womanforwomen- At least Japanese are not killing innocent civilians while some hypocrite 'save the animals' nations are doing it in the name of peace.

Japan isn't hunting those, but Australia moans all the same. Let's face it - Australians are going to moan about it no matter what. There is a commercial anti-whaling industry that will ensure this continues for the forseeable future. I hope the increasing whale populations lead to more and more…
