Compromise Would Legalize Commercial WhalingPosted on Jun 21, 2010
The international community has totally failed to convince Japan, Iceland and Norway to stop hunting whales, including those facing extinction. A new proposal would allow the rogue nations to drop the pretense of scientific research in exchange for a reduction in kills, but environmentalists are skeptical.

One thing I am looking forward to, are these nations in their
quest to eradicate, in the name of food, the animals in the
oceans, mammals, fish, shell fish, the whole lot of it and then try
to explain in bp style excuses as to their reasoning of doing such
a disastrous thing. I mean, we aren’t trying to feed just a few
members of a community, no at all, when the massive fishing
trawlers being used net and catch and everything they can.
No doubt they will all have some beauts or something like tony
Report thishaywire’s ‘don’t know’, I wasn’t in the decision’, other people
were handling it’ kind of crap.
