Piers Ackerman shills for the Japanese Ministry for Foreign Affairs, remains silent on whether whale meat gives one a bigger wang.

IF the idiots from Greenpeace stopped using whaling as a major fundraising vehicle there is a very good chance the Japanese would stop harpooning the dumb beasts.

In other news just received:
  • If the girls in south west Sydney stopped using sexy clothes as major flirting vehicle there is a very good chance the rapists would stop attacking them.
  • If the Iraqis would stop trying to join the police force as a law and order raising vehicle there is a very good chance the terrorists would stop blowing up police stations.
  • If the stalinists from the union movement stopped using the IR legislation as a major fundraising vehicle there is a very good chance employers would stop sacking the dumb workers.
  • If the teenagers would stop using pop bands as major entertainment vehicles there is a very good chance the record labels would stop signing dumb, vacant singers.

Oh yes, you are right, that last one is farcical.

On the other hand, at least the Japanese Ministry for Foreign Affairs is getting good value for their money.

    Who funds Akerman\'s pro-Japan propaganda?: According to the same article: \"Piers Akerman is taking part in an Australia-Japan Exchange as a guest of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs.\"

    Well at least we are told precisely who is funding his pro-Japan propaganda pieces :)

    Pfaff: And how wonderfully ironic, after all this time, that Greenpeace of all people are apparently responsible for Japan\'s long-held prediliction for killing whales.

    How he remains published in the mainstream media is beyond me. Of course, that is probably more a comment on the publishing standards and the broad ideological bent of the Murdoch press.
