Moz's Anti-Canada Statement

This was posted on True-To-You:

I am also pleased to be asked to join the bill at the V Festival at the Thunderbird Stadium in Vancouver, and also at Fort Calgary in Calgary.

However, as we all know, the psychologically and constitutionally sickening Canadian seal-kill has started and is once again in full-cry. The horror of the Canadian seal-kill is untranslatable, and although I fully realize that highly concentrated evil exists in other countries - Japan's dolphin slaughter, Iceland's newly-revived whaling, the cat-skinning trade in Switzerland, and China with just about every injustice imaginable - there is something especially menacing about Canada's seal-kill.

Loyola Sullivan (Canada's Ambassador for Fisheries Conservation) is a man of glacial coldness who claims that the seal-kill is "humane" - a view he might alter if his own skull were cracked open with a spiked axe.
The fact that the seal-kill provides a livelihood for fishermen is an insultingly dim excuse for it to take place - after all, the German gas chambers of World War 2 also provided work for someone.

The seal-kill takes place to satisfy greed for fur-pelts, and this Canadian government is happy to drag the global image of its own country down, and make it a place that people such as I couldn't bear to visit.

Now, I am a bit confused here. Moz is willing to consider playing Iran, where homosexuals are murdered, "thieves" get their limbs chopped off without benefit of trial, and journalists and activists are routinely jailed for years (decades) without explanation. Even if playing Iran was a rumor, there has been no statement to discount it. So, Moz is willing to play Iran and refuses to play Canada where they permit seal killing?! I find an incredible hypocrisy here.

Am I the only one?

Well, if he really is considering playing Iran, it's pretty hypocryte (do you spell it that way?) indeed. But sometimes I'm thinking that moz loves animals even more than human.

Glad there's no big animal-killings in the Netherlands.

I don't see the hypocrisy and I would assume neither does Morrissey.

Sometimes I love animals more than humans too! Unconditional love is always a good character trait.
