Piracy - Eco fascists show their true colours.

First off they illegally board a ship in international waters
Deliberately trying to damage ships, throwing acid at the crew

Flying a pirate flag, if it looks like a pirate and acts like a pirate, then a pirate it be.

Glenn Inwood, a spokesman for Japan's Institute for Cetacean Research, which organizes the hunt, accused Sea Shepherd of stalling to get publicity.

"It is completely illegal to board anyone's vessel ... on the high seas," he said. "So this can be seen as nothing more than an act of piracy by the Sea Shepherd group."

**Update - The crew of a Japanese harpoon ship holding a British anti-whaling protester captive insist they are treating him well - and have even offered him a meal of whale meat. Political correctness is not a strong trait in the Japanese, but it amused me I have to say: link
