Japan's Whale Hunt - Barbarism At Its Worst.

I'm not sure whether this will be receive in the right spirit but I do hope that you can spare a bit of time and write about the needless slaughter of whales by Japan. Any additional expression of indignation at the barbaric killings by Japan will help in reinforcing the need to put a stop to these senseless killings.

If you find this message offensive, I would like to apologize but I do hope you can empathize with these majestic cetaceans. Best.

    Just a quick note that I'm posting an article about this, and other blogger unite projects on my blog. I won't leave a link to it as I feel that would just be a shameless plug for my blog, but I wish you luck promoting your belief (one I share), and hopefully I can help spread the word a bit...

    I had to comment on this. Originally the hunt of the whale was done more from a perspective of balancing out the eco system. The Whales were in fact depleting the supply of fish in certain waters. Not to mention the fact they were attacking fisherman, who dared to go far out to sea.

    I agree it is a shame that to appease Japanese dignitaries that Japan is now just aimlessly killing not only the whales for meat but the dolphins as well. These creatures are in danger of extinction.

    I do not feel that this is a human rights issue. An environmental issue, perhaps. An animal rights issue, perhaps. But this is not a human rights issue.

    If you need more clarity about the kind of topics for Human Rights day, there is a topic with resources on this group:
