OMG! The Dutch supporting an Eco-terrorist group! It's the same as Syria and Iran supporting Hamas! (NOT). Anyone know how hard it is to get rancid butter smell out of blue jeans? It takes an overnight soak in oxyclean, let me tell you!
And that venerable research institute the Citizens Cetacacean of Japan, they probably don't like this at all!
You can write the Dutch consul here in San Francisco and let them know how terrible this group is. Or maybe go to their webpage and draw a distinction between vigalantes against poachers and anything that resembles terrorism.

Looks like they’ll be able to afford another goofy BatBoat after all.

Yes, that goofy boat that set a goofy record as the fastest circumnavigation of the world. Thank god for some reason when she tried to ram the big steel hulled ship her kevlar fiberglass was actually not able to puncture steel! s/

And they can sink the next BatBoat that gets in their way! BTW, isn’t it permissible to use firearms against those committing piracy like these eco-terrorists?

What was again that they robbed the poachers of?

No, see going to court is not considered robbery.

I hope they spend all their money on new boats. I also hope those boats get sunk.

Yes and I hope those elephant poachers stop running and stand their ground! And that lady that butted in with the Gorillas and got killed, Summerhall or something.
Can’t people just stay at home and let the Yakuza have free reign!

Looks like the Sea Shepherds will be keeping their Dutch registry for a while - one nation that disagrees with them being branded “pirates” or “terrorists.”
We need more of this, and less of folks reading statements and holding conferences - ahem, “conservatives.”

This will enable all the authorities and organizations involved to monitor illegally operating fishing vessels and to act instantly to enforce exiting regulations. The organizations will be attempting to enforce regulations?

Why don’t the Japanese fish, whale and “research” in their own waters? Have they mismanaged their own commercial fisheries - or what’s the problem at home?

What a waste of band width, and at bay can’t even get the title right.

Why dont the Japanese fish, whale and research in their own waters? Why aren't they free to do those things in international waters as long as they aren't breaking any laws and they aren't? If you propose that they are breaking international laws, then you must believe in the validity of international laws.

Despite clear rules and legislation, commercial fisheries are still exploiting the legally protected Galapagos Marine Reserve,I guess they thought this had something to do with it.
