Defending a dirty cause is such disgusting , killing the whales is killing the planet this is a crime , i don't see any spirit of olympiads in Japan

The article states that it's just minke whales and though I haven't got time to do thorough research (paper due for tuesday) it seems like it's the common and arctic versions where the common is of "least concern" and the arctic is data deficient (though estimates are pretty high).

No doubt that there are whales that are endangered and should be cared for and the ones hunting these should be stopped by pretty much all cost, but it seems like this "scientific" whaling isn't of whales that are endangered (though once again, my head is filled by repatriations of POWs during WWII meaning that I haven't really checked it thoroughly)

 

Good luck with your paper.

Problem is that if you look at it like this, Antarctica is basically the only place where the Olympics can be held, because literally every country in the world had or has questionable stuff going on.

Not everything. Just modern-day slavery in the construction of the venues (and well, most likely some corruption, but that's not really unusual in sports)

The issues with Qatar are directly linked to the World Cup itself. The Japanese whale hunt, while a travesty, are very much ubrelated to the Olympics.

LOL what a joke , have you heard about the suicides of the japaneses workers in the stadium construction ? do you know this Olympic complexe un der construction is not the same they have showed in their folder of bid ? 

It's 200% cheating

That's usually released about a year before the games
