Lives have been threatened. A vessel has been destroyed. This day will go down in infamy. We will not give up. We will not retreat. We will not surrender to those who want to do harm. We need your support today [http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102925182279&s=31083&e=001r8DZj8QelM-RJ8Ufr8RyDOjLRs2s7TTUeLw9MeJoonk_lEATXb9tL-b84X0fPpksJQ99KUovsoKqdBVgwfijLE4jMckCEw6gg-D9h_WviOWCX1H86UzXHzbMFtZJZVK6mwd6y40uD7sF28ps3MLmSIl6uSNte9zvzWqismEgIE0=] now more than ever. Earlier today, our vessel the Ady Gil was severely damaged and almost sunk in a vicious and unprovoked attacked by a Japanese whaling harpoon vessel many times its size. The crew barely escaped with their lives and were rescued by our newest vessel the Bob Barker. There is a battle between "David and Goliath." The illegal Japanese whalers are trying to physically harm and financially destroy your nonprofit whale defenders -- the Sea Shepherds. Show the whalers and the government of Japan that they cannot get away with this. As I write, my valiant crews remain at sea, vigilant in their pursuit to stop the whalers. Our defense of the whales needs to continue in the Southern Oceans. We are their only hope. Sea Shepherd is the only organization in the world directly intervening to save these magnificent and innocent beings but we cannot do it without you.
