It's OK - wait a year and you can get Iran to do it for you


I have mixed feelings about the dolphin video as most people watching this would also be disgusted watching video from abattoirs or condemn all developing countries who use traditional butchering techiques which are just as unpleasant.

The video in itself is terrible viewing.

WRX - is that your wife officially announcing the alignment of the United States with the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea?

I mean its pretty damn nasty.. but sheesh - you've already nuked them twice!!

352,000 is a bit lousy considering the planet is eligiable and we got 1.7million or something voting against PAYG driving which may or may not happen from just the British Electorate!

But signed anyhow!

It isnt a million miles away from what goes on in any abbatoir but at least they stun animals and then kill them outright straightaway, nothing should have to suffer that regardless of whether it is a pig or a Dolphin, I cannot really condemn the Japanese for eating Dolphin but there should be sanctions until they get their act together, along with the Seal clubbers.

The Japanese have a strange relationship with animals and nature in general. Whilst dogs and cats might be seen as kawaii (cute) virtually anything coming from the sea is seen through different eyes and what we regard as cruelty they wouldn't necessarily see the same way. There's not many countries where a chef would slice open a still moving fish for the rich customers to eat still quivering sashimi. Having said that, I can't see how anyone, Japanese or not, could fail to think that video showed anything other than horrific cruelty. But that footage would never be shown on Japanese TV, too many vested interests, men in suits in smokey rooms doing deals.

Petition signed.

Don't really give a toss about their ideas regarding life from the oceans.The fact that they see nothing wrong with it makes it all the more barbaric and shows the Japanese for what they inherantly are...................Scum! And scum that should be blown out of the water by every country with any sense of morality

what is wrong with some people that they feel the need to massacre animals for fun - Dolphins FFS, clever mamals that do little harm other than eat Tuna to survive.

I am not a vegetarian, but the killing of animals must be done as humanely as possible.

I will never (knowingly) buy anything from countries that treat their animals so badly - in fact, if it's not British I'm not buying it. I don't understand why we need to import/export so much anyway, just for the sake of international relations. I read somewhere that we export the exact same amount of potatoes that we import. Crazy.

We have a local butcher who can tell us the exact origin of everything in his shop, this is the way ahead. BUY BRITISH F**k off Japan

I won't be watching, but have seen their killing of whales for "research" etc... Not nice, but looking closer to home, the Norwegians kill whales....

I will sign it, even though I haven't watched it.
