Shame, Peter, Shame.
What is this? Why now, when you have the power to, won't you protect our livestock? Because that's what our whales are, right? Any animal that resides in our territory is our livestock. We wouldn't stand for a bunch of Japanese businessmen coming over here to take off a shipload of our best merinos for 'studying'. Nor do we stand for illegal fishermen coming into our waters to take our fish stock. And there is always an outrage when we hear of someone trying to export a bunch of snake eggs, or baby cockatoos. Would you allow a foreigner to go into a national park and club a heap of koalas to death?
So why should we allow one of our greatest tourism drawcards to be killed off willy nilly, with only the promise of scientific study? Seriously, what kind of useful study can be done on a dead whale that can't be done with a small sample of DNA from a live specimen? Errr..... does whale meat taste more like fish or chicken?
Come on Peter, we all know that the Japanese are treating us like the idiots that we (apparently) are. We should be sending a NAVY ship down to keep an eye on them, with the clear message that our whales are valuable stock, and that the theft and/or death of said stock will not be tollerated.
Have some balls.

Do We Want This?
Here is a place where we
can discuss the current
nuclear power debate
in Australia.
A place to voice our
concerns and discuss
alternative sources.
The content of this blog
will periodically be sent
to our leaders in Canberra.
Please feel free to make
comment on the issues
raised for discussion here.
They need to know
just how we feel.
