Whalers use Public Relations to twist the truth

Takver | 18.01.2006 21:37 | Animal Liberation | Ecology | Ocean Defence | World

Japanese whalers have hired a New Zealand Public Relations firm to smear anti-whaling protestors. Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd are both campaigning seperately against the Japanese whaling fleet in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary. Images used in a media release by the Institute of Cetacean Research (ICR) "is deliberate, manipulative, misinformation designed to feed the idea that the two groups work together" said Jon Sumby. [Full Story]

Off the Mawson coast in the Australian Antarctic Territory, 2000 nautical miles south-west of Perth, Canadian Greenpeace anti-whaling activist, Texas Joe Constantine, was dragged overboard into the freezing Antarctic waters after the whaling harpoon was fired over his inflatable and the harpoon rope became entangled in the craft.

Paul Watson for the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has said the Japanese whaling fleet is a criminal operation and Intends to Ram and Disable Pirate Whalers but has offered to withdraw from the current campaign against the Japanese whaling fleet if either the Australian or New Zealand Government agrees to take Japan to court over the whaling issue. In New Zealand Maritime workers have blackbaned the whaling fleet.

God forbid!

18.01.2006 22:17

God forbid, greenpeace and sea shepard work together? What an awful slur!!

I bet greenpeace layers and PR consultants were furious at such libelous ideas.

Of course it's ridiculous and few who know anything about greenpeace's history would believe such an idea for a second.

However, why does it need an indymedia feature to do greenpeace PR work for them? Thought indymedia was about non-hierachical groups - you know, grassroot blaa blaa blaa

While it would be great if we could unit against our enemies, if greenpeace has to be so quick to refute claims that it might actually work cooperatively with another group (and this isn't the first time by any means), perhaps we shouldn't go out of our way to promote them.

we'll never win


Really badly written article - especial for a feature

19.01.2006 00:54

The first paragraph makes no mention of the accusation of ramming which is the significant bit of the story, or at least the story the feature seems to be trying to make. The first paragraph quotes some random unknown person as his name should mean something to us. It's a strange story, suggesting that it would look bad for sea shepherd to be associated with attempts to ram a whaling ship when thats exactly what they say they are going to do if they get a chance! Could somebody rewrite the feature so that it makes more sense?

Walmart Selling Whale Meat In Japanese Outlets

22.01.2006 19:51

Walmart has been selling Japanese whale meat in its Japanese outlets.

When Japanese businesses feel the heat of boycott, whaling by Japan will stop.
Iceland, the US, and Norway are also involved in whaling, the US killing whales
through the Inuit, through pollution and through naval sonar.
