I just watched "The Cove." I think that must have been the most brain twisting, pulse flaring film I have seen in my life. Amazing documentary. I never think documentaries are gonna be that good before I see them, but this one quite surprised me. The stupidity of the cover ups to keep this slaughter going on is beyond me....the fact that they keep it hidden so well and brain wash everyone to thinking everything is okay with the dolphins, is just disgusting, considering Taiji had a bunch of dolphin decorations embellishing their town. It's a whole set up, you really have to watch it, as it's quite amazing how many factors there are, how many people are being bought in to side with japanese, how many people are being duped and lied to, how many people at the top are creating these lies because not even they know what is really going on, how then these whales are being blamed for causing all these problems to begin with. And that's only one part of it, as just as well, high levels of mercury are found higher up the food chain and in these dolphins and here the government was trying to put dolphin meat in the school lunches. It's insane and I think what makes it even more amazing is that the guy who started it all, who trained dolphins and who was the one who started to get people in touch with dolphins so that they wanted to see them perform for them in captivity, now devoted his life to setting them free and stopping this massacre. Blew my mind.
