Whale wars Viking shores

Whale wars Viking shores.  I have been watching this program, and the previous few seasons of Whale wars.  While I enjoyed the Whale wars series, and really supported the fight against the Japanese whaling fleet the new "Viking shores" has a different effect.  Here the Sea Shepherd team really seem to be trying to provoke Faroese into a confrontation, and are trying to show them in a bad light.
As for the "covert" team bringing in the sonar thingies, maybe their idea of covert is different to mine.  Mine doesn't include wearing a sea shepherd sweat shirt with the logo plastered all over it and being met at the customs post by a camera crew... Very bloody covert!
Personally I'm now supporting the Faroese, these people who do kill pilot whales (non endangered) just for food, (an important part of their diet), seem very restrained with the sea shepherd people.
