Yeah, I think your right!


Did you read about them running that crappy old tub onto the reef they were trying to protect  somewhere around Australia or New Zealand?

"secret" service. Navy would have done a much cleaner job.

Many of the tuna boats come from my hometown (Sete). they got mad because they do have proper licences, do not fish when tuna spawn and even open the nets when dolphins are stuck in it : they respect quotas and are all legit.

On the other hand, korean and other foreign fishing boats are illegally fishing all the time next to them : they should be have been Greenpeace's target, hence the revolt !

I know a lot of the tuna boats captains on a first name basis, they are a bunch of nice guys but hotheads, I'm surprised they did not "accidentally" ram the crap out of the seaweed huggers...
