  • fuckin weeabo. japan commits crime, its a-ok as long as they keep making the porno. get fucked, the americans should have dropped 3 bombs cos 2 obviously didnt pull these savages back in line. 

  • Just because whaling is sustainable doesn't make it okay. Quite frankly whaling is a brutal practice that Japan should have grown out of by now. Also Japan is now contracted to catch over 1200 Minke whales. Humpback whales are down in numbers and are still being killed. Finally you failed to look at the issue of "killing whales for 'RESEARCH'"... Yer right. Stupid racist.

  • 私 熱意 水俣病

  • Your American and you stick up for Japans 25 years of slaughter after the world said no more to it. But oh ya we have to have their useless scientific research they gather from the countless thousands they kill don't we ? Give your ficken head a shake !

  • Again Japan pulls out the race card to deflect attention away from their activities.

  • I want you not to telecast the animated cartoon of Japan in Australia.

  • LOOK WHERE JAPAN IS NOW, you guys are so easy to kill, one tsunami killing 10,000 people? its just water! can't you cunts swim or something? oh but of course we had cyclone Yasi or whatever, not one Aussie death, cause were MADD BROO!

  • The bowhead whale, the whale that they are allowing north american aboriginals to hunt, is listed as a "species of least concern". There are around 25,000 of them worldwide. That's not to say that large scale whaling should be allowed, but the population can certainly handle losing 41 individuals. The north pacific right whale, on the other hand, which they are NOT whaling, has around 400-900 individuals. Get your facts in order.

  • Sigh...when will the Japs learn: we don't care what you think lol. You've proven that you are cold-blooded savages, why would we listen to what you have to say?

  • @sneeptheelite Sink under the Tokyo bay!

  • Comment removed

  • @KatanaKenn why the hell did u live there? lol england is much more beautyful unlike australia ,

  • @XDalliwantisyou england is a dank shithole. australia is nice to visit but horrible to live in. japan is crowded and full of rapists

  • @KatanaKenn

    thanks

  • They don't nearly eat as much wale as you eat cock.

  • this why u japanese are so hated i smile when i think of all the you japs dying of piss green cancer due to the bomb maybe you need another ha ha ha ha just joking endangered animals are delicous shark deserve their fins chopped of drift nets just clean the ocean, bribing votes increases your honour

  • Whaling propoganda in its cheapest nastiest form! Has anybody here watched the film The Cove? 22,000 dolphins lured to their death by the Japanese every year. All behind barb wired heavily secured fences to keep their secret hidden. A grammy award winning film produced by people of the world. The Cove is also a film Japans government tried to silence.

  • @Achalel those water were made ours and new zealands after ww2 and the un says they are our waters by law they are ours

  • The Japanese are illegally poaching whales in a sanctuary. The Japs lie by claiming they are only doing research. This is the same culture that gave us Imperial Japan bombing Pearl Harbor, the Batan death march, and the massacre of Nanking! Japan has NO right to exploit any species to extinction. SAVE THE WHALES! BOYCOTT ALL JAPANESE PRODUCTS!

  • @socalsir other countrys kill whales too like norway

  • @SuperR31 yeah but norway has been eating whale since the vikings it's cultural and they have a very small amount where as the japs started during ww2 due to lack of food and the fact that they hunt in australian waters where there are protected is agenced international law which japan has a history of egnoring

  • @SuperR31 sure do. but not in australian waters

  • @Achalel I don't deny that at all. This is an ongoing political debate. I also note that Japan is currently attempting to buy New Zealand's vote with more bribes for them. It all sounds quite Yakuza. Corruption, sleaze, bully boy tactics. I suspect the next ANZAC day, remembering the wars, there will be a great chill in relations between Australia, New Zealand and Japan. You show no respect to our waters. Other countries have their own agendas for Antarctica, they want the oil, they don't care.

  • @Achalel The Antarctic waters were proclaimed an Australian and New Zealand protectorate after World War II, especially to protect the South Pacific from the atrocities of the Japanese, who raped and pillaged the South Pacific and bombed Darwin and Sydney in Australia. An Australian, Doc Evett was one of the founders of the UN and the protectorate treaties. The UN might have said other things since then, but the UN, protecting the south pacific from Japan, which was our enemy, is law still here.

  • @saintfletcher The Japanese media is now trying to back off from whaling as more information is being released about how bad Japan was in WWII. Japan bombed Australia and we were never compensated, and we never provoked Japan. The HMAS Sydney was bombed by Japan before WWII, killing 600 Australians, this is about to be released. Thousands of Australian women were raped by Japanese soldiers, Japan only apologized last year. Japan is backing off as a time bomb of information will be released.

  • @saintfletcher After the information is released to the UN, Australia and New Zealand will put their case that we simply cannot trust Japan barging into our waters so aggressively and demanding that we get out of their way. Australia never bombed Horoshima or Nagasaki, that was the USA. If relations sour between our countries, then Japan will be the loser. We have all the food, you have a failing economy. Australia doesn't need Japan, Japan needs Australia. Show some respect to our waters.

  • @Achalel I don't know for sure what the Sea Shepherd allegedly do, and neither do you. These are all allegations, and nothing is proven guilty without evidence. The evidence that we have in Australia is that the Japanese whalers are illegally killing whales in Australian and New Zealand world heritage listed waters. The Japanese are the foreigners in the south Pacific. What the Japanese do in Japan is not our concern. The Japanese culture is us to the Japanese. But this is our home.

  • @saintfletcher Typo: not "us to the Japanese" it should be: "up to the Japanese". Blessings and peace FLETCHER

  • Australians love Dragonball Z the best cartoon Japan is good at making popular shows like pokemon,trasformers,yu gi oh,super sentai or the american verision called "Power Rangers" that took the costumes from super sentai and put american actors in them.

  • @SuperR31 Some do. I've never heard of them.

  • This promotes violence and hate towards Australia. This is no way to deal with a problem. Violent messages promotes violence. If Australia promoted such violence towards Japanese, there would be an international outcry. But Japan is huge in Asia, and Australians are a minority group. Such bullying and violent intent is vary negative in our relations between Japan and Australia. We are economies that are co-dependent and we just don't need this violent kind of stuff.

  • @Chriomuz

    Do not confuse the issue of whaling with the complaint of your life. ur stupid.

  • Hahaha Im not stupid, im simply sharing.

  • Anyway, do not comment by your complaint of the past life.

  • I dont care what you think, I will share what I want to share because I have liberty.

    People could learn things from other peoples lives. If you dont want my comments just ignore them, I dont care.

  • It`s popular misconception that Japan is catching endangered speices of whale. Even an Australian resercher says Japanese whaling is sustainable. Look it up on the Internet.

  • >whaaaaaale

    Thank you  so much.

  • According to a recent

    report by the Brussels-based Center for a New Europe (CNE). The CNE finds,

    "6,600 people die every day in the world because of the trading rules of

    the European Union (EU). That is 275 people every hour." Think of it like

    crashing a Boeing 747 filled with people every hour, 24 hours per day.

  • Comment removed

  • This is not an Australia - japan Issue, in 1986 the numbers of humpbacked whales was reduced to a few 100 and they were on the brink of extinction, only a ban on their hunting has allowed them to come back from the edge of destruction.

    BTW eating whale meat is NOT part of Japanese culture it only started post world war 2 in a major form when Gen Mc Arthur ordered fishing fleets to hunt whale to compensate for the food shortages.

    We do not have the right to drive another species to extinction !

  • Japan hunts the whale with a lot of numbers.

  • ピッコロさん頑張れ!www

    Go piccolo go!! xD

  • Humans still do not know enough about Sea Life altogether. So they cannot judge if there can be a pathological overpopulation of whales or any other sea creature.

    For example a Bowhead Whale can live for about 200 years. Gives me a strange feeling, if I kill it...

  • どうしてオーストラリア人は死物狂いで反日ですか?

    Why is the Australian desperate anti-Japan?

  • 20% of global warming is due to livestock industry as United Nation FAO concluded. Beef is the biggest reason of environmental hazard and plight of many redlisted animals. Whales are over populated now, and this strange debate contuinues. Is there any University in Australia?

  • i'm Aussie and i got to agree with you... this is embarassing as hel. i.e Australian government making an absolute idiot of itself by intervening in this matter. Livestock and factory farming are 10 times worse than any form of whaling. That's toward environment and to the animals. If whaling happens in Australian waters, the issue is about our waters, not whaling. However currently, it's not.

  • Foolish Australian

  • sigh

  • ならてめぇらは

    肉類を食べんなよ!

  • omg - lol this is sooo stupid! do your homework whaaaale - americans dont hunt N.pac right whales - the small inupiat tribe hunts bowheads - and there are rebounding in population - dont believe this garbage! and dont lump tribal and commercial whaling together - this was so lame i am embarrassed for you whaaale - get your facts straight yoshi!

    eskimo.whaler

  • Ok, I checked the facts and Humpbacks aren't as endangered as I thought. However, your video title is offensive and quite alot of other things too, so just think about it, as we all know who is the most racist country.

  • Your arguments may be correct, however, the title is extremely offensive to me.

    I'll give you are reason to hate me if you wish.

  • caricaturing greenpeace,sea shepherd and the like as big purple monsters is a bit too much.

  • yeah... the only US people that hunt whales are alaska natives and they only hunt them for food and they dont sell it to the rest of the country so its not really the same

  • 日本の領海で捕鯨して日本人が食べるなら君は日本の捕鯨に賛成し­てくれるのかな?

    反捕鯨国家は日本が沿岸での漁業をするのに反対しているんだよ

    ちなみにアラスカでは鯨を観光土産として売っているよ

    商業に利用しているよね?許していいのかい?

  • This is a really horrific piece of video. It's quite obviously aimed at young children (it's hard to imagine anyone older being able to sit through this crap) but it's some of the most one sided propaganda I've ever seen. Who made this stuff, the whalers I'm guessing? Japan has a lot of good things in its culture, a lot of stuff I personally admire but sh*t like this rabidly pro-whaling video for kids shows Japans dark side, the anti-though, brainwashing authoritarianism by the corporate state.

  • It was dubbed and subbed with the whaling information.

    You really thought that the japanese version of Dragonball Z had pro-whaling references? You sure are daft.

  • winowmaker90: So what are you saying, that this scene was cut together from a bunch of other things and re subtitled? Yeah, it could be done but I don't think it has been here. For one thing, there's too much animation specific to the subject matter and for another, the dialogue fits the video too well. Are you saying this *wasn't* made by some proffesional studio? If not then hats off to whoever pulled this together because it's *very* well done.

  • Animation specific to the subject matter? IT'S DRAGONBALL Z. WHAT'S SPECIFIC ABOUT IT?

    Very well done?

    ANYBODY can get an already-existing cartoon, edit scenes in Pinnacle studio, Adobe Premier, Windows movie maker and even iMovie and then add subtitles.

  • windowmake90: I was refering more to the similar animation style of the sashimi and the whale, suggesting that it's probably orriginal as opposed to being spliced in from elsewhere. Of course what would really settle it would be someone who speaks Japanese..

  • 僕は日本語をはなします。。。 ばか

    Translated, it says "I speak japanese, you idiot".

    The stuff they're talking about in he video IS about whaling, but it's not from the original episode of Dragonball Z, it's been dubbed over for comedic effect.

    Didn't you even notice that one moment frieza looks like how he does at the start with the pink flesh on his face, and then later he's all smooth and white/purple (his final form).

    IT SHOWS THAT IT'S BEEN TAMPERED WITH.

  • Fair enough. I didn't notice the subtle differences in the character because I'm not a fan of either the show or the genre overall; give me Akira or Perfect Blue any day. Going by what I understand as the usual fare for these fairly mindless shows, like the featured "Z" thing, it seemed perfectly plasable to me. And Japanese culture, though I admire many things about it, *does* have a dark side.

  • well tangent, you made a dickhead of yourself.

  • amazing! brilliant! the truth is revield!

  • shoot australia real racists nazi!

  • every dickhead who feels fascinated about the japanese culture,should follow their idols and do what they love the most:

    COMMIT SUICIDE

  • what will America do with these dead whales?

    I read Japanese scientists stole some science-meat is that true?

    if America is going to hunt some whales, why can't I keep whale bones that wash ashore?

  • shintaroDaKilla and bootrous both think that they're opinions matter the most. LOOK! they're discussion goes over 8 pages,just look,but don't read.

  • Japan is a rogue state supporting whale poaching. Killing whales has been illegal since 1986 and one day Japan is going to have to pay the piper.

    Donate to Sea Shepherd, boycott Japan.

    :)

  • Why do people hate wailing anyway? its the same as collecting fish for the markets, people have to make money.

  • みなさんflumoxed1に気をつけましょう!

    ちゅうごく人です。かなりウザい、

  • Save Japan!

    KILL ALL WHALES!

  • What is the diffence between whale and KANGOLO? Can Aussie kill Kangolo?

  • kangaroos? kangaroos are i think abundant and some see them as pests.

    whales are considerd pests because they compete for fish with humans

  • いちいち鯨問題にてめーらの韓国嫌いを持ち出すなよ。

    関係ねーだろばーか。

  • Korean=Aussie The same level.

    The people have a low level of culture.

    Their aliases...

    Austracist or Austkorean.

  • 70% Japanese oppose whaling, so it is possible to stop whaling by forcing Japanese Diet candidates to take stand against whaling before election. It must be made election issue.

    Racist attacks on Japan are nonhelpful, because they make "seige mentality" and create indignation against Australian viewpoint.

    I am not Japanese, and I don't appreciate racism, because I am ever the foreigner. I got better treatment in Japan than Korea, but that is just my experience, not other's.

  • I agree. Both of us should get off youtube and do something!

  • i love whale meat taste very good i will countinue eating because i want to

  • Tinnywhale22 and Logicbeatslies's PLAY BOOK to counter Shintaro's FACTS of AUSSIE ECO-HYPOCRISY:

    1. DENY SHINTARO IS KOREAN

    2. CITE 70yo JAPANESE ATROCITIES

    3. CLAIM SHINTARO'S FACTS ARE UNTRUE offering no proof.

    3. MAKE UP FAKE STATISTICS. ">50% Australian nonwhite." (8% nonwhite. CIA Factbook)

    4. Claim SHINTARO MISUNDERSTOOD ENGLISH. ("Look up 'protected' in dictionary, Jap boy!")

    5. Make PERSONAL ATTACK. ("Shintaro is a mental case, molestation victim, right winger.")

  • Shintaro explain what you stand for rather than saying everyone is racist. The people you are fighting with might start agreeing with you

  • man you should worry about your own race -North Korea. Plenty of threatened species and people there.

  • I care deeply about North Korea.

    Last week 15 North Koreans were shot by the North Korean government when they tried to pass into China to obtain food from relatives.

    China government pays reward to Chinese for informing on escaped North Koreans. Escaped North Koreans returned by China to North Korea for execution.

    This is human rights violation. My people are being starved to death and forced to worship Kim Jung-Il while world does nothing and China promotes it.

  • So why have you decided to aim all your anger at Australia? Don't you think we already know what problems exist in our own country? Before you start making claims that everyone is racist, you better look at yourself and your own neighbourhood first

  • I don't mind open-minded Australians like you who admit mistakes and try to fix eco-problems. I also oppose whaling like you.

    I mind racist attacks by bigoted eco-hypocrite Australians like tinnywhale22, Logicbeatslies, etc.

  • There are a lot of racist comments from Australians and Japanese. I don't think these represent either country. As I said I lived in Japan for 3 years and I love it there. I just think that Australians place a very high value on whales. They are such an important part of the ocean ecosystem and there is a belief that no one really understands how important they are to maintaining the balance in our seas. cont...

  • Of course Australians care about our endangered native species. It is very hard to undo the mistakes of previous generations. Introduced species do more damage than humans directly do at the moment. Foxes, cane toads, cats, dogs, rabbits, introduced birds, camels, bufalo etc are doing damage everyday to habitats and local species. We are doing our best to stop this too but when whales are killed unnecessarily it upsets many Australians for many different reasons

  • AUSTRALIAN HYPOCRITES KILL

    "Australia has the highest number of threatened amphibians and reptiles in the IUCN's Red List of Threatened Species...

    "Australia has the second highest annual ranking of global threatened animal species, according to the World Conservation Union's (IUCN) Red List...

    "A large number of animal species are moving into the threatened category FOR THE FIRST TIME, primarily as a result of LANDCLEARING, the impact of weeds and pests and the loss of wetland habitat."

  • AUSTRALIA = HABITAT DESTRUCTION

    "Australia is second only to China in the number of sheep grazed, some 123 million, producing wool worth $5 billion, but leaving the land devegetated (O'Neill 1997). Gordon Grigg, professor of zoology at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, estimates that 700,000 square miles of arid zone habitat, or over half of Australia, are so degraded from sheep grazing that they may become permanent desert (Grigg 2000)."

  • AUSTRALIANS TORTURE SHEEP

    "Mulesing is the surgical removal of strips of wool-bearing wrinkle skin from around the breach of a sheep... The Australian Veterinary Association strongly supports the 'development and implementation of alternatives that are less painful.'... In early November, 2004, representatives of the Australian wool industry met and voted to phase out the practice of mulesing in Australia by 31 December 2010."

  • maybe you would prefer the sheep die slowly because of infections?? You said it yourself- the practice will be phased out in 2 years. Us Aussies are so evil aren't we??

  • Don't breed sheep. Sheep and cows make a desert of Australia through overgrazing: "over half of Ausralia... degraded from sheep grazing... may become permanent desert."

  • That's why we need to start eating kangaroo meat instead.

  • US businesses moved their dirtiest factories to China to escape US regulation. Now Japan's rice production has decreased 10% owing to pollution from China. Western countries never take responsibility for causing ecological nightmares in other countries.

    If you search for insane troops, you can find how Americans treat Iraqis. In Japan 60 years ago, there was no food, and to prevent starvation, sex with American GI was the only possibility. Now it is the same with US, UK, and Australian soldier.

  • CIA Factbook on Australia: "soil erosion from overgrazing, industrial development, urbanization, and poor farming practices; soil salinity rising due to the use of poor quality water; desertification; clearing for agricultural purposes threatens the natural habitat of many unique animal and plant species; the Great Barrier Reef off the northeast coast, the largest coral reef in the world, is threatened by increased shipping and its popularity as a tourist site"

  • We are in the middle of a fucking drought you dip-shit. Australia is completely different from anything you could understand. Why the fuck would property owners deliberately destroy their own land? What does your fucked up racist mind imagine is going on? You have no fucking idea about Australia so don't use struggling drought ridden farmers for your angry misguided cause. Tell me what caused you to hate Australia so much?

  • Who cares about the AWB. They are a corporation, not part of the Australian government but since you care so much: the AWB gained the first Western contract since the UN embargo starting around the first Gulf War. shipments of wheat were stalled due to Iraqi claims that the shipments were contaminated. If Korea is starving then why doesn't Kim Jong Il use aid money for food and not guns. don't blame australia for that shit

  • The AWB used to be governmental at the time the bribes were paid.

    People are starving all over the world owing to high commodity prices, while Australia sits on silo after silo of grain, waiting for the absolute highest bidder.

  • Japan is not stockpiling whale meat.

    AUSTRALIA IS STOCKPILING WHEAT WHILE PEOPLE STARVE IN AFRICA AND NORTH KOREA.

    "Iraq has suspended business dealings with Australia's monopoly wheat exporter AWB..."

    "An Australian government inquiry is currently investigating claims that AWB paid more than $200m to Saddam Hussein's regime, as part of the UN oil-for-food programme."

    "A bumper harvest of around 24 million tonnes of wheat is currently stored in silos..."

    GREED. HYPOCRISY. AUSTRALIA.

  • of course we stock pile our grain fuckstick, australia is in the middle of the worst drought in history

  • The drought is caused by Australia's unenlightened, exploitive agrobusiness. Please consult CIA Factbook for critique. Yes, you will become a desert by treating your land as a limitless resource, as contrasted with Japanese conservation of whales.

  • did anybody know where in Tokyo I can find whale sashimi or any other whale dishes ??

  • Never stop the righteous comment for the sake of glorious Japanese samurai spirit whale research!

    Sacrifice whale at Yasukuni Shrine to ancestor Gods Tojo and Hirohito and drink the blood of whale for grow the larger manhood and defeat the racist white supremacist for control of ocean and make ocean Whale-free zone!

  • Kill all whale!

    Whale is terrorist for wat the fish too much.

    Save Japan race from starvation.

    Create WHALE-FREE ocean.

    Save Japan research culture.

  • Stop that frigging shallow comment

  • The Japanese Fisheries Agency is paying people to post racist propaganda to divert attention from its whaling. This cowardly, cynical ploy is part of a sustained campaign for a few rich men to secure whaling rights so that they can continue to profit by destroying the marine environment.

    The Japanese people are being lied to by their own government. HELP these people AND the whales; make the Japanese Fisheries Agency accountable for its actions. It's not about race, it's PURELY ABOUT GREED.

  • Nice "story." Any evidence?

    Nobody is paying me to post anything. And I'm not even Japanese. I am Korean in Japan.

  • No, you check out - kinda

    You not in any sense honest, but you are doing it off your own back.

  • Are you seriously saying that there are other people who are paid by Japanese whalers to make YouTube propaganda posts? If so, who?

  • can u guys stop replying to me? I don't care anymore. It's useless to fight a battle that cannot be won, so I wont bother trying anymore

  • What he is saying is that some people don't care for facts, when arguing...

  • I know. I don't have any real bias against not killing certain animals, it's just that whales are slowy killed. And all those giving me negative points, it's just because I have a different opinion, isnt it?

  • Japan ...stop killing whales

    Austraila ...google racism

  • "Australia's carbon intensity of GDP (amount of carbon burned as fossil fuel per dollar of wealth created) is 25 per cent higher than the world average. It is a little higher than the USA and nearly double that of Europe and Japan. Therefore, the overall carbon efficiency of the economy, per unit of fossil fuel used, is about half that for Europe and Japan."

  • "Australia, with 0.32 per cent of the world population, contributes 1.43 per cent of CO2 emissions from fossil fuels."

    "Australia's per capita emissions in 2004 were 4.5 times the global average, just below the value for the USA."

    "Australia's carbon intensity of energy... is... 25 to 30 per cent higher than values for the USA, Europe and Japan. Therefore, the energy efficiency of fossil fuel use is significantly lower in Australia than in these other developed countries."

  • Soon Japanese fighting samurai spirit will win victory in War On Whales.

    Save Japanese great culture. Kill ALL whale!

  • Pray at Yasukuni Shrine for Japanese victory in War on Whales to make ocean WHALE-FREE!

  • Why is it that so many Japanese take it so personally that one of their commercial industries gets criticized? It's like the fishing companies ordered them all to respond by telling them lies like 'their culture is in danger' so the people automatically respond by reciting the same propaganda. It's all a lot like how so many Japanese were brainwashed to mindlessly die for their emporer in the war.

  • I don't care for whaling industry. I simply object to white racist hypocrisy of country that is far less eco-friendly than Japan, far less humane, with higher crime, slaughtering endangered species, inhumanely killing animals, but then suddenly found religion on the matters of whales.

    First remove the skyscraper that is stuck in your own eye before trying to help Japan remove splinter from its own.

  • One, not all of Japan is clean of racism. They have an offical organized group who want foreingers out of the country. And we don't slaughter endangered species. Name some of them. I don't care too much about the whaling issue. And it's not just Australians who are trying to stop Japan. No one has made one comment about how racist America is in this issue

  • I want foreigners out Japan too. Unfortunately, I am Korean, so I would have to leave too.

    Australians do slaughter endangered species like dingos and rare cockatoos, but the main destruction is HABITAT DESTRUCTION, overgrazing, desertification, etc. Australia is eco-nightmare. It's much worse than killing 1000 among 100,000 Minke whales.

  • Nobody mentioned USA racism, because everyone know it already. Just type "American Troops Going Insane" into YouTube. Australia needs more thorough exposure.

  • Parrots like Pepperberg's Alex and N'gisi have learned to use language. They recognize concepts (all green squares) and count them. They can explain how one object is different from another (blue key is bigger than red key).

    Whales just sing some song. They do not use sounds to stand for things that are combined using grammar. No whale has been found to have an IQ approaching parrot.

    But Australians destroy parrot and cockatoo habitat, grow monocultures, and slaughter these brainy animals.

  • Kill what endangered species? Minke whales are plentiful. There are nearly one million. It is necessary to kill a few other whales (fewer than 50) for research.

    Are you talking about Australian farmers shooting endangered dingo without permits? Are you talking about white racists bringing nonnative species to Australia--for example, domesticated dogs, to interbreed with dingos and destroy the species? Do you mean bringing rabbits, sheep, and cows, to overgraze and turn Australia into a desert?

  • Kill ALL whales now! Whale and Ausotorarian is terrorist of ocean because whale eat the fish too much and Ausotorarian defy sacred research of brave Japan scientist.

    Japan War on Whales must not falter. On to victory! Make ocean WHALE-FREE! Great Japan research can make dream come true. Sacrifice whale to Japanese Gods at Yasukuni! Drink whale blood for Japanese Gods Tojo and Hirohito.

  • I am opposed to whaling personally, and I am a vegetarian. But I do not believe in dictating how others should behave, treating myself as superior.

    I do not believe that one nation should dictate to another nation which animals are precious and intelligent.

    I am waiting for scientific proof that whales are more intelligent than the tens of thousands of parrots, cockatoos, and galahs that are slaughtered by Australians, shot or clubbed, some dying slow and agonizing deaths from minor wounds.

  • Australia makes double the CO2 per capita of Japan.

  • I'm not sure if it's true or not, but it is completely irrelevant. What does CO2 have to do with the hunting of whales. And I said I wasn't against whaling except for the slow methods. Bringing that up just shows that you cannot come up with a new arguement to counter what I said so you try to attack Australia on something completely different.

  • You are not sure that it is true because you couldn't spare two minutes to use Google.

    What does CO2 have to do with hunting whales?

    The REAL threat to whales is pollution and rising water temperatures caused by global warming. These are destroying the whale's habitat and the animals on which the whales feed.

    If you think that killing 1000 of 1,000,000 Minke whales is going to push them to extinction, you obviously don't know how to use a calculator.

  • I didn't say that they're going to be extinct because of whaling. The only thing I'm against is the slow and painful method. And I did use google, but didn't find anything. And I just checked google images, and Japan has HIGHER than Australia according to a 1998 graph.

  • did you take into account the fact that Australia doesn't use nuclear energy? Australia is a bigger, less densely populated country and therefore is more reliant on car travel. Maybe thats why it has a higher CO2 emission rate per capita. I'm not saying it is ok but Australia is taking steps to reduce CO2 and hopefully will reduce it's emissions to even less than Japan

  • Although Australia has vast rural expanses, contrary to stereotype, most Australians live in urban centers.

  • Well thankyou for telling me about my own country but I'm afraid you're wcars are heavily relied on in Australia. The population is not very dense, even in urban centres compared to countries such as Korea and Japan. Many people drive to work, school, uni etc as the public transport is not good enough. Buses are much more commonly used than trains and transport across the country is done by trucks

  • Parrots and Gallahs like Alex and N'gisi can use language, new concepts.

    So why am I educating Australians about parrots and gallahs? Because their farmers treat them as crop-eating pests.

    ENDANGERED BRAINY PARROTS DIE SLOW, AGONIZING DEATHS FROM AUSTRALIAN BUCKSHOT.

    They slaughter them by the thousands, and don't even use the meat of the dead bodies. This violates COMMON HUMAN DECENCY TO RESPECT INTELLIGENT LIFE. This violates even the LAW OF THE JUNGLE not to kill and waste carcass.

  • first clubbed, now buckshotted?

    I can tell you now, the shotgun is NOT a weapon that is very effective against parrots, given the australian ban on pump-action weapons.

    they are only parrots, who cares?

    Just like the whales, who cares?

    Even if they die out, what does it matter?

    one less pretty thing to watch movies about?

    whoopdy doo, sae your protesting for global warming, which actually matters for something.

  • Japan is spending BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to help poor countries cut CO2 emissions. Greenhouse gasses are destroying the whale's habitat and killing more whales than any harpoon.

  • agreed

  • Propoganda is so interesting! And why only killing the whales is bad I don't understand. Please watch cows being slaughtered for meat sometime if you're not sure.

    What's wrong with extinction of a species? Nothing I guess unless there is some intrinsic value placed on a life form...

  • "What's wrong with extinction of a species? Nothing I guess unless there is some intrinsic value placed on a life form..."

    You want a world with only humans and no wild creatures? How destructive!

  • Have you no concept of sarcasm? Sorry to be indirect in my phraseology.

  • But cows are killed quickly

  • Those who force own culture to other countries is called racist. And why whaling is bad?

  • I like to restate that the only thing I have against whaling is the method, and that I find most hunting unneccesarry but I don't particualy care. But this video is racist to Australians by calling us racist. Australia isn't racist, it is multicultural. If the country was racist, the whole country would hate itself.

  • dont say that the aussies are racist towards japan they are very passionate about the protection of whales they are disgusted by it, japan are a bunch of weirdos. there are things that go on in aus that i dont agree with ie killing kangaroos and other australian native animals thats just sick but japan are sick too!

  • Okay, let you know the fact. Some whales are exterminate & in danger of extinction because of the commercial hunting of western countries in 18-19 century. Now number of some whales are recovered. It's time to restart commercial hunting of minke whales.

  • You're right. Australia isn't racist. They dislike whaling. Japan has been whaling in Australian waters so that's why they have come under so much heat. I don't have anything against whaling specifically, thought the methods should be stopped and improved to be more humane (instead of the grenade harpoons which cause a slowdeath). I don't like hunting in general, because it is unneccesary in a world where we no farm animals, and can kill them peacefully. I love Japan, I'm living there no.

  • >Japan has been whaling in Australian waters i guess you mistakes Southern Ocean Sanctuaries and Antarctic for your own.

    >the methods should be stopped and improved to be more humane (instead of the grenade harpoons which cause a slowdeath). I agree with you for more humane method but

    "Humane Killing method" contradict itself...

  • It's not just in Southern ocean sactuaries. Also, they are called sanctuaries for a reason. Sanctuaries are meant to keep its animals safe.

  • let the japanese whale...why do we care if they whale...we didnt care about teh dodos...or about the other 1000s of animals....just dont hate what u dont understand!

  • That occured back when we didn'tknow better. The whole reason for the restricions on whale hunting is because whales nearly went extinct due to uncontrolled hunting. These days we are trying to protect animals.

  • Some whales are exterminated and in danger of extinction because of the commercial whaling of western countris in 18-19 century just for the oil. And now number of whales like minke is recovered. It's time to resume commercial hunting of minke whales.

  • For sure. Like I said, all I have against whaling is the method. Well, it's sustainable to whale at least. I don't believe it's neccesary.

  • so if i say.....iraq is a sanctuary....would america gtfo? i doubt that....just coz u call it sumthing doesnt make it sumfin...
