On their return to Japan from the Antarctic last month, crew from the factory ship Nisshin Maru were documented by Greenpeace activists taking away boxes of salted whale meat for selling in apparent violation of the country's "research" permit.

No one beleives the Japanese government's lies, that they only kill whales for scientific reasons.I have written to the Japanese premier,and the Japanese ambassador in the UK.Everyone needs to let them know,that they disapprove,and that they are boycotting Japanese goods..(though i've got so many national boycotts,i'll be buying exclusively from The Faroe Island's ,if i'm not careful).

Good read, but this is sad. Why do humans have to eat EVERYTHING that moves (or doesn't) on this Earth??
