The whaling and dolphin killings by Japan are in fact a modern day holocaust - the only difference is cetaceans are highly intelligent but a different species from humans. I do not trivialise Hitler's holocaust - but accentuate the parallels. Looking back at the Holocaust after two generations we are horrified. I actually had friends with numbers tattooed on their bodies - it was horrible.
I was also horrified when an American judge - who should know better because his own parents were holocaust survivors - ruled against Sea Shepherd and Paul Watson in an American court. I will not dignify this monster by mentioning his name - and I am not surprised he is a Bush appointee and idolised Ronald Reagan with photo on his website. (I remind you that Iran-Contra was the greatest constitutional crime in America's history, and the Anti-Sea Sherpard jerk sees Reagan as his hero!)
Hearing this news made me feel ashamed to be an American. This "Judge" was actually at UCLA at the same time I was, and we were both in the School of Political Science. (I was International Relations and never intended to be a lawyer, a profession shamed by the anti- Paul Watson ruling. He makes me feel dirty that we actually breathed the same air. His ruling also proves there is corruption and influence even at the American Appelate Court level.
I urge you to use common sense and deactivate the politically motivated Interpol Red Notices against Paul Watson. It wasn't only Hitler who was a monster in World War II. The holocaust comparisons continue with Japanese atrocities so horrible the Japanese won't put them in their textbooks - Pearl Harbour, the Rape of Nanjing, Medical War Crimes, banzai and kamikazi attacks, comfort women, the Bataan Death March and the Rape of Singapore Chinese - just to mention a few.
Please do not allow the monsters of our Planet take down an Environmental Hero. Shark finning is also killing the seas.
We owe it to our children to glorify, not incarcerate, our environmental heros, including Paul Watson.
What will your children say when you leave them with Dead Oceans because some arrogant Appelte Judge cannot correlate his families past with other highly intelligent species?
See you on the water, Ling Yai (Thai for 'Big Monkey') AKA John Caveman Gray
