Let's get it straight - whaling is GENOCIDE of a highly intelligent species that just isn't us. Let's all start labelling commercial whaling for what it is. Judge Kowalski, who recently labeled Paul Watson as a criminal should be ashamed - his parents were holocaust survivors, and the genocide of commercial whaling is a holocaust of another highly intelligent species. He is known to be arrogant, but his meaager legal mind is not large enough to understand there are other intelligent species on Planet Earth. Whales are at the top of the list. As a professional sea kayaker I've had several whale and dolphin conversations. None were arrogant and all were more intelligent than Kowalski.
The Japanese are no strangers to Genocide, so they just don't care. How many Japanese are even aware of their atrocities in World War II and the decade leading up to it - the Rape of Nanjing (and the invasion of China), Medical War Crimes, Kamikazi attacks, Banzai attacks, chemical warfare, and the list goes on. Whaling and dolphin kills are merely an extension of this society, which has difficulty in identifying these issues because they aren't even in Japan's textbooks. .
See you on the water,
