Beauty mate,at last the decision is made it took a long time but the wait is worth it in the end
This quote from the Japanese defence of whaling submission is in my opinion,shows what a sham their case is.

Japan had argued it has complied with the moratorium despite its 2,000-year tradition of whale hunting, leaving coastal communities in "anguish" because they can no longer practice their ancestral traditions

The Antarctic whaling is done over 3000kms from Japan.
"Coastal communities"
It will be interesting to see if Japan leaves the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling treaty, which it is at liberty to do so,and so can continue to do whaling.
Cheers
