SAMPLE LETTER : FROM: Your name, Your Address, City, State, Zip U.S. Constituents. SUBJECT: PLEASE stop the NOAA/NMFS(National Marine Fishery Service) approval of Makah Whaling in the United States. Dear Mr. President, The U.S. government again allows the Makah tribe to kill resident whales as well as migrating whales. (Please see Reference # 1, # 2 ). This position is no different from falling the trap of Japanese whaling industry's great efforts to weaken U.S. anti-whaling position in the world. While Japan is greatly pushing and bribing many of the Caribbean island countries to " vote " in Japan's favor to legalize the world commercial whaling in the next IWC meeting (July 23rd) and bribes many tribes including Makah tribe in the U.S.to kill whales in the attempt to weaken US anti-whaling position, I , as a concerned Constituent, would like to make the following urgent requests to you to protect whales before it's too late: 1: PLEASE stop the NOAA/NMFS(National Marine Fishery Service) approval of Makah Whaling in the United States. 2: Please replace all of the NOAA/NMFS high level officials which were influenced by the former Vice President Al Gore's highly possible conspiracy and corruption with the Norwegian and Japanese whaling industries. (Al Gore had " brokered " hundreds of millions dollars missile deal with Norway and gave " OK " for Norway and many tribes to kill massive number of whales ever since. ) 3: Please OPPOSE any RMS (Revised Management Scheme) in the Next IWC meeting on July 23,2001 in London. The RMS is a scheme to legalize the world Commercial Whaling. Thanks for your urgent help to save the whales plight. Sincerely, Your Name, Your Address, City, State, Zip, Constituents.

RES. 121, the WHALING RESOLUTION. Dear Senator , While Japanese is greatly pushing to legalize the world commercial whaling in the next IWC meeting (July 23rd) and bribing many of the Caribbean Island countries and tribal including Makah tribe in the U.S., to kill whales in the great attempt to weaken US anti-whaling position in the world, I , as concerned constituent , would like to make the following urgent requests to you to protect whales before it's too late: PLEASE 1: Co-Sponsor S. Con. Res. 121, the Whaling Resolution, introduced by Senator John Kerry . 2: Please stop the NOAA/NMFS(National Marine Fishery Service) approval of Makah Whaling in the United States. The U.S. government again allows the Makah tribe to kill resident whales as well as migrating whales. Representatives William Delahunt (D-MA), Wayne Gilchest (R-MD), George Miller (D-CA) and Chris Smith (R-NJ) have introduced H Con Res 180, the Whaling Resolution, into the House of Representatives. H Con Res 180 expresses " the sense of the Congress that the United States should reaffirm its opposition to any commercial and lethal scientific whaling and take significant and demonstrable actions, including at the International Whaling Commission and meetings of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, to provide protection for and conservation of the world's whale populations and to prevent trade in whale meat. " A Senate version of the Whaling Resolution, S Con Res 121, has also been introduced in the Senate by Senator John Kerry (D-MA). The time is very urgent. The US government allows Makah killing whales in the U.S. has become one of the Japanese strong weapons to fulfill its conspiracy to legalize the world Commercial Whaling. (see Reference # 1, # 2). PLEASE CO-SPONSOR the S. Con. Res. 121, the Whaling Resolution. PLEASE STOP NOAA/NMFS to allow Makah whaling in the U.S. now. Thank you.

SAMPLE LETTER : (you may write your own letter , Thanks.) SUBJECT : PLEASE STOP JAPANESE SADISTIC WHALING. Dear WTO, The Japanese Government is greatly promoting the killing of the world's largest sentient animals on earth--- killing WHALES and Commercialize it. I'm strongly urging you : 1: Please stop Japanese Government 's greed and sadistic cruelty to kill whales in the massive number each year for its commercial profits despite the international continuous protests and plea . 2: Please stop Japanese Government " Buying " , " Bribing " and " Threatening " other small island countries to bring them to IWC(Interantional Whaling Commission) to vote in Japanese favor to legalize the World Commercial Whaling attempt in the IWC meeting. Despite a worldwide ban on commercial whaling, Japan and Norway both are killing 1000 whales a year. More than 20,000 whales have been killed since the world agreed to stop whaling in 1986. Japan is leading the world to resume the Commercial Whaling and it kills massive number of whales under disguise of the " scientific whaling " which is one of the IWC loopholes. Norway simply ignores the moratorium imposed by International Whaling Commission (IWC) in 1986. Both countries are currently greatly killing whales, Japan in the northwest Pacific Ocean and Norway in the northern Atlantic. Note: IWC has no " policing power " to control and supervise its member nations killing whales. (see Reference # 1 ) Japan has been showing that they will go to extreme lengths and use dubious methods in pursuit of their deadly goal. Japan uses dirty bribing and threatening tactics to push other small island countries to vote in Japan's favor in next IWC meeting(July 23, 2001) towards resumption of the World Commercial Whaling goal thru so called " Revised Manangement Scheme " ( " RMS " ). (see Reference # 8 ) Japanese whaling industry's " bribing " network had far reaching influences. Japan had spent more than 70 million dollars in Caribbean Island countries in the attempt to bring them to IWC to vote in Japanese favor to legalize the World Commercial whaling . They now are bribing and buying the countries in Africa too! Japan also bribe the tribes to kill whales too. (see Reference # 3 ). Japan is also the world biggest killer on Dolphins. Each year from October to end of April is Japanese seven months long killing dolphin season every year. Japan is steadily hunting its coastal cetacean populations to extinction. By 1995, a single species -- Dall's porpoise -- was being taken at a rate of 17,000 per year. Hundreds of boats are licensed to kill, and they have severely depleted, in sequence, populations of striped dolphins, pilot whales, beaked whales, and Dall's porpoise.(see Reference # 6, # 7 ) Japanese Government has been historically cruel to all living beings. Its barbaric sadistic whaling behavior has reminded us the Japanese invasion of the World War II only 60 some years ago. Japanese soldiers were raping, killing in many of the Asian countries. For example: Japan killed more than " 32 millions " of Chinese " Civilians " from 1931 till 1946 with the most unimaginable cruel ways to kill. It was the weak Kaomingdon in power then. (Note: Unlike Germany, Japan denied its world biggest Atrocity to millions of " civilians " .). Please click following 6 pages of documentary photos : http://www.cnd.org/njmassacre/page1.html (Please see reference # 9) Now, again, the Japanese government is committing another kind of big Atrocity on the world fragile whales despite the international outcry and plea! The fate of the whales in the world is in the greatest danger now. Without the world cooperation, Japan will not only kill massive number of the whales but also push its insanity to other countries to kill all of the whales in the world. As a concerned world citizen, I'm urging you to use all of your power to save whales before it is too late : Please stop Japanese Government 's killing whales and dolphins. Please stop Japanese Government " Buying " , " Bribing " other small island countries to bring them to IWC to vote in Japanese favor to legalize the World Commercial Whaling in the IWC meetings. The next meeting starts on July 23, 2001. We would be very grateful to you for your kindness, compassion and urgent help for the whales plight in the world.
