A coastal whaling base in Miyagi Prefecture of Japan has been destroyed by the powerful tsunami triggered by 3/11/11's massive earthquake, which washed away their whale-processing facility. In Ishinomaki of Ayukawa on southern Oshika, the tsunami of 10 meters high traveled 600 meters inland. They prospered as a whaling base since opening there in 1906. Two of their vessels were scheduled to participate in Japan's research whaling in April. search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20110318a7.html
Japanese thinking: Issei Sagawa (born June 11, 1949) is a Japanese man who in 1981 murdered and cannibalized a Dutch woman named Renée Hartevelt. After his release, he became a minor celebrity in Japan and made a living through their public's interest in his crime. Sagawa described himself as a "weak, ugly, and small man" and claims that he wanted to "absorb her energy". His wealthy father provided a top lawyer for him, but he was released after only two years and without a trial. wikipedia. org
The ICR goons were feeding whale to school children! They unload the meat found to have too much mercury in it as "school lunches", since they couldn't sell those batches as the high priced "delicacy". Captain Watson and Toru Suzuki are heroes that children (even Japanese ones) should look up to.
The whalers are pretending it's scientific purposes so they can continue to break a law that's been in place since 1986. Japan is not a poor country anymore! They needn't hunt whales! Japan is always operating behind some kind of deception, just like Pearl Harbour. Before 1986 they killed 2000 whales yearly. "Commercial" whaling was banned and made illegal in 1986. Today, the Japs kill 900+ per year for "scientific purposes". Before 1986, the Japs killed 200 per year for scientific purposes.
@info145 haha you actually compared it to pearl harbor!
im neighbors to Norway which is also known for its whale hunt and there is no way near the outcry about that. But i really couldnt give to cents about this issue, dunno what im even doing here.

"Japan's Fisheries Agency announced on 4/12/2010 that the whaling fleet had caught about half of the 985 whales it had hoped to catch during the 2009/2010 whaling season. As a result of obstruction by Sea Shepherd protest operations, the whalers harvested 506 southern Minke whales and one Fin whale." Noted: Wikipedia. org They TRIED to fill that quota and in doing so, they spent the costs of fuel, salaries for their men, food & supplies, whatever licenses, and bribes. But fell WAY short. HA!

I'm serious about it, I would prefer to deal with it diplomatically, but if we can't get there, that's the alternative course", Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.

I the government is willing to throw him in jail to silence him then he is on the right track. Read the lives of the saints and heroes that changed our world and you will see a trend of fear based oppression towards them.Teachers will teach or descendants the history of this era thousands of years from now, and in between the hidden texting and gossiping, they will learn that at least not all of the Japanese were ignorant. Keep up the good work Toru.
hunts called "grindadráp" in Faroese.whales+ dolphins are surround with a wide semicircle of boats and driven slowly into a bay or to the bottom of a fjord. They are then driven fully ashore or close enough to the shore that they can be secured and killed from land. The whales and dolphins that are not beached were stabbed in the blubber with a sharp hook, called a gaff. Once ashore whales+ dolphins are killed, by cutting the dorsal area through to the spinal cord !
Toro Suzuki is a fine example of the enlightened two third majority of the Japanese public that's against whaling. It's such a shame that the minority who support whale slaughter bring international shame and condemnation of Japan. The Japanese government are in bed with the Yakusa controlled whaling fleets.
@terrapyn99 "Toru" not "Toro" In fact, Toro means fatty tuna. Having said that, he ate the whale meat he stole. 90% of the Japanese population in fact supports whaling (Yahoo poll). All of the Japanese people hate SSCS. YakuZa, not 'Yakusa.'
'Yakusa' is a misspelling you inherit from Paul Watson, who you are in bed with.
Is he really a Japanese? I mean it's a freedom of individual to agree with anti-whaling or not. But, what's the merit to Japan nation by quitting whaling? and What's the merit to Australia nation by banning Japan to do whaling. Green peace is really fishy. i'm not a nationalist but, this issue is related to politics and diplomacy so that I'm curious.
>bundangslimbear, are you really that retarded........your comments have absolutely zero to do with this video..........it's about whaling.......not frikken history, aboriginals or anything else, it's about whaling........if you wanna talk about aboriginals go find a video about them.........your post is nothing more than spam and i hope everyone flags your garbage as spam
Australian hypocritical politicans and the public have slandered and denigrated the Japanese for their whaling, yet in our own country they condone the extermination of the endangered "DINGO".
Australia holds the world record for mammal extinctions!!
DINGOES face higher extinction risk than humpback WHALES, but Australians kill endangered DINGOES as PESTS.
>bundangslimbear........you're talking racist shit......dingoes are in our own country, we don't hunt them in international territory or other people's territory and we can see how many there are.........stop telling lies about scientific research........stop whaling.......and if you must kill whales do it in your own oceans only!
>bundangslimbear.......you're an even bigger idiot than i thought.........you don't know anything about kangaroos .......it's absolutely nothing like whaling..........there are nearly 60 million kangaroos in australia, twice as many as us, you fool.......and we don't go overseas to hunt them or tell lies about scientific research..........yes there are strict international regulations concerning whaling and japanese whalers completely ignore them time and time again........ stop lying!!!
>bundangslimbear.......more rubbish and irrelevant to the video........spam....spam....spam.........hahahahaha, per capita that doesn't mean anything there's only 22million of us.........there are 130 million japanese and even if each one of you pumps 5 times less pollution into the atmosphere than us, you would still be worse than us. lol
>bundangslimbear......wtf has that got to do with whaling, just more fucken spam.........if you wanna talk about history.......let's talk about the appalling gratuitous bestiality and inhuman behaviour by the japanese during ww2........your treatment of pows, even women and children and even your own people was the worst the world had seen, disgusting, vile, inhumane, appalling japanese behaviour and it took a nuke to stop your insanity.
Japan needs more brave people like him.the only way the Japanese will stop whaling is from pressure from ther own people.I wonder how many Japanese people thing the whale is a fish? we New Zealanders were smart enought to stop whaling back in 1964,like 98% of the worlds civilised countries did.
Surely if japanese children could see more videos of these beautiful intelligent mammals,the next generation would stop the slaughter. or does Japanese censorship forbid it?
I think some indigenous Arctic circle people in Russia are allowed to hunt cetaceans and seals because it is their main source of nutrition. I assume the Japanese hold whaling as part of their culture too. However what is worrying is that they, unlike the primordial cultures of Siberia took it to industrial levels.
@judoisoww Right. This video features Suzuki, who is not the main culprit. It is actually Sato guy that appears on the left at 1:30 ( and 1:50) who is confessing his crime in the other video. Sato says "We (plural) ate the meat as a part of investigation" So I assume that Suzuki also ate the stolen meat.
i don't mind people eating whale or whatever they want. i do disagree doing whale hunting if the species are declining. Killing,Eating is life but to kill for money distort the natural order. SO ... kill those swindlers!
He said in his press conference that he ATE the whale meat after seizing it as evidence. He said it was necessary for his investigation. I don't think he wants to stay in Australia because he loves whale meat.
Australia should give him political assylum for this. This is political oppression. If he is a prisoner of conscience, then AI and the Greens and Greenpeace should support him if he wants political assylum. Unless he prefers a Japanese prison...
theres hundreds of people around the world that whale privatly i hunt dolphins and bring home about 4 good sized fish and befor you bitch its 100% legel because iam in internationl waters and if some of these greenpeace fags came near my vessel and i said to stop i would not feel sorry to open fire on them
