The Faroe Islands (Faeroe Islands) located in the North Atlantic, roughly between Norway and Iceland. These islands have been an autonomous province of Denmark.

The people of these picturesque islands traditionally gather their food from the sea as many island inhabitants around the world do. Part of their sea sustenance comes from whales.

In 1986 the children of Sea Shepherd took their rust bucket rainbow painted garbage scow to the Faroe Islands to interfere with their whaling activities. Sea Shepherd cowards were ordered to leave as they were trespassing. Two of the sea going children of the rust bucket did not comply and were arrested.

Sea Shepherd has not returned to the Faroe Islands since. Sea Shepherd was met with hostility and some of the crew met with fisticuffs, Marquis of Queensbury rules not withstanding. The girly men took their garbage scow, left the islands and have not returned these twenty some odd years.

Sea Shepherd since has decided to exploit the Japanese whaling fleet taking advantage of Japans desire not to be seen as being confrontational. The benefit of the Japanese behavior has been constant and aggressive harassment by the children of Sea Shepherd. Year after year these girly men escalate their dangerous activities with total disregard for international seafaring protocols.

Perhaps if the Japanese whaler were as assertive and aggressive as the people of the Faroe Islands, the eco terrorist of Sea Shepherd would cease their life-threatening behavior and find another nation to exploit to bring in their donations.

  • @Thegus0 HAHAHAHA. RESEARCH? You serious? You honestly believe the Japanese are conducting research? Children in Japan are being killed by mercury in the tainted whale meat that is put into school lunches! Japanese rarely show the findings of their research, and when they do most respectable scientists claim it's not enough to show true research is being carried out. They might weigh 1-2 of the 1000 whales they slaughter per year, but it baffles me that anyone believes the 'research' bull.

  • @OsamaHeadshot you are a hupocrite for telling Japan should be ashamed for slaughtering animals when you know very well every country in the world kills animals even yours. Get it through your thick skull, a s the IWC rules allow, Whaling for research in the sanctuary is NOT illegal. Not to mention, the IWC has no legal power to force Japan anything. Japan join the IWC and agrees to the IWC guidelines VOLUNTARILY. Japan can just leave the IWC and ignore them if they want so it is not law.

  • @Thegus0 1. The IWC banned commercial whaling in the Sanctuary. That makes it illegal FOOL. 2. Killing any animal is slaughter. I'm not a hypocrite. I'm a vegan. Feeling dumb now FOOL?

  • @Thegus0 3. Paul Watson is not wanted by the FBI. He is watched by Interpol at Japan's request From Wki; "In April 2010, the Japanese Coast Guard obtained an arrest warrant for Watson "...on suspicion of ordering sabotage activities against Japan's whaling fleet", and Interpol has listed him as wanted at the request of Japan. The blue notice asks national police forces to provide information on Watson's whereabouts and activities, but does not seek an arrest."

  • @OsamaHeadshot "The illegal slaughter of endangered species in a sanctuary"

    1. it is not illegal, 2. killing animals for food and or research is slaughter? you should be ashamed of yourself for being a hypocrite. 3. Sea Shepherd captain is wanted by the FBI for being an eco-terrorist. your open support of terrorism is shameful. no wonder your ID is Osama.

  • @Thegus0 of course not FOOL. The illegal slaughter of endangered species in a sanctuary specifically created to give them safe haven is an obscene practice that should give you deep national shame - whether the meat is sold or gifted. Hiding commerce behind research is pathetic. Being unable to viably sustain that commerce is laughable.
