How are they "illegally killing whales"? They are mandated to a number of whales they can take. This coming from an international committee that is responsible for whaling. True, they say they are doing it for research, but we know it's not. But with that said, they NEVER harvest more than their quota.
Sound illegal to me...NOT.
Sinking ships because you don't agree with the policy of an internation whaling committee, wrong. Any way you look at it.
Don't get me wrong. I don't agree with Japan's harvest of any whales, but as long as the committee approves of their actions, what can you do? Try to change the voting for next year. If that doesn't work, don't inact your own justice. That's illegal in almost every country.
