Japan, Iceland, & Norway Act Like Bush Administration

Japan may leave whaling body
Greenland seeks to hunt humpback whales

“Japan has abided by the moratorium on commercial whaling but uses a loophole that allows scientific whaling.
Japan's fleets brought back 850 minke whales from Antarctic waters last season and 10 fin whales, and it plans to start hunting humpbacks.
Iceland also conducts scientific whaling. Norway, the only nation to defy the international ban, has set its hunters a quota this year of 1,052 minke whales, a small species whose meat is eaten as steaks.
”
The Bush Administration addressed this threat to the diversity of life and the cruelty to mammals with intellects, emotions, and family bonds similar to our own, by saying that allowing this slaughter could do serious damage to United States beef, pork, and poultry exports.
