For those following the story of the Japanese whalers who rammed the boat of an anti-whaling group, here's video of the confrontation.



CNN has additional video from another angle.

As you can see, the whalers were using water cannons on the anti-whalers. As you can hear, the anti-whalers were blasting the whalers with high-powered noisemakers. They also often throw stink bombs at ships or tangle their propellers with ropes.

Make your own assessment of who's right and wrong here and whether the whalers rammed the anti-whalers or the anti-whalers got in the way of the whalers. All I can say is the anti-whalers' argument that the interaction was unprovoked is asinine.
