.. tell me that I should not insult those of Greenpeace.
.. I just finished reading a wonderful editorial Captain Paul Watson, when I decided to leave for a trip to the supermarket near his home to buy a few things for dinner. Here I find myself face to face with the now ubiquitous raccoglifirme Greenpeace, complete with a bar, a giant skeleton of a whale boat. There they were, with their pens, intent on picking up unsuspecting new members (most of all, lots of good money ) on behalf of new and innovative campaign against illegal Japanese whaling in the Arctic Sea. Oh, Look at that timing! - I thought. The whaling season ended just ten days ago, with the return of the ship Nisshin Maru and Yushin Maru in Japan. And now Greenpeace is launching a new campaign against whaling, after more than 500 whales have been brutally killed in the Arctic seas.
Great!
addition, this year in the area known as "Whale Sanctuary" (ie, protected place where, according to the IWC, whales should be allowed to live quietly and do not come from the Japanese Hookshot) vessels equipped with super Greenpeace, with its rafts and colored posters (worthy of the best nursery), were not present. The only ship spot actively to defend the whales was the Farley Mowat of Sea Shepherd, which has tracked for more than two months, and chased the whalers nipponiche hindered. Successfully.
I should also mention that last year Greenpeace organized a massive fund-raising throughout the world, through which some of you will earn a large nutshell, promising a concrete intervention in Antarctic waters. In mid-November, however, then campaign ended, a statement from Greenpeace announced that no ship would have gone in the icy seas of the south, leaving those "eco-terrorism , dangerous extremists Sea Shepherd" (sic) alone and at the mercy of killers determined to make a profit on the skin of whales.
Great!
But let us. With this background, one can clearly imagine how much I want to speak with anyone who had to do with this "Large" group. Unfortunately, Murphy's law partner, of all the passers-by the man with the pen has just stopped me. Man, on the other, dressed in Prada shoe leather and fur neck (probably dog). Despite my clear eyes, the man begins:
" Hello! Greenpeace already know? It is the largest association for the protection of eco ... "
No, I tell myself. The stationary. I do not want to quarrel.
" No look, I am ... or in favor of Sea Shepherd is not really the case .. "
I stop
" Sea that ...? "
Perhaps I have spoken evil, I gather, since I do not like to pronounce foreign words correctly to avoid appearing arrogant.
" Sea Shepherd! "
She looks at me with confused look and says,
" Ah boh do not know, but Greenpeace .. "
sbonk! Void ... in my mind the thought is hard to engage. This guy talks to me about Greenpeace, but has no idea what Sea Shepherd? Is it possible? Occurred:
" But how ... work for Greenpeace and you've never heard of Sea Shepherd? "
him, offended
" Well interchange is an agency that put me here ... not my fault "
Ok then ... apart from the fact that legally "did not know - it's not my fault" is not completely covered, you're talking about the "greening of the planet's largest association" (of the Series: Greenpeace is never self-congratulatory), but in fact you do not have the faintest idea what to do or who they are? I Are you kidding? "I could not stop myself:
" Well then informed that it is better. Goodbye "
I left under his eyes very, very offended. What I
perplime that Greenpeace is really sends out people who do not have the slightest idea what he's doing just to raise money and unsuspecting supporters. The man with the pen reads a script memorized, intortando anyone who is not versed in the mud of what this organization does and did. Such as fish for astromerluzzo (endangered species) while in the Antarctic Whale Sanctuary. Such as to divert attention to whaling this year by presenting a report on the internal contradictions unlikely to trade in whale meat.
What can I say? Great. From Greenpeace
I do not expect anything different, however. But what absolutely can not stand is that a little man with the pen to be any talk of a "major environmental group" dressed corpses, with the clear and unique purpose to earn some money even using the excuse of good Because .... gaining, then, on the skin of my brothers. I am willing to have constructive dialogue with people who do not or at least have knowledge of the facts, who can what they do, they have weird ideas concerning Captain Watson who at least know what I'm talking about. If one is convinced that both Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd good and evil incarnate, at least I can discuss, even argue, and I have a minimal chance to change his mind. If you do not change, however, will not have my respect, but at least I tried. But one whose only concern is the vile money will never, ever have my respect.
