2017.09.03 ○ワトソン 「素人ボランティアを犠牲にすることは出来ない」 Why is Sea Shepherd not there? Why have the Cove Guardians left Taiji? The truth of the matter is that the Cove Guardians did not leave Taiji. The government of Japan closed the doors on the Guardians. It is somewhat difficult to be in Taiji if our people are not allowed into the country. We have no more veteran leaders able to enter the nation and we cannot send inexperienced volunteers into a situation where they will be charged with terrorism just for being there. https://www.facebook.com/captpaulwatson/posts/10155372215575932
This year Japan escalated their resistance with the passing of new anti-terrorism laws, some of which are specifically designed to condemn Sea Shepherd tactics. For the first time ever, they have stated they may send their military to defend their illegal whaling activities.
You don’t need a peg leg or an eye patch. When you ram ships; hurl glass containers of acid; drag metal-reinforced ropes in the water to damage propellers and rudders; launch smoke bombs and flares with hooks; and point high-powered lasers at other ships, you are, without a doubt, a pirate, no matter how high-minded you believe your purpose to be.
