Paul Watson, Anti-Whaling Activist, Is Released After 5 Months in Prison
Briefly

"My arrest has focused international attention on Japan's continuing illegal whaling operations and their intent to go back to the Southern Ocean," Mr. Watson, 74, told Agence France-Presse after his release. "So, in fact, these five months have been an extension of the campaign."
Mr. Watson says in a windy, outdoor setting: "After five months, it's good to be out, and good to see that they're not going to send me to Japan. So now I go home for Christmas."
