the liars are breaking international treaty law against whaling. they are lying they are only doing it for research. if they weren’ t lying they wouldn’t be breaking intl law. not everyone swallows their blatant lying.

They aren’t actually breaking a treat or a law. They’re breaking an agreement which has no force of law behind it on any level. They’re in an international group, which has no treaties behind it and is basically just a club, and they’re breaking one of the rules of the group.

Sure thing, comrade. Innocent until proven guilty apparently means nothing to you. So be it.

The charter for the International Whaling Commission is to "provide for the proper conservation of whale stocks and thus make possible the orderly development of the whaling industry". Banning whaling is a violation of the purpose of the IWC's founding, and thus negates their authority.
