Pierce Brosnan Speaks Out Against Iceland's Illegal Whaling

[ITSGLENN83]

can any of you dumb fucks tell me how this is illegal?

what would the charges be in a court room?

[rafflesia]

Go, Pierce!!!

[ibbi30]

Ohh and btw, if Iceland kills whales it is a crime ? Then what is the Usa killing of Iraqi civilians called ?

[Rebound321]

@ibbi30 Egskriva sona so teir nota ikki gúgltransleitt. Eggert verad svarra, bra dröllerar. egaetlaad þumlatá nitur og sjiá vidbrogdteirra ;)

[ibbi30]

@PanzerBlitz43 Please, take your shit elsewhere. I am 16, I can't even vote now, 3 years after the crash, and when the government that deregulated the economy and caused great damage to the highlands, I was what ? I was probably around 8 years old or something.

Polar bears did not use to have Iceland as their home ! They were never able to adapt to Iceland ice less nature in the summer. They came over and over and always died.

Beside the fact we are not selfish criminals. I thing are a racist.

[PanzerBlitz43]

It's over for you Iceland filth, there are now diplomatic sanctions against your so called country and it's not only the US who is watching your every move it's all the countries that actually care about the envronment in Europe and elsewhere. You make one wrong move and there will be trade sanctions that will turn you into beggars. If it ever comes to that I'd support a nuclear war wiping out your island.

[appelsina87]

If you dint know Mr.Pierce Brosnan US are killing way more whales than Iceland So get your facts straight you dumb fuck....

[assmanfromhell9000]

Wtf its not fucking illegal you stupid fucking shithead and why is it wrong to kill whale because its better than other animals?!?! The species we hunt arent endangered so please just shut the fuck up

[PanzerBlitz43]

@assmanfromhell9000 your Iceland user name says it all.. and I'm praying every day that Icelanders get nature's justice and one of your volcanos kills you all

[TotiDan123]

Get your facts straight Mr. Bond...

[kakake12]

How about you idiot Americans stop the three wars you're in, abolish the death penalty and stop supporting Israel before you attack a nation of 320 000-ish for being "barbaric". And maybe considering not whaling yourselves you morons.

[ibbi30]

Btw, the character limit hindered me from stating that I am an environmentalist. I am just not against hunting, as long as the hunters are careful and not endangering the species they hunt.

The environmental issue in Iceland in my opinion is a of Icelandic and American causes. The right wing parties in Iceland wanted Alcoa to build aluminium smelting plants in Iceland and sell them energy. In order to do that they had to sink and destroy great natural treasurers.

Watch the movie Draumalandið !

[ibbi30]

OK. Like others have stated, the whales we hunt are not endangered. Do you really believe that Iceland is going to exterminate a species that she hunts ? We live in a rather cold land, but we have one of the most productive fishing zones in the world, we, a nation of 300 000, fish over 1 % of all fish in the world. Fishing is really important !

Besides, I and most Icelanders don't wan't species extinct, even if we hunt.

This video has open my eyes to the fact how easy it is to trick people.

[PanzerBlitz43]

@ibbi but selfish tricks is what you savages do..you elected your criminal inbreds to rip off the whole country with banking scams, and still did nothing about it..that's what Iceland is about, selfish criminal greed. Iceland's full of scum..redneck terrorists who don't deserve oxygen. Polar bears used to have Iceland as their home, twice when a polar bear drifted over there on ice floes, you savagely killed them instead of capturing them, Iceland deserves a major volcano to get rid of them all

[Thurdeningen]

Well mr. Bond, seems like you've been cought lying.

[Quintien1]

We should be proud that we still have some of these beautiful magnificent animals on this planet. All of us should do everything to ensure their existence for the future.

To hunt these social high-developed creatures is a crime against civilisation and future generations. Think how many more things threatens these animals, pollution, radioactivity (japan), oil, islands of plastic that threatens all Maritime life etc. Think beyond today and protect them for now and the future!

[AngelaNAiken]

DROWN THE WHALERS....REMEMBER THE ESSEX

[MrAtheist1984]

Fuck you Brosnan hypocrite why don´t think about your own country that you life in America where they are whaleling.

[GlorificusInferi]

The GoldenEye is fixated upon your house Mr. Bond

[candyman1031]

@Rebound321 The Fin whale is endangered worldwide. The Fin whale is listed on both Appendix I and Appendix II of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals.

When will everyone understand that there are only so many whales left in the oceans.

[Rebound321]

@candyman1031 When will you and others realize it's not endangered

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 the Fin whale IS endangered you lying Iceland sack of sh*t, Almost 750,000 fin whales were poached from the Southern Hemisphere, they never recovered and their numbers are not sustainable. WHALES ARE NOT COMMODITIES, leave them alone before the nuclear nations drop some nukes on you barbarians. You'd wouldn't be thinking about crimes against whales when it's your familiy screaming in a lake of radioactive blood, or would you, with those puke Icelanders , you never know :D

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 There's not a big enough volcano here, anyways, dont have time for trolls

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 that's what Japan said about the tsunami, there isn't a big enough wave to stop us.. then surprise, tsunami killed every inhabitant of their whale poaching town, which is exactly what they deserved. It's also about the right time for one of those big volcanic events. You can run from your crimes, but you there's nowhere on your pathetic island you can hide. Karma always catches up with you.. no matter what you say, your crimes will come full circle to destroy you.

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 The earthquakes on the pacific plate are the biggest in the world, they should have known of the danger. The volcano's in Iceland simply arent big enough to have that kinds of damage, it's just not possible. The biggest volcano's are in the southern outback of Iceland where no one lives. Crimes?, out whaling actually is legal, we are within boundaries.

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 The Halvur company which is basically an Icelandic Al Qaeda organization, is headed by the CEO Loftsson, the Bin Laden of Iceland, who is singlehandedly reponsible for poaching 280 of our world's endangered fin whales. Loftsson is in league with the same government mafia crooks that got away with ripping off Iceland's banks. Loftsson is a criminal and terrorist pure and simple and must be targetted as such. Bin Laden had "boundaries" too, you won't get away with that excuse.

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 denying that a volcano will be your justice..you sound scared now.. are your crimes catching up with you? Iceland was surprised by that eruption which disrupted all Atlantic air traffic.. can't happen you say? Your days are numbered terrorist. You refuse to stop your greed crimes, your crimes will come full circle.. RIP to you and your criminal friends.

[PanzerBlitz43]

11 nations have joined the US in a formal resolution condemning Iceland, and Iceland's crimes are exposed to the world. Soon diplomatic sanctions will turn into trade sanctions and nobody will trade in Iceland's fishing products. Even if the volcano doesn't destroy Iceland, they will be turned into beggars. The question is how far are Iceland criminals willing to take their crimes..right to the point of destroying their own country? If so good riddance.

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 As i said before, our whalings are legal and we are within boundaries.

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Reb well it doesn't matter what crap you spew..criminals say anything. Hitler said what he was doing was "legal within boundaries" and look what happened to him. Halvur is the Al Qaeda of Iceland, and its Bin Laden leader CEO Loftson who singlehandedly murdered 280 endangered fin whales is in league with same mafia crooks who looted Iceland's banks, in fact Halvur is far worse. If you're part of that terrorist operation (as I said before) your days are numbered. No lies you say will excuse you.

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 blablabla, i dont have time for trolls, im going to stand by my words now, i have now stopped answering your nonsense.

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 blablabla It's hilarious to watch an Iceland criminal like you giving up and admitting the whale killing is a serious crime. Run away with your senseless words and nonsense and back to dark freezing Iceland shack to lick your wounds.

[dingoprairie2]

@Rebound321 YAH!!! piss off you stupid old fart {whales 1, Iceland Rebound321 fart :0) }

[Rebound321]

@dingoprairie2 old fart?, im younger than you!. You and PanzerBlitz43 might be the same person, i could be wrong. (Rebound321: 1, dingoprairie2: 0) :)

[dingoprairie2]

@Rebound321 actually.. I'm actually 17 and i'm not panzerblitz, but I totally agree with what he said.. your younger than me? you stupid old fart liar (dingopriarie2, Reboundshit 0) :)

[Rebound321]

@dingoprairie2 Your profile says you are 23, so you're the liar. I'll be 21 in 3 weeks. (Rebound321: 2 ; dingoprairie: 0). Lol so you are 17, i dont expect you to know much about whaling.

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 Iceland is a terrorist state.. there's absolutely no question about that now. The question is is what should the civilized world do about it? I say gear up NATO and bomb Rekjavik and any Iceland whaling towns to ash. Iceland is trying to destroy our world's ecosystems and its future, the worst crime possible.

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 lol, terrorist state? stop trolling man.. . "Iceland is trying to destroy our world's ecosystem and its future, the wost crime possible" i sense your sarcasm. If your going to try and take shots, atleast try to get them right. Iceland is a part of NATO, NATO doesnt attack their own members.

-

Yeah, they must bomb them because of a few whales #sarcasm

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 NATO can be infiltrated and joined by many countries. Doesn't mean those countries are obligated to join in the activities of NATO. For example Turkey is a member of NATO but objected strongly to NATO's bombing of Libya. Now instead of something like bombing Libya which was wrong, NATO can do a good thing, save whale populations and the future of the earth by bombing the crap out of iceland.

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 You're funny, you should do stand up

[PanzerBlitz43]

@Rebound321 And you should kill yourself Iceland idiot. you are worth nothing and are a disease on th earth. Unfortunately it's not "standup" how criminal, corrupt and rotten your country is. Icelanders like you need to be isolated for the criminals they are.

[Rebound321]

@PanzerBlitz43 lol, that's great! trollolol

[CollectiveGeologist]

Fuck off mr. Bond, I fucking love whale meat.. Excuse me now, I'm going to the kitchen to make me some delicious whale steak!

[SuperLeetdude]

the US kills more whales in alaska then iceland

[sicarius100]

oh cry me a river. save the whales save the whales. The little we're hunting of the already large stock isn't enough to endanger it. The Icelandic Marine Research Institute advises on the quotas for the season which are usually rather conservative, also the fin whale quota is rarely fulfilled anyways. it's not like we go out there and kill everything indiscriminately. Unlike the EU we have been getting better at managing the quotas so the fish stocks don't crash like has happened in the EU.

[sso937]

pigs, can play computer games, should´nt everyone stop eating bacon?

we kill tons more of pigs than whales and they are at least as smart as the whales we hunt.

[MrKorton]

Get your facts straight. Fin whales aren´t endangered in the N-Atlantic you halfwit, they´re only threatened around Antarctica (you can´t just take that local fact and make that a global fact). The fin whale population around Iceland is estimated being as big as the time before whaling started around the country.

[PaulFatson]

GO GO WHALING!!!!!

[MasterJediV]

There is no point this is just useless and horrific!! There is no justification for this!

[icepippz]

@MasterJediV wtf useless and horrific?! You apparently have no idea how delicious whale meat is ._.

[Halldor1994]

Whale steaks are awesome.

[Hemulen40]

Iceland´s sinking financially & MORALLY !

[IceGuyProd]

@Hemulen40 Yes. How evil of us to kill animals instead of humans like the US, Uk and many other nations.

[SealScotland]

Many thanks to Pierce Brosnan, NRDC and all involved in making this video.

[tomitstube]

and when they're all gone, how good is whale meat?

they're on the endangered species list for a reason. it's isn't anti-business, it's protecting a precious resource that can barely sustain itself.

oh well, maybe we can save a few for the zoo's so the whalers from iceland can go see what one looks like.

say hi to future generations.

[hoticecup]

In one year, the USA hunt 50 Bowhead whales (in Alaska) from a group of 10.500; that's 0,4% of that specie. For an example, Iceland hunt 39 fin whales in a year from a group of 103.000; that's 0,03%... while a fin whale is aprox 14 tons, the bowhead is 80, that's 4 times more. In the end, Iceland hunts 540 tons yearly while USA hunt 4.000 tons.. that's seven-times more. i'm not saying it is or isn't ok to hunt them and i don't know how it is in Norway or Japan, but fight you own demons first

[tomitstube]

@hoticecup ~ the fin whale is an endangered species. the iwc has issued a moratorium on hunting these animals. obviously if an animal is on an endangered species list it has sustainability issues, i wouldn't take this issue up with the nrdc, or point a finger at the u.s., the only bow hunting in alaska is by indigenous peoples, and the bow whales numbers are increasing since a 1966 ban on commercial hunting.

they both should be protected. this is not a state v. state issue.

[hoticecup]

@tomitstube well the numbers don't lie and i'm not taking any sides, but the argument of the indigenous people are only hunting the bow they are still hunting the species that is much less in numbers even if it's icreasing in numbers, the hunt of fins is carried out by a very good scientific overview of the species and each catch is studied for scientific purpose as well as for consuming so the animal won't go to waste.

[tomitstube]

@hoticecup ~ except that "scientific overview" you speak of says the fin is endangered. a study by the international whaling commission led to a world wide ban on fin hunting. the only countries to defy this ban are iceland and japan, and japan only hunted one in the last couple of years. aboriginal greenlanders are allowed, but their impact is negligible.

i'm not against iceland or icelanders, i'm just going by an international concern about fin sustainability. what is your source?

[FidNorbert]

so.. they eat them or what

[kakake12]

Hey guys, how about Pierce Fagman minds his own goddamn business? Also, whalemeat is delicious.

And just fyi, we've stopped whaling for now because we have so much whale meat in freezers that we're still trying to get rid of. So stop your goddamn whining, we only kill minke whales which are the dumbest whales in the world.

[Nerayani]

This is gross, honestly the evils man inflicts on other species, let alone man. It's a bore I know but please help if you care. Boycott Icelandic products; they are wilfully breaking International law anyway.

[nakamichi680zx]

Send this video to everyone you know and get this going viral!

[simca15]

i signed the petition to save the beautiful whales from being killed. how can anyone even do that?

[BulgarianInCanada]

@simca15 i dont know but they do.! they gotta stop this!!
