flag Former Greens leader Bob Brown appealed to Queen Mary of Denmark to intervene on behalf of Paul Watson, an anti-whaling activist arrested in Greenland. flag Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd conservation group, faces potential 15-year imprisonment in Japan for his anti-whaling activities. flag Brown argues Queen Mary's intervention could prevent Denmark from appearing as a "lickspittle of Tokyo" if it extradites Watson to Japan, and that under international law, Japanese whalers are the criminals, not Watson. flag The Captain Paul Watson Foundation, which supports Watson, gathered 25,000 signatures in its petition for his release within hours of its launch.
