"It's very difficult to define what is humane,"
Ha!
If you're a pervert, it's very difficult to define what is sex.
If you're the despotic leader of a failing imperialist nation it's difficult to define what is torture.
And, yes, if you make your living clubbing babies to death, it's very difficult to define what is humane.

I have eaten baby seal both skinned and unskinned. It tastes like chicken. This whole commotion is to deflect attention away from the real criminals, the Americans. I hope the EU actions target the real culprits.
