[A-List] Regarding Paul McCartney's misinformation on CNN: Inuit seek support



First, Sir Paul was knighted and denounced his own song "Give Ireland
back to the Irish", then he started doing commercials for investment
corporations and now he's doing this racist crap against indigenous
hunts (including misleading and inaccurate photos with white coated seal
pups). Much as I'm always going to love the Beatles, Paul, we don't need
you now that you're 64.

INUIT ASK EUROPEANS TO SUPPORT ITS SEAL HUNT AND WAY OF LIFE
Monday, March 6, 2006
Nuuk, Greenland - Inuit in Greenland are alarmed at reports in European
capitals that some governments are contemplating legislation restricting
sealskin imports.

"I appeal to all Europeans and their governments to put all thoughts of any
trade restrictions regarding our way of life on immediate hold," said
Aqqaluk Lynge, President of the Inuit Circumpolar Conference (ICC) in
Greenland. "Our traditional Greenland seal hunt is sustainable. The meat
plays an important part of the healthy Arctic diet and the trade of our
sealskin coats to Europe helps our local village economies enormously".
