEY'D ONLY NEED ONE FUCKING WHALE, NOT 935! WAKE UP!

By: christianecon

christianecon — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 23:06:51 +0000

Wow, how disturbing to come on here and actually see people criticizing or trying to argue against the Sea Shepherd's efforts, even angrily. The consrvationists will likely win this war eventually, for the same reasons democracy evolved, slavery in the U.S. was ended, women got the vote, civil rights evolved, etc. It's amazing so many of you lack human empathy for these intelligent, highly social animals. I'm sorry you were likely abused as children (something very abusive happened to you), but you shouldn't take it out on whales.

in actuality, the only “sad” thing here is that you’ve swallowed watsons lies and are now parroting them to the world. You haven’t bothered to actually go read what the IWC does, and does not allow have you?
Did you know that the IWC is the ONLY organization recognized by the UN for all matters on whaling? You haven’t bothered to see just what the IWC is about? nope, you’ve simply accepted watsons word as law. How about you going in and reading up on the “laws” watson progesses to enforce. Then come back here and tell me and everyone else
1. The LAW, as written showing offenses
2. The penalties for each type of infraction
3. The court having jurisdiction over the area(s) involved
4. Once you’ve done so, show me the letter of empowerment that the AHJ gave to watson making him the sheriff, judge, jury, and executioner over ANYTHING, let alone a sovereign nations vessels.

I’ll wait,..
I’ll be laughing..but I’ll wait.

too bad for you, that the “rest of the world” actually KNOW what the rules, regs, and treaty’s are. Starting with COLREGS, UNCLOS, ATS, IWC. Others ARE doing something, just like your hero watson;
Hamas is launching rockets into civilian housing and also sending “stupid bombs” into blow up busses, stores, markets.
Al Qaueda is blowing up civilian targets, provided 9/11 for us, and still continues..

Shall I continue?
your pathetic rantings show that you are the type idiot that watson wants to have. gullible, zealous, and unable to put a coherent thought together to save your own life. Yep, you fit right in with his crew.

By: Erik

Erik — Thu, 06 May 2010 04:47:47 +0000

Obviously, by your choice of words and wording, you’ve visited the cistern of watsons kolaid. Guess what sweetie, the IWC is in place to MANAGE the differing whales stocks for a possible RETURN to commercial whaling, did you bother to read the IWC charter or its rues and regulations? I thought not. Why don’t you go read them, then come back and tell everyone about HOW it is to be determined that the whales are ready, or not (pssssttt.. here’s a hint… research whaling.. no research, no whales…) As for your supporting your own pet terrorists, that’s par for the course, as long as they do what YOU like, they’re ok to violate anyone else’s rights and laws. As for sanctuary.. I suggest YOU go read about who this “sanctuary” (set up by the IWC no less…) applies to. Uh oh… it doesnt apply to 1. those that filed objections, or 2. Research whaling. Too bad pookie. Or did you mean the AUSTRALIAN sanctuary, the one they claim in INTERNATIONAL waters ? You’re near to being classified as just another brain dead lemming. Go look up the TRUTH and not just watsons koolaid for lemmings.

I think its disgusting that these Japanese whalers are getting away with whaling. It takes allot of courage to go out to sea to fight these pathetic whalers. Its illegal what they are doing and someone needs to hold them accountable.

I applaud Sea Shepard for their efforts. Too bad these idiots writing these negative comments are not witnessing the horrible events that are taking place first hand to give them the sense of how wrong this is. It didnt look like the ship stopped in front of the ship, it was clearly steered into.

We need more Shepards in the world!

The Sea Shepherd are a bunch of parasites.
I am mostly vegan in my diet, so i wont approve of whaling. But then again i dont approve of livestock industry for meat and dairy either.
Why dont these Shepherd ram trucks into livestock houses in their own nations?

All of you loosers that think that this man or his crew are terrorists or pirates need a colonoscopy with a baseball bat with nails. These guys have more balls that you will ever dream of, and are the only humans out of almost 7 billion on earth that are actually doing something to protect these species of animals and trying to make a difference. Nobody else has stepped up to the plate,forget Greenpeace, that do absolutely nothing to intervene, yet I still get mailers at my house asking for donations so their top execs, can get richer it all a sham so they can say,……”yeah I’m an enviromentalist. I’m with Greenpeace”… .We need radicals like these guys, people that will put their life on the line to protect these whales that has as much right to be here as we do. Diplomacy doesn’t work, few people really care enough to do something, and everybody forgets that we already managed to efup our planet with green gases and we drove so many other species to extintion. And what do you say to these selfish bunch of hugry bastards like these Japanese people, that think is trendy to eat whale meat. The Japanese government is on denial so is the rest of the world, why aren’t the rest of the nations sending warships to enforce the treaty and sink these Japanese whalers? Why doesn’t anybody ELSE do something but seriously, already huh? tell me all of you loosers, what will there be left for our children, and their children of what the world use to be?

You people on the Sea shephard are as ignorant as can be ! These men are fishermen and are in a sustainable fisherie. You leave the dock with a boat load of people who cant tie a knot. Your lucky you are still alive and if you keep leaving the the dock with kids fresh out of college who went on your website and got all exited it will be you who makes the news ! You will never stop fishing in International waters because it isn’t your jurisdiction. You go home and they fish for 20 more days ,so the trip takes a little longer. Do yourself a favor and spend your spare time in a casino or mexico ! Idiots !!!

IF THE JAPANESE WHERE SIMPLY DOING RESEARCH, THEN WHY THE HUGE FOOD PROCESSING SHIP THE JAPANESE USE?? Hidden cameras in Japan has showN street vendors and shops selling the whale and dophin meat. This IS NOT research.

The issues are the watered down INEFFECTIVE international laws that have huge loop holes. These incredible weak laws DO not protect our precious endangered, innocent whales and dolphins. These so called international laws are left open to interpertation which the Japanese take FULL advantage to keep on WHALING fill there processing ship in the name of research. The Sea Shepherd had filmed the long agonizing deaths the whales and dolphins suffer which is just more insult!

Just like pre-born children who cannot speak for themseleves who will speak for the innocent whales and dolphins?

The Japanese are the ones who need to be ASHAMED!

Even Greenpeace as THOUSANDS of innocent whales and dolphins bloody the seas, they just give lip service and have not accomplished to my knowledge, saved ONE whale or dolphin. How long are the nations going to twiddle thier thumbs while the slaughter continues???

I applaud the Sea Shepherds and their boat ‘Steve Irwin’ whose wife and staff gave full blessing to knowing that Steve, one of the greatest compassionate conservationtionst would have approved.

So for all of you who also want to either sit on your hands or suck your thumbs and whine and don’t care one whit about the innocent killings please try to understand the international law and ‘quota’ for research is meaningless words. At least the Sea Shephed does not fire tear gas, flash bangs, shoot guns nor use any other life threatening devices as the Japanese do. It is NOT self defense for them since there lives are not being put in danger as they have with the Sea Shepherd and the Adi Gale, I watched that video repeatedly. Yes they cut across the bow but then were away from the bow and STATIONARY when the Japanese turned towards them and hit them. The Japaense are IN A WHALE SANCTUARY! Please look up in the dictionary if you do not know what a SANCTUARY means!!!

Save the innocent!

lucy no one became kreel in those same screws.
if whale meat is as bad as you claim, why not put pressure on the Jgovernment to stop poisoning their children. last i thought about it i consider CHILDREN more important than whales. but i guess that is just where YOUR values are.

as any rational person can observe, extremists do not apply critical thinking to their evaluations of a given situation. The Whale Wars Capt. is known as a notorious liar in feeble attempts to further his cause. Don’t any of you remember the faked shooting ?? Or the high seas trespassers who illegaly boarded a ship and then were reported as “kidnapped” Why don’t you who support this so called cause hold your advocates to at least some standard of truth ?

The Japanese kill 1,000 whales a year and 24,000 dolphins brutally. Dolphin and whale meat are poisonous with high levels of mercury. Japanese government serves whale and dolphin meat to public schools because the demand for it falls each year. The Japanese whalers kill protected whales in a whale sanctuary. It takes 45 minutes for the whalers to kill a single whale.

I only wish it would have been the Sea Shepards main boat that was sunk with the crew on board. They are pirates and terrorists. They need to be arrested and sent to GITMO. The Japanese are just fishing making a living, and the tactics used by the Sea Shepard are cowardly and dangerous. If the Japanese would hire me I would go out on their ships with them and take a gun. If the pirates attacked or got in out way of fishing I would open fire on them. The Sea Sheppards crew are losers and criminals that need to be stopped. Anyone giving them money and supporting their cause is supporting Terrorism and Piracy. These people should be prosecuted as well.
