We agree with him in only one respect. Industrial whale-hunting still practised by countries Slike Iceland, Norway, Japan and the Soviet Union — is a cruel and entirely usnecessary disgrace to civilization. Its complete elimination is long overdue. This does not for one second excuse Watson for organizing Sea Shepherd Society thugs to carry out an act of terrorism against another sovereign country. His plea that it was not terrorisin simply because nobody got hurt is Sudicrous. The French saboteurs of the Rainbow Warrior in a New Zealand harbor may not have intended to kill the sleeping photographer on board. But these semantics are, in any case, beside the point. The criminal act for which Watson gleefully claims responsibility was motivated by exactly the same mindset that leads international murderers to bomb crowded stores, blow up pianes, kill their passengers and hijack cruise ships. Yo further their cause they take the law into their own Sands. Like af} tunnel- vision fanatics — from the crucifiers of Christ and the high priests of the Inquisition to Hitler, Stalin and Libya’s Watson Gadhaffy believ::s the end always justifies the means. When enough ruthless people share that belief, civilization itself is in peril.
