Re: Why is Switzerland pro-whaling ?

I am not able to figure out why is Switzerland supporting Japan on this-albeit limited whaling. IMHO lets leave these big beautiful creatures alone. There are plenty other fish to eat.
They're not pro whaling - they simply don't want Japan to withdraw from all international treaties and do whatever they want. Switzerland considers controlled whaling on a small-scale level the lesser evil. And while I'm most definitely not pro whaling, I have to agree with that.
