Jan 12, 2006 - "The confrontation between the whalers and environmentalists is headed towards a possible human tragedy (above and beyond the tragedy of the whales). With physical confrontations escalating, the potential for loss of life at sea has dramatically increased. For no other reason than its ability to conduct search and rescue operations if needed, the RNZN would be wise to station an vessel capable of serving as a platform for such operations in the vicinity of the whaling fleet." - Paul G. Buchanan, Lecturer, Comparative Politics and Security Affairs, the University of Auckland, NZ.
