22 pilot whales slaughtered by Faroese poachers – ‘We could show ISIS a thing or two about decapitation, you whale-loving bastards’
By Captain Paul Watson
29 June 2015 (Facebook) – This morning, 22 wonderful creatures were swimming in the cold Northern waters enjoying life in the company of their small family group. It was a beautiful Monday morning, the seas were calm and the skies were blue. What most civilized people in the world would view as a beautiful thing, watching a pod of these unique creatures swimming gracefully through the sea, a small group of thugs on the shore nearby gazed over the water with murderous intentions in their heart. The call was issued to kill. The police closed the tunnels. A Danish frigate blocked the path of the Sea Shepherd vessel Brigitte Bardot, and the thugs were unleashed with huge hooks and sharp knives. The 22 pilot whales were driven to shore and massacred as the police blocked the path of any interference. The bodies were hoisted onto the dock by a crane as each animal was disemboweled, unborn fetuses ripped from their mother’s wombs. The bodies were decapitated one by one. One supporter of the slaughter sent me a message, saying, “We could show ISIS a thing or two about decapitation, you whale-loving bastards.” As the mutilations continued, Sea Shepherd volunteers were surrounded by Faroese police officers charged with the duty of preventing any interference with the slaughter. These were two pictures taken within the last half hour.
