Well done Alyn! An interesting read and I nice set of stamps to go with it. It is interesting just how freely so many countries felt that they could just board the MV Green Peace and detain the crew, while the ship was in international waters.
Regards ... Tim.
nice history and well-illustrated, all in context. as one of the commandos might have uttered, "Je l'aime."
Excellent Alyn. Passing the link on to my grandkids as well. Thanks for the interesting 'snapshot' of important events in the life of a planet watchdog.
