What is your thought about these bastards? ‘DISHONEST’ AND ‘MORALLY BANKRUPT’:...
...‘WHALE WARS’ CAPTAIN ALLEGES? ‘LIES AND COVER-UPS
Call them pirates, environmentalists, or eco-terrorists. But whatever you call the members of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (SSCS) — better known as the crew from Animal Planet’s “Whale Wars” – you should know that one of their own is calling them “dishonest” and “morally bankrupt,” and alleging conspiracies and cover-ups.

Former Sea Shepherd captain Pete Bethune, from New Zealand, has lashed out at the scrappy, yet highly organized and sometimes dangerous, group of international college activists, weekend warriors, and extended-vacation professionals who pester Japanese whalers in the Southern Ocean in an attempt to save the whales. He‘s especially upset with the group’s leader, Capt. Paul Watson, accusing the American of hoodwinking the public on multiple occasions.
In a lengthy explanation on his Facebook page, and then through a story on the site ecorazzi.com that he links to, Bethune offers an “online letter of resignation.”
