Greenpeace/Davison Comments
world_steve says:Im afraid this action was a failure, everyone
arrested, ship siezed and no one got anywhere
near a submarine,
ecotist says:Depends how you define success doesn't it.
Did you see any of the excellent news
coverage? Do you not think THOUSANDS of
people are now more against Trident than they
were before - thanks to this action helping
to raise a lot more awareness about it? 
jim0203 says:Isn't the whole point of civil disobedience
that people actually do get arrested? Surely
the guys on Arctic Sunrise didn't think
they'd be able to get past the MoD Police and
their machine guns non-violently, get inside
a submarine and sail off into the sunset? Or
that they'd be let off with an ASBO??
