Whales are not food, and with the exception of a handful of coastal native tribes, the human species have never depended on whale meat as a food source. There must be absolute limits on what nations can "poach" especially in International waters. These species belong to the planet not to human consumption. The Japanese now have a stockpile of over 4,000 tons of rotting whale flesh. They can not sell this meat as no one in Japan really cares for it. The government subsidized whaling companies have now resorted to selling the whale meat at huge discounts to the school system and dog food companies. We as activists have so many obstacles and causes to overcome however, we should target the most obsene, cruel, and unnecessary crimes against nature. The whale hunt is being carried out by a handful of nations, that we can stop together. Please support www.seashepherd.org

Today Sea Shepherd is returning to the the Southern Ocean whale sanctuary to defend the whales. They are doing so with less resources and less press coverage than Greenpeace. However, Greenpeace have fled their mission and I Feel, they are misleading us on the reasons for doing so. As you know a mother whale and her calf were brutally slaughtered just days ago. Greenpeace took this opportunity to once again posture themselves for donations. If the Esperanza had not abandoned their so called mission, those two priceless lives would not have been lost to the world. This is quite honestly a matter of life and death, and should be taken very seriously. We as humans have waged war on every creature we co exist with on this planet. The lives that are being lost at this very moment are some of the most gentle and intelligent animals in our Oceans. I now question Greenpeace, for their backing down on this issue or the mere fact that they seem to use this cause for their own PR. Please support www.seashepherd.org

Greenpeace does not even oppose whaling. These are actual quotes from Greenpeace spokespersons: “Greenpeace is not opposed to whaling in principle.” - John Frizell, Director of Greenpeace International. From the Greenpeace Policy Paper 1994. "As a natural scientist I cannot accept that Greenpeace is opposed to whaling. One must be allowed to harvest a renewable resource. To me, this is an important principle." - Leif Ryvarden, former Chairman of Greenpeace Norway. From an interview with Dagbladet, August 2, 1991 "The 1993 Minke whale harvest did not constitute a threat to the stock." - Ingrid Bertinussen, Greenpeace Norway Director. From an interview on Norwegian radio (NRK), October 22, 1993 "The Norwegian catch is not a threat to the Minke whale stock," - Kalle Hesstvedt of Greenpeace Norway in a remarkable interview with the Norwegian newspaper, "Nordlys" on May 21. Hesstvedt does not rule out the possibility that Greenpeace might accept commercial whaling when catch quotas are allocated by the In

What the fund-raising appeals do not say is that Greenpeace has already raised tens of millions of dollars this year to “save” the whales, and tens of millions of dollars the year before, and the year before that. In fact, Greenpeace has raised a mind-boggling hundreds of millions of dollars pretending to save whales over the years and yet they have not stopped the Japanese from killing whales.http://www.seashepherd.org/editorials/editorial_080205_1.html

Greenpeace ocean campaigners, are begging for money saying they will be fighting to help the whales escape and they claim that for every dollar donated they will be able to stay out another hour, another day, or another week “saving” whales. Their success will depend on YOU sending a donation NOW. Of course the word success means something different to Greenpeace. The Greenpeace campaign is not stopping whaling ships. Success to Greenpeace is about recruiting memberships and raising money.http://www.seashepherd.org/editorials/editorial_080205_1.html

Greenpeace makes more money from anti-whaling than Norway and Iceland combined make from whaling. In both cases, the whales die and someone profits. We continue to receive reports from people who have received highly emotional appeals from Greenpeace for money to save the whales including appeals to help refuel their ship. This is simply out and out fraud.http://www.seashepherd.org/editorials/editorial_080205_1.html

Greenpeace International raised 127 Million Euros last year. Greenpeace Australia has about 18 million dollars in the bank. Greenpeace USA sits on tens of millions of dollars. Yet they claim they do not have the budget to return to the Southern Oceans yet they also claim they stopped the whalers for two weeks in January, and if such a claim is true then they should go back and stop them again. http://www.seashepherd.org/editorials/editorial_080205_1.html

Enough is enough. The Greenpeace fraud about saving the whales must be exposed. For years, I have been tolerating their pretense of action and watching them turn their ocean posing photo ops into tremendous profits from whaling. And now they say they can’t return to the Southern Oceans with their ship the Esperanza because they don’t have the budget for it and because they are going to direct their energies into lobbying for change inside Japan.
