jessssicaaa,
It doesn't need to be this way. When naturally renewable resources are exploited on a sustainable, conservative…

cleo,
We now seem agreed that Japan was providing data (despite what the New Zealand government's anti-whalers were saying, and you swallowed so eagerly with fact checking for yourself).
And as you also point out they stopped doing so a couple of years ago due to the nonconstructive use of…

This is just lip service from the Dutch I fear.
spudman, indeed the Japanese should sort out their on board safety issues. That however is certainly not an excuse or an invitation for the SSCS lunatics to go smashing their boat in to the Japanese vessels repeatedly. (Indeed, may I…

Does your contract forbid you to admit it when you're wrong? See this all the time with Greenpeace.

LOL, now that I read carefully it appears that the New Zealand authors of the document you are quoting were back tracing, because it was a subsequent document from the same authors that I showed you already. They themselves admitted they were wrong essentially.

cleo,
The report you are quoting from (now that I do read it) was a document submitted by New Zealand's representatives, and as I've already shown, they were wrong to state that. I already showed you one document outlining the figures.
The quote…

hobbsy70,
Anti-whaling rhetoric says that whales eat krill only (google it), yet Japan has again shown this dogma to be false. So we can stop there and be ignorant, or we can look to understand this better and thus make for more…

cleo,
Sorry, but you're wrong. Struck and lost data is a requirement under the IWC's "Revised Management Procedure", which was established way back in the early 1990's. Japan didn't suddenly make this data available as you are trying to make out (for who?).
And then I'm not surprised to see…

Dilbert14,
Sure the culturally intolerant can talk about "brutal mindless slaughter" etc, and "protest", that's fine. It's also my right to point out your…

Yes, if there is a problem in Japan it is with food labeling. This is a wider issue than just cetaceans (whales and dolphins) however.
