Australia threatens Japan over whaling program

[IamGaijin]

Japan should listen to the people they worship, and try to emulate.

Stop eating whales, Japanese culture is obsolete even the Japanese people want to move on and evolve to be like Westerners. Drop the whale meat, you become more Western, its that simple!

[defiant18]

The Navy should be sent out to secure our borders from illegal activity's. After all that's what the navy is for, why have a navy when we don't secure our borders with it. Fucking refugees come here by the boat load japs fishing our waters FFs Gallah grow a back bone.

[jimzmeys]

they shouldn't hunt in our waters get the fuck out japan stay in your own waters you ignorant twats

[juki0h]

@jimzmeys lol, now you know how it feels to be iraqi or afghanistan, us in their land.

[wygram]

'research whaling program' - what could they even claim they are researching? knowing the japanese and how efficiently they live and how technologically advanced they are with everything else (like a train being late if it's 10 seconds past the time it was supposed to arrive) how could they possibly need 900 whales every year for years?

[BuclkeNutz]

They hunt under the name of collecting data and research. Wonder why they need to kill 200 hundred whales for cell samples 

[TheCupcakes313]

japan is stupid thay need to stop whaleing and go eat other things like chickens and crap.what if all the whales go extinct then what are thay going to do.WHALES DON'T DESERVE ALL THISE.STOP WHALE HUNTING >.<

[ABelugaWhale]

you all are morons they want to stop wailing so they dont go extinct thats why they are trying to make it illegal everywhere

[cillantro]

I mean it is part of their tradition.As a vegetarian I feel nobody should eat meat and does that mean vegans can sue Australia?The problem with whites(sometimes mankind in general) is that they only understand things from their perspective.Australia should pay attention to its troubles like the rising deficit levels rather than pushing other countries around(esp potential buyers of raw materials like Japan).Aus has no clout internationally.Japan can hunt like inuit just once a year and ritually!

[Microglia1]

whites are the biggest hypocrites.  White Australias are a fucking joke. Japanese hunt for food not for fun. We don't hang bones and skulls on our walls like these bastards do. They don't want us to hunt whales yet they hunt their minority PEOPLES like animals.

[phil123711]

I 'm against Japanese whaling. I know about New Guinea,my uncle was there to the end. I just came back from looking at Australian war graves in New Guinea.

[JUKIO01]

@phil123711 dude, that was 60 years ago. times r differnent now,let the pass go

[info145]

Look at the motivation behind each party's activities. That's where the full stories and explanations can be found.

A) Why do the Japanese whalers do what they do?

B) Why do the Sea Shepherds do what they do?

Answer these two questions unto yourself. Be truthful

[VivaEcoCultBusiness]

@IMPO145　←　At first Final Answers

>Why do the Japanese whalers do what they do?

・・・ Japan CANNOT whale near Japan because Whale Cults Oppose, Japan MAY whale like 12 nations, No？

>Why do the Sea ShepFARTS do what they do?

・・・ In order Cheat FOOLS, in order to Raise Donation, in order to Utilize Whale for Anti-Whaling Business, in order to Have a Gorgeous Life, in order to Order New Business Item Vessels.　And Else？:))

Oh, in order to Order Bottles for Acid-Materials.

[nipponbaka]

@VivaEcoCultBusiness dont worry viva Japan wont be able to afford to whale for much longer, they cant even sell the 6000 tonnes of whale meat they have in cold storage now. and when Japan has to join the Asia Pacific free trade all the cheap beef chicken & pork that will flood Japan why would anybody want to eat an expensive unhealthy meat that contains high fat & has high mercury levels.

Unhealthy？　Then 140 Foreigners a day Visiting Tsukiji in Tokyo, and Eating Dangerous Fish？　All Sea Creatures HOLD Mercury slightly, And No-Whales DIED for Mercury maybe, No-Dolphins DIED for Mercury maybe.

Expensive？　Yeah, since You Whale Cult BEGAN Anti-Whaling Business in 1980s !!!

[phil123711]

Bring on the nuke to scare these murders away. Japs hate Aussies, look at their atrocities during World War 2. Murdering bastards.

[yamumsonfire]

@phil123711 Are you talking about Australia defending itself in WW2? The Japs killed thousands of harmless doctors and nurses when they were driven out of Papua New Guinea. Australia only defended itself and never caused atrocities. They weren't even part of the Japanese ocupation.

[VivaEcoCultBusiness]

@phil123711 >Bring on the nuke to scare these murders away　←　Buena Idea！　At same time please bomb Canada Korea Phil Indonesia Norway Iceland Greenland Russia Grenada St.Vincent & St.Lucia, But Aussie CANNOT bomb Alaska because Kevin Red ALLOWED Only Alaskan Eskimo's whaling OFFICIALLY 1 year ago.

Jap Hates Aussie？　Yep, but Jap Hates Only Simple Aussies who suddenly changed Whales from Material for Squeezing Oil to GOD in 1978.

No-Westerners PRAYED for Whale-Oil, But Origin Whale is God today！

[OnewhoWonders1]

Go Sea Shepard. Stop the Japanese from destroying their own culture again.

[deadmonkeytooth]

FUCK OFF JAPS, JAPS ARE NOT WELCOME IN AUSTRALIA.

[Styxman33]

minor damage to both vessels?! hahaha the whole front of the speed boat was torn off!

[F0REST568]

whale meat is so yummy ^ ^

[nathanhegg]

WTF hit them with the hose after we just crashed into their boat, it's almost as if the japanese are trying to Kill the People on board the smaller boat, not just destroy the boat. This is freezing cold antarctic water, not off-Shore a sunny Tropical beach.

[Titanmk]

Japans greedy government and other whaling countries gotta understand that the only reason we still have whales today is because of organisations like the uncorrupt members of IWC, SEA SHEPHERD and GREENPEACE. Short Sighted JAPANESE whalers are like rabid dogs of the ocean that thirst for whale meat, that roam ocean unable to control there lust for blood and money!!

[ruppertknickerbocker]

save a whale, Boycott Japan

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

Gosh this is two faced. It was Australia and the US who first encouraged Japan to develop whale hunting in order to profit both Australia and the US. They encouraged, even ordered the dependence of the Japanese people on whale meat. I find this bloody attitude reprehensible. It is typical of US bullshit. Sorry.

[pottergeek6]

John Key is Pro whaling, Newzealand is taking a turn for the worst.

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@pottergeek6 He is not pro whaling. He is just backing the US and Australian policy which started the modern Japanese whaling after WW2. Why? To provide the US and Australia with cheap oil of course. The US are a lot of cheats. First they order a defeated nation to pursue whaling, and later balme them for it. Sound familiar? They did with Saddam also over the bombing of the Kurds.

[Titanmk]

@SugarTomAppleRoger rubbish!! hes kissing the japans ass!!!!

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@Titanmk I don't know. We cannot afford to "make enemies" with nations. Other countries are doing a lot worse things than the Japanese, and we don't criticize them. If the whole thing goes to international court, and the pro whaling nations win, then there are no quotas - just kill them all. That would be like returning to the American way, and the times of Moby Dick when they killed 50,000 whales - only around Greenland!!!! It would take Japan about 600 years to kill that many worldwide.

[Titanmk]

@SugarTomAppleRoger If theres one thing i know about japanese culture is that they dont respect cowards for a start. Also if japan goes aggro at nz because of whale meat what sort allie does that make them, you have to ask yourself "would i want to know or associate with a country thats capable of backstabbing over something so small?". Where is the line drawn next time? and for what reason it may be no matter how small it is?

[Titanmk]

@SugarTomAppleRoger If austrailia goes to war with japan it would be because of japans greed and thats all !!!!.... basically you tell me who the bad guys are, the guys who wants to save whales or the guy who wants to kill them?...........now thats a moral question that a child could answer in a split second of thought, where as you could take your time to come to a conclusion and im guessing if you take any longer to answer that question you are dishonest!!...

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@Titanmk It is not quite that simple. You see, Japan started whaling in the Antarctic when ordered to do so by their Australian and American victors. Australian naval men went down with them shortly after WW2 and whaling experts. Having ordered Japan to do whaling, how can they now order them to stop it? Whaling has now become part of Japanese life thanks to the ones who conquered them.

[Titanmk]

@SugarTomAppleRoger I know exactly what your saying except your now saying that with all japans technology and might they lack the basic interlectual skills to just stop by themselves, maybe they dont want to stop. Why shouldnt they stop? we all get ordered to start things and then get ordered to stop, why are they so special? im not allowed to go over to the neighbours house and slay a dog or cat. The japs are not special and shouldnt be treated like such!

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@Titanmk That is true. However, the Japanese won't react to "bully boy" tactics, which seems to be what is happening now. Also, remember that the USA killed 50,000 whales in and around Greenland. Read the book "Moby Dick" which indicates the utter hatred Americans felt for the whale. We cannot be smug and blame Japan for something we have all done in the past. We have to be gentle and explain that there is a better way. Lawyers are not the answer.

[Titanmk]

@SugarTomAppleRoger How come you keep diving into the past when usa doesnt whale anymore. Whats happening now is what matters! How is taking someone to court a bully boy tactic?, Matter of fact its the only peaceful way to achieve it. What would you prefer? a fist fight? maybe a war? Everyone is blaming japan because they have continued while everyone else has stopped!

like i said before its a moral thing, and austrailia are the good guys this time around.

[etbella3]

@Titanmk Harry Truman was true to his school (of whales and dolphins) when he dropped two atomic bombs on Japan -- one for the whales, the other for the dolphins. Nobody cares about a country that slaughters and eats an endangered species (whales) and the King of the Sea (Flipper), especially since the Japs are already mercury-poisoned beyond help. Julius Robert Oppenheimer was sent here by the extraterrestrials to show America the way -- the one path to saving Planet Earth is to Kill The Japs.

[etbella3]

@etbella3 And Toto too? And the toddlers too. Their Jap mothers mercury-poisoned them while the children were in their wombs. 2010: The Year We Make Contact meant just that. The extraterrestrials are in control of the humans who have their fingers on the nuke button -- before the mercury-poisoned Japs can do any more damage to Mother Earth, Father Time will take them out. Hara-Kiri is code for Kyrie Eleison -- Lord Have Mercy On Us. Eleison -- the liaison between humans and ETs. Ely's Coming.

[imari11995]

@etbella3 I love this idea!!!

[Titanmk]

@SugarTomAppleRoger How is taking japan to court a bully boy tactic? its the only peaceful solution. why are you quoting moby dick, USA has stop whaling years ago. Yes we can blame japan because they are doing it for greed, i think you need to go on a vacation, swim in a ocean, walk along a beach and reef. Take photos, gather memories before Japan and Bp take it all away. Put down the dam books!! GET A LIFE!!

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@Titanmk Go and read about Moby Dick. You guys killed 50,000 whales just around Greenland. Read Moby Dick. An American who HATED whales. It was you Americans who ordered the Japanese to do whaling. It was you who taught them how to rape the Antarctic. That is the truth. Don't blame Japan. Blame the Americans. You also wiped out the Buffalo and hunted for "trophy animals" all over Africa. You are the bully boys, not the Japanese. You bombed Hiroshima.

[OnewhoWonders1]

@SugarTomAppleRoger The difference between USA and Japan? The USA learned from its mistakes and stopped a long time ago. You justify you're argument with a FICTIONAL novel based in more ignorant times. Its like the USA is a child that still has a lot of growing up to do but is at least now potty trained. Japan is like an older child which is still not even potty trained and America (and other nations) are trying to help Japan reach that critical milestone, but Japan just "don't wanna".

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@OnewhoWonders1 Hey. You are wrong. The USA did kill around 50,000 whales - around Greenland!!! It would take Japan about 250 yearsof whaling to achieve this carnage.

Do you know who FORCED Japan into whaling? 1) The Australians. 2) The Americans. The USA starved Japan out in WW2. MacArthur said they had to do whaling to feed themselves.

The Australians forced the Japanese to rape the Antarctic at the behest of Americans. The Japanese were ordered at bayonet onto Australian vessels. FACT!

[OnewhoWonders1]

@SugarTomAppleRoger You like facts huh? Like the fact that America wanted nothing to do with WWII until the Japanese broke the conventions of war and attacked Pearl Harbor, consequently bringing the wrath of America upon themselves. And while we're on the subject of "poor Japan" during the war shall we talk about the Japanese POW camps, or perhaps the Rape of Nanking? Maybe you like the fact that America only bombed Japan because they would not surrender despite the fact that they already lost?

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@OnewhoWonders1 Hw dare you. The USA has never tried to help Japan. The USA hates Japan. Everyone knows it. You just want the Japanese to lose face, to rub their noses in it. The Americans forced the Japanese into whaling as they refused to help the country. Sure, some Americans were kind, like President Truman, who stopped the bombing. Most Americans wanted to rain hundreds of nuclear bombs onto Japan. Now Americans say they are against whaling. What a crock of shit.

[OnewhoWonders1]

@SugarTomAppleRoger Have you ever actually read a history book? Truman ordered the bombing in the first place, because the Japanese were proving to be irrational crazed fanatics, indifferent to human life. The Japanese government ordered the mass suicide of countless rural villages in anticipation of the American invasion, and when the Americans did land in Japan what did they find? Hordes of Japanese civilians running to them for safety for their own government.

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@OnewhoWonders1 Yes. I'll give you facts. The Japanese unconditionally surrendered to you Amerians. They have to kowtow and call you Gods. I am a New Zealander. We did not surrender to you, so we can tell you what we think.

You are not Gods. You are just people like the rest of us, but bloody arrogant and smug ones. You smashed the Japanese people, and as the unconditionally surrendered, you can treat them as vermin, and you do. (continued)

[OnewhoWonders1]

@SugarTomAppleRoger Oh I see. The Americans had been plotting against Japan for over a hundred years. The sanctions weren't in place because Japan was invading China or anything (see Rape of Nanking), it was because the Americans secretly hated Japan. America wanted war and had been planning to attack Japan using lasers from its secret moon base on Mars. After which they were going to BBQ the Japanese civilians with flamethrowers so that they could eat their unborn babies. See anything wrong?

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@OnewhoWonders1 You know. The thing that angers me is that you Americans keep on blaming others. During WW2, New Zealand soldiers killed 48 Japanese prisoners from Guadalcanal who tried to rush the guard tower. It was considered a sickening incident, and New Zealanders felt guilty over it. We did not excuse this by pointing out what the Japanese did. You Americans are like the English. You keep commiting attrocities, but always blame others. Seriously. You are not to be trusted.

[OnewhoWonders1]

@SugarTomAppleRoger I never said that America did not have a long and complicated history, you did. The notion that any nation is either entirely good or evil is sickeningly ignorant, but you believe America to be incapable of anything good. You say the Japanese were the victims of WWII? I DARE you to say that in Nanking. The Nazis, the fascists, and the imperialists all needed to be stopped and an imperfect America risked everything along with the republics of the world to do just that.

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger shut up faggot kiwis dont talk like you poser

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest No. Because I am a Kiwi. You Australias forced the Japanese to whale anyway.

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger you wish your were kiwi bro, you aint lol

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest Aye right. Your name gives it away The Os The Best. Os stands for Australia. 

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger this is what i mean

your no kiwi lol if your english reading is that bad

it obviously says THEO'sthebest not the OZ's the best you bloody fool LOL

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest Theo's? That's not Kiwi. It sounds like The Os. to me. I have to admire your creativity. Yer a real Os.

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger you fucking idiot ahah theo's? haha

the fucking name is theo man jesus chris you poser rofl keep it up man any person that can speak english sees how much of a failure you are

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest Your name is Theo Man. That sounds German. Ok. Why are you on an Australian thread then? Surely you know that Australia supported whaling and even got Japan into whaling after the war. That is well documented.

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger im greek not german, though that is besides the point im kiwi of greek/maori heritage you on the other hand are a total poser stop it its obvious your here to cause hatred and im pretty sure your japanese

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest You sound like you are a racist. Just stick to the topic. What I said is historical fact. The Australian forced the Japanese to do whaling in the Antarctic region immediately after WW2. It has nothing to do with hatred, just fact.

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger how am i not sticking to the topic, we went from me telling you that your not a kiwi to me being german and australians forcing japanese to do whaling lol you sir are a big fool and like i said your no kiwi period you are japanese am i right?

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest Tēnā koe. I was born in New Zealand, and I guess you were also.

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger a little bit of moari doesnt fool me son your obviously not a native english speaker meaning you most defintley are not a kiwi meaning you more than likley werent born in NZ and this being youtube probably are some poser just trying to spread hate and shit stop it and get a life

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest Ok. I admit it. I am a pakeha and have no rights in New Zealand, according to you.

If you want to take that line, you have to remember that you Maoris are not the Originals in New Zealand either. So cut the bullshit. 

[theosthebest]

@SugarTomAppleRoger no NZ bred white guy will speak english in the manner you do stop fucking around and get a life seriously im 99.9% sure that your japanese lol this will be my last post to you mate good bye

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@theosthebest Well I do. I can assure you that I am from New Zealand. I now 80% sure you are not from New Zealand.

I certainly support Japan's position. I think that if you are a New Zealander, your country's position is complete bogus. I doubt you know anything about history or of the great Japanese people.

I suggest you take your obvious racism elsewhere and don't pollute youtube with it further. Thank you.

[edwardzai1437]

@SugarTomAppleRoger Holy crap! Mate.. i guess u got the wrong information about this. Please do more research in the world history before u start making urself look fool here. Great Japanese people? After what they did in WW2? U gotta be kidding!

PS: Anti Whaling!!

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@edwardzai1437 What did the great Japanese people do in WW2? Fight for their nation? Fight bravely? Hey. That sounds exactly what the United States did. They did happened to lose. Why? Because Japan is a little country. But boy, did they impress! You betcha.

[edwardzai1437]

@SugarTomAppleRoger I guess u forgot what the Japanese did with our POW and the peoples around Asia and South East Asia.

Our Nation, the OZ fought along side by side with the US to deff the Pacific Sea and ur little islands, but is this what we got as a feedback?

Good job mate... a good representative from NZ!

[edwardzai1437]

@SugarTomAppleRoger We can forgive, but we'll never forget about the past!

BTW, STOP the WHALING!!!

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@OnewhoWonders1 Japan was forced into war by crippling sanctions. The Americans had always hated the "Japs" as they called them. They still do. Japanese civilians did not run to the Americans. Why would they? The Americans murdered them with flamethrowers. The woman and children jumped over the cliff to avoid rapes and executions. Americans hated the Japanese women and children, and subjected women to rape, the same as happens even today. It is called the spoils of war. Americans are hard.

[Logicbeatslies]

This is a balanced report.
