@theraVen27...sadly , you are misguided, ...these men are just puppets of the Japanese Government , and WHALING , is nothing but an ancient barbaric practice , maintained to enable the Japanese ( primitive as they are) to have pride in an out of date traditional practice.
When the Japanese stop bowing & scraping , they might elevate their thinking , and see that "YOU DONT HAVE TO EAT EVERY FUCKING THING THAT MOVES"

Until then, the Sea Shepherds are the only ones brave enough to be out there raising awareness.

It makes little political or economic sense for the japanese fleet to return to the coast of Antarctica, but their motivation has now shifted from hunting whales into refusing to surrender to the SSCS. “They will have to kill us to prevent us from intervening once again,” said Watson. “Are the Japanese people ready to take human lives in defense of this horrifically cruel and illegal slaughter of endangered and protected species of whales?" w w w. bymnews. com /news /newsDetails. php? id=88473

The truth of what you see in this particular video is too hard to believe, that's why the whalers will run with it as "terrorism". Those with a pre-decided bias will have no choice but to believe it too. What you see actually happening is, they partly lost control of the Steve Irwin just as they were trying to get very close to the whaler ship. There's no way anyone would believe it wasn't a deliberate crash because the Shepherds were indeed trying to "intimidate". Those are the facts
Feb. 6 2009: "A boat with anti-whaling activists collides with a japanese whaling vessel in the Antarctic Ocean. No one was injured. Japan is condemning the clash, calling it unforgivable."
Jan. 6 2010: "A japanese whaling vessel collided with the anti-whaling powerboat Ady Gil. The vessel sunk. There was one injury reported. The japanese officials have since repeatedly refused to cooperate with investigations over this collision."
@ITSGLENN83 I like whales..but it doens not take long time to google and find out that Poul Watson is a liar and is more a media whore than a real honest person
@7sagas7 what are they supposed to do, shower the japanese with flowers and sunshine? if they dont take aggressive actions, why would japan stop. paul doesnt deny this collusion...why would he...its right there on video and very obvious. ppl say they dont like his methods...but it beats the method of sitting on your ass. if i were single, id join the crew..i think what makes ppl the most mad is they claim its for research..1000 whales a year...what kind of research is that?
The japanese confessed they boarded the Ady Gil when the Shepherds had to abandon it to sink. They even claim they went through their belongings and found weapons and valuable chemicals they left behind.
That's not a japanese ship. Why did they board it? Captain Bethune went aboard the whaler ship because they refused to answer attempts at a rational discussion. He wanted to serve the captain a "citizens arrest" type warrant for the loss of the Ady Gil (which is his right)
@loppar3 They are not hunting, they are "researching". The Japanese goverment is using a small "law-window", that allows them whaling if it is for research purposes. Of course that's on the papers...
I might be wrong somewhere, so try using google for more informations...
Sea Shit heads are nothing more than TERRORISTS & PIRATES!!!
They deserve to have all their ships rammed & sunk!!! That idiotWatsonn & his seashit scumm have done muchsabotagee &damagee to other ships, sinking many!
So, they are nothing more than pirates & terrorists that deserve all the stuff that may happen to them!!! Do not let the people die at sea, but they deserve what they get!!!
Tough noogies, says I. If the yakuza (Japanese mafia) wasn't making so much money off of whale meat, the Japanese whaling fleet would be rusting at their berths. Again......."tough noogies" ;-)
Steve Irwin was a stupid idiot the way he treated animals by getting in thier faces
I was kinda hoping that the crocs would bite his face off to teach him a lesson, but a stingray got him, I bet the sting was fed up with steve getting into it's face.
@ryanhankla Steve Irwin himself was going to join the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society personally just before he died. That's how the entire Steve Irwin Foundation (including his widow) knew it would be what he wanted to donate millions of dollars to the cause. This is not my opinion. This is fact. Look it up
@djackmanson You can clearly see the clouds move from right to left, the only way this is possible is if the Japanese whaling ships, including the ship this video was taken on, turned into the Steve Irwin. Relating to the Ady Gil, they told the media it had sunk because they knew it was going to sink.
@MaxJav9669 I don't know about the Ady Gil, however, from watching this video, the clouds seem to be moving because the camera is panning to keep the Steve Irwin in the picture as it turns to ram the whaling ship.
@mdredheadguy1979 The Ady Gil was idle in the water or moving very slow and no one was at the controls of it when the Shonan Maru turned at it and took it's bow off. Look at the footage of this collision from the Yushin Maru's view and you can see at the end of the video the Yushin's curved wake from where it turned in front of the Steve Irwin.
@MaxJav9669 You look at the footage, just prior to the collision the Ag can clearly be seen gunning her engines and thus moving into the path of the whaler at the last minute. The Ag is at fault.

"Japan’s tsunami seems to have succeeded, where years of boycotts and protests & high-seas chases by Western environmentalists had failed, in knocking out a pillar of the nation’s whaling industry. Ayukawahama was one of only four communities in Japan that defiantly carried on whaling and eating whales as a part of the 'local culture', even as the rest of the nation loses interest in whale meat." japanprobe. com/2011/03/25/whaling-town-destroyed-by-tsunami/
@privatecaboose250 I will say it again, maybe you'll get it this time; the definition of Terrorism is the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, especially for political purposes.
This describes the SS actions to a T. Yes, they are terrorists. It does NOT matter weather they have killed anyone YET! If they keep this up, someone WILL die!
So we keep using non-violence? in which the Japanese will never listen and don't give a damn.
Sometimes you need to use violence in order to ahieve the goals you set if your oponnent will not listen to you in some situations. Terrorism incents terror into people, are the SS crew using that? no Are the terrorists doing what they are doing to protect people? No SS crews are doing this to protect the creatures of the sea
@privatecaboose250 You almost make it sound like the lives of whales are more important than the lives of some people. Is that how you think? I will not condone the SS crews actions. Actions like ramming another ship. Yes, that kind of action would scare anyone aboard the ship getting rammed. Yes the SS crew ARE using terror. Who are you to pass judgment on another country? Sounds to me like you have allowed your hate and prejudice to blind you. If that is true, I pity you.
What about the Japanese actions on the Ady gil? they clearly rammed that ship and sunk it
What right have the Japanese to hunt whales that is clearly violates international law which bans hunting whales? I have nothing but respect for the Japanese but I totally disagree what they are doing to the whales.
So in your eyes the Japan should keep killing whales until they go extinct is that it?
Last friday episode the japanese hit the bob barker so what do you say about that then?
@privatecaboose250 I watched the video. You can see a wake behind the ady gil, which means it was moving forward. And it could have easily been salvaged.... oh yeah, an ex-seashepherd says it was done on purpose to gather public sympathy :O
Look at the Viewpoint of the bob barker you can CLEARLY see that the Japanese ship turn into the Ady Gil, Yeah the Ady Gil could be salvaged if they can get it back to port but they could has you see by morning it was sinking it wouldn't have made it back to port. That funny it must a ghost driving the boat as all the crew was outside the boat so who was driving a ghost?
It must be a ghost driving the boat then.....and sometimes the water can be deceptive somtimes making you think it's moving.
The Video only shows from the Japanese boat and that does NOT show you the ship turning into the Ady Gil
You watch the view from the Bob Barker or from Whale Wars and come back to me, if you won't then you are one sided person that only looks at one point of view
@privatecaboose250 Uhh, the sun WILL destroy the earth eventually. Also, I can't find anything that says mink whales are endangered. I see some that say they are threatened, and others are no concerne. The japanese are still going by the law with the research, although it's a grey area. Maybe the sea shepherd should try and use legal tactics rather than be terrorists.
Yeah the sun will destory earth in a few billion years from now by that time all life will be gone.
So presently Humans are the biggest threat to life on Earth.
Research? We do research on birds and animals to study them for feeding habits and other things but are we killing them to study them......NO. If you think they are really reasearching them well more fool you, they don't need to kill them to research them, it's all for commericalation. what do you want them to do?
Yeah I could but I can't well not yet anyway, you see there is one thing is stopping me for doing something is that thing that you need get to the boat in which I don't have yet and that thing is MONEY.
If I want to bitch about it on Youtube well I have that right because it's called FREEDOM OF SPEECH
So you must like the Japanese killing whales so what the point having life on earth so come on lets end the world and kill everything that would suit u wouldn't it.
@privatecaboose250 I will no longer respond to your comments as there is so much hate and prejudice in them that it is impossible to have a logical discussion with you unless I just mindlessly agree with everything you say, and I will not lie just to make you happy.
And for the record, if you think that hunting is just for fun, you know nothing about it in the first place.
@privatecaboose250 "his shows that us Humans are the biggest threat to this planet"
If all humans are a "threat" and thus evil, that includes YOU! Don't paint a large group of people with just one brush. That just leads to discrimination.
@xdroon3 yeah we pussy thats why we call ur mother to kill bin laden and she said "ups sorry i can now i am fucking with a horse" you better shut the fuck up man u don't even know who u talking to right now..
A coastal whaling base in Miyagi Prefecture of Japan has been destroyed by the powerful tsunami triggered by 3/11/11's massive earthquake, which washed away their whale-processing facility. In Ishinomaki of Ayukawa on southern Oshika, the tsunami of 10 meters high traveled 600 meters inland. They prospered as a whaling base since opening there in 1906. Two of their vessels were scheduled to participate in Japan's research whaling in April. search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20110318a7.html
Keep in mind, last year, 2010, the Australian Government announced the initiation of proceedings against Japan in the International Court of Justice in Hague (Netherlands).
i would take the bob barker and drop 3 high powerd cats in it with bigg clutches and put all 3 in the corner(full speed ahead) and spin these boats out
Cry -baby whalers are all upset because other people who have just as much claim on the whales, do not want them killed and are willing to do something about it. . JAPAN DOES NOT OWN THESE ANIMALS AND HAS NO RIGHT HUNTING THEM OUTSIDE OF JAPANESE WATERS.
Humpback whales were put on the endangered species list when the population dipped to under 400, down from an estimated pre-whaling population of about 145,000. There are now 80,000 humpbacks worldwide and their status is being reviewed, that's why some agreements allow for their hunt and capture. Harassing people trying to do their job won't change that.
@Cdubzhappy It DOES make sense! As we all know by now, Whales are very susceptible to toxins (just like mercury). Well, when the japanese kill a Whale, the Sea Shepherds use the legally harmless "stink bombs" to taint the meat so the whalers can't profit from it. So now they've spent the costs of fuel, salaries for their men, food & supplies, whatever licenses, and bribes... and have nothing to show for it.
This plus the legal battles initiated in World Court of Justice will eventually pay off
@Cdubzhappy you might be right but the Japanese have no right to be hunting whales! this shows people are willing to do anything to stop criminals like the Japanese whalers. i hope that with the earthquake in japan the fleet would not return to the south see.
@sidetur Yes.. they are allowed to gather an allotted number of whales per year under an international research agreement. Why don't you think an official entity is intervening in these matters?
@Cdubzhappy no one intervenes because money is on the middle. governments keep their mouth shut because they gain from the profits(indirectly that is, in the form of "money favors") i have to admit though from this video the sea shepherd did cause the collision with the whaling ship, but now they are playing by the rules and now the whalers are the ones colliding with the sea shepherd; like for example the destruction of the ady gill. why do you want whales to go extinct? let them in peace
that crash probably wasn't intentional. you can see in the vid that the ship turned when it got too close to the wave created by the Japanese ship and the wave probably caused the collision
Learn to check your sources, and by the way, DO YOU CARE IF HE SHOULD'VE LIED???? I show my respect to those guys, they have my permission and of many many many others to bloody sink thos damn Japs!
I agree that the Japanese should not be harvesting whales. But the people at fault here are the international community for permitting the Japanese to harvest them under the guise of research.
That being said, if you were to ram my vessel, I would take that as an attack on my ship, and defend my vessel by all means necessary. And it will not, I repeat, will not be pretty for the vessel that attacked my vessel.
Those people on the Steve Irwin are going to pay dearly one day.
Rage all you want internet. Every day our brave whalers set out and return safely with delicious whale meat. This is part of our tradition and we will never surrender it to the international community. You will never be able to stop us from honouring our way of life which was established white-knight Europeans were still living in huts.
"While Japan claims the hunt is purely for research purposes, they return to port with hundreds of tons of whale meat PACKAGED and ready for the country's commercial markets. This vividly shows Japan's determination to maintain a commercial whaling industry under the guise of science in an internationally protected sanctuary. (Antarctica, established through the efforts of U.S. Vice-President Gore). We can not allow them to continue to flout such international agreements." stopwhalingnow. com
"Japan hunts whales under the research exemption to a 1986 worldwide ban on commercial hunts. Critics say there is no reason to kill the animals, and the research program amounts to commercial whaling in disguise because surplus meat from the hunt is sold domestically and the gains to science are either previously noted discoveries or are next to insignificant." - NYTimes. com Jan 4th 2011
If someone lies about the whole whaling issue, its is the japanese with their IRC whaling operation. They are killing whales in the name of science while THE WHOLE WORLD knows the meat ends up in the japanese supermarkets.
Mercury has a negative effect on any living thing exposed to it. The oceans are becoming contaminated by it due to Japan dumping E-waste on an industrial scale into the ocean (garbage of a computer or electronic nature), thinking that's how to make it "disappear". Liquids pollute, but metals release poisons when submerged in water too, particularly salt water. Whale flesh especially absorbs toxins. That's why the Sea Shepherds throw butyric acid. To make the meat inedible. Eat THAT

Bottom line is this: The Anti-Whaling ships are staffed by neo-hippies. The second the Japanese quit whaling, they would be out protesting a deer or prarie dog hunt. They would eat veggies at Thanksgiving dinner--adopt a turkey.
They'd probably find out a way to get mad about me shooting tin cans.
America ended the tradition of slavery, even though it made white people rich. Then later America became the global economic powerhouse of all time. Evolution: It's no longer 6000 b.c.
@popceed How can you live with yourself being so indecent? The Sea Shepherds never have and never will kill anyone. Only the Japs have no problem with killing. And what's it to you? Why would YOU want to see someone killed? (Someone who is trying to help the ecosystem?)
@popceed Paul made a great point when he said... why doesnt anyone question why the japanese are willing to put human lives at risk to kill whales? instead they ask sea shepherds how can you risk human lives to save whales? On one hand... you have people risking human lives for money, on the other hand, you have people risking human lives to rescue fellow mammals.
LOL YUP!, they "partly" lost control of the Steve Erwin..., thats why they hold contact for a friggin minute. A good ole' fashoind 5inch GUN at the waterline would fix that bullshit.
Heres to Pirates everywhere getting thier Vegan asses shot off.
Let's just think for a moment about WHY all parties are doing anything they're doing. Even IF the Sea Shepherds would push or bend laws, they're doing everything in their power to help SAVE whales. The Japanese are working for greed of money. Are there NO other food sources for them to harvest?
@popceed The truth of what you see in this particular video is too hard to believe, that's why the whalers will run with it as "terrorism". Those with a pre-decided bias will have no choice but to believe it too. What you see actually happening is, they partly lost control of the Steve Irwin just as they were trying to get very close to the whaler ship. There's no way anyone would believe it wasn't a deliberate crash because the Shepherds WERE INDEED trying to "intimidate". Those are the facts
USDAChuckSteak said "Can you tell me what other food sources Japan can harvest?" Answer: Rice, Bread, Fish, Noodles, Miso, Beans, Eggs, Flour, Fruits, Fu, Imported Beef and Meats, Mushrooms, Soy products, Vegetables, Shellfish/Crab, Roe, Seaweed, the list goes on and on.
@info145 You don't really harvest bread, noodles, miso, fu, flour, or imported beef and meats. The latter is an import, and the former are all produced.
USDAChuckSteak said "What law makes whaling illegal?" Answer: Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) Citation: 16 USC 1361 - 1421h. Also, the "INTERNATIONAL" Whaling Commission (Est. 1946), who regulated which species could be hunted and under what conditions. In 1986, commercial whaling was banned altogether by the IWC by passing a moratorium on whaling in all international waters. Along with this measure, most countries also created national laws that made whaling illegal within their waters.
Daralyn...then we need to worry about those few Japanese that are still consuming whale meat...some dont even know they are eating it as it has been falsely packaged as other meats....we all know that there is a 'pole' to suit anyones needs...I just know what I witnessed and watched for myself....Japanese need to stop killing all sea mammals and find another food source besides their rape of the deep.
This video and its description is false the ram the captain told the sydney papers about is when these japenese whalers entered australian waters and rammed and sunk the Andy Gil. the ram in this picture here is from a complety different time when the whalers had a whale in front of them and they were about to harpoon it, the Steve Irwin tried to slow the boat down to help save the whale, sadly the whale was killed. & if 1 of my boats had been sunk by these illegal murdering fu****s id ram em to
@darrenwright22 No, you are 100% wrong about the video. This video was posted in early 2009, and the Sydney Morning Herald article is also dated early 2009. The Adi Gil sinking was about a year AFTER this video was posted, in January 2010.
Sea Shepherd lied about the Adi Gil sinking as well; they told the media the boat had sunk two days before it did.

The japanese confessed they boarded the Ady Gil when the Shepherds had to abandon it to sink. They even claim they went through their belongings and found weapons and valuable chemicals they left behind.
That's not a japanese ship. Why did they board it? Captain Bethune went aboard the whaler ship because they refused to answer attempts at a rational discussion. He wanted to serve the captain a "citizens arrest" type warrant for the loss of the Ady Gil (which is his right)

OK, people will not ever stop eating animals, but there are guidelines that should be followed:
1) Don't kill animals whose subsistence is in question.
2) Kill quickly and humanely.
3) Replenish.
4) Respect an animal's sanctuary!
The poachers ignore all of these basic common sense points of human logic

@mdredheadguy1979 The Ady Gil was idle in the water or moving very slow and no one was at the controls of it when the Shonan Maru turned at it and took it's bow off.

@Cdubzhappy It DOES make sense! As we all know by now, Whales are very susceptible to toxins (just like mercury). Well, when the japanese kill a Whale, the Sea Shepherds use the legally harmless "stink bombs" to taint the meat so the whalers can't profit from it. So now they've spent the costs of fuel, salaries for their men, food & supplies, whatever licenses, and bribes... and have nothing to show for it.
This plus the legal battles initiated in World Court of Justice will eventually pay off

Fishing is legal...
Fishing a maintainable species is logical as well.
The ants dont recieve the same treatment in you'r eyes....
Why not e-mail me and explain your position, id be happy to debate it with you.
Humans have taken animals for thousands of years, but we DO NEED to use species responsibly...., as is our heritage.
The Japanese seem to be doing so..., why interupt them?

@info145 You don't really harvest bread, noodles, miso, fu, flour, or imported beef and meats. The latter is an import, and the former are all produced.

USDAChuckSteak said "What law makes whaling illegal?" Answer: Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) Citation: 16 USC 1361 - 1421h. Also, the "INTERNATIONAL" Whaling Commission (Est. 1946), who regulated which species could be hunted and under what conditions. In 1986, commercial whaling was banned altogether by the IWC by passing a moratorium on whaling in all international waters. Along with this measure, most countries also created national laws that made whaling illegal within their waters.

Daralyn...then we need to worry about those few Japanese that are still consuming whale meat...some dont even know they are eating it as it has been falsely packaged as other meats....we all know that there is a 'pole' to suit anyones needs...I just know what I witnessed and watched for myself....Japanese need to stop killing all sea mammals and find another food source besides their rape of the deep.

2: Whaling is not internationally illegal.
3: They attacked the ships!!! They're eco-terrorists!

This video and its description is false the ram the captain told the sydney papers about is when these japenese whalers entered australian waters and rammed and sunk the Andy Gil. the ram in this picture here is from a complety different time when the whalers had a whale in front of them and they were about to harpoon it, the Steve Irwin tried to slow the boat down to help save the whale, sadly the whale was killed. & if 1 of my boats had been sunk by these illegal murdering fu****s id ram em to

@darrenwright22 No, you are 100% wrong about the video. This video was posted in early 2009, and the Sydney Morning Herald article is also dated early 2009. The Adi Gil sinking was about a year AFTER this video was posted, in January 2010.
Sea Shepherd lied about the Adi Gil sinking as well; they told the media the boat had sunk two days before it did.
