i dunno much about that thing of "whale wars", but i can be sure of one thing hunting whales in Japan is smth that s on their culture, what they do can be wrong, but its a part of their culture. Basicly, telling and trying to stop them from hunting smth that belongs to their chain food, is like telling some1 from europe to stop eating sheeps or cows. If whales is one of the animals they can hunt for their own survival, then i believe they have all the right to do it.... but then again, in not so "in" about that matter. If you told me now that they were killing whales for the purpose of "sending the meat to other countries" or "totally exagerated hunting", then i would be aggainst the whale killing.
and then i find it amusing that ppl that "cares so much about ppl killing animals that live in the wild", and totally forget about animals, pretty much known to us all, like chickens, cows, sheeps, pigs, and other farm animals, where nowadays they are "mass-produced", living on small-containing jails, where the max movements they do is: lowering the head, eat the grains/drink the water, and then elevate their heads... while the animals they try to protect live in the wild most of the time, those spend most of the time simply "fattening". in one side, animals that are valued by the hunters, in the other side, animals that are treated just like.... a beef!
well, sry for this out-of-thread moment, but i think it kinda inserts in the topic ^^' btw, wht i said is not supposed to be directed at some1.... dont flame me by that lol
