+ | Hello there I am following what is happening regarding Paul Watsons crusade against the people of the Faroe Islands a far more easy prey he thinks than the corporate farms producing animals in small cages, animals that have perhaps even never see natural daylight. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In your article: | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[http:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | You claim the following: | ||
+ | |||
+ | "The Faroese send boats out into the ocean to find pilot whales" | ||
+ | |||
+ | I have to point out that this is completely incorrect, there are no Faroese boats patrolling the Faroese shores - " | ||
+ | |||
+ | I am deeply saddned by the lies being spread by Paul Watson and his followers - The " | ||

+ | |||
+ | I hope that the LA Times and it's affiliate channels will refrain from giving this dastardly fein any further place in their webspace or physical paper to spread his falsehoods about the Faroese pilot whaling. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you have a genuine interest point people to an official scientifically backed resource on the matter like http:// | ||
+ | |||
+ | I have lived in the Faroe Islands from 1975 to 2000 so I know what I am talking about. I hope that you in the future will be most diligent with how you represent cases against minorities like the people of the Faroe Islands who are among the people with the most respect for nature that you will find anywhere in the world. | ||
