    Dear, oh dear! That "T" word is used rather a lot on this blog, don't you think? If the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society was a terrorist organisation, how can they maintain offices in the USA, Canada, Australia, Brazil, France, Ecuador, the Netherlands, and South Africa? I think it's rather callous,…

    Oh, indeed? Of course, the Japanese whalers are considered the pirates in the Southern Ocean at the moment. Just ask any Australian or New Zealander. Sorry, guys, but you can't have it both ways!

    I support Sea Shepherd, because when they are around, the whaling stops. Hand-wringing and wailing by bloggers, politicians and journalists does little to stop the killing. And Sea Shepherds tactics ARE successful, otherwise you would not see the increased level of vitriol directed at them, in places such as this,…

    Yes, I Sea Shepherd, because when they are around, the whaling stops. Hand-wringing and wailing by bloggers, politicians and journalists does little to stop the killing. But I would like to see a poll question about the morality of hunting endangered species, or of the quality of the so-called research,…

    Provide services, websites, timetables, maps, and the like, in languages other than Japanese. English, would be a good start, being the official language of more than 40 countries, and probably the major business language of the Asia Pacific. The English deficit in Japan, is breath-taking. And the arrogance of some…

    Tjrandom - An arrest warrant for international poaching, naming the Japanese whaling fleet, was issued on 5th August. The authority for the warrant, is the UN World Charter for Nature.

    OssanULTRA - What a pity you have to resort to personal attacks to support your view. That's a standard tactic used by the government stooges on this thread, when they have nothing of substance to say. I was enjoying your postings up until now.

    No, people with whom you have…

    It's great to read a good news story. Be proud of your Ainu heritage.

    I am satisfied with the nature of the non-violent tactics of Sea Shepherd. I wouldn't support them if I thought otherwise. Your definition of violence may differ somewhat to that of SS, and it is a definition subject to much debate in circles much bigger than whaling. Not much…

    And as the pre-positioning of the whaling lobby for the forthcoming slaughter down in Taiji draws to a close, I am eerily reminded of my years working in China. There are many aspects of this discussion that could have come straight from the Peoples Daily. It goes like this: first…
