Well forcing may or may not be accurate. How many of the crew on in a situation where they can refuse such work?

there's always something else to do. nobody absolutely has to poach whales.
The Japanese economy is in the toilet; there is NOT always something else to do. What the Japanese do may be repugnant, but it is lawful; they are not poaching anything.
.... but yet you support the illegal activities that risk killing someone ???nobody is forcing them to kill whales. besides, last i checked there were millions of japanese on the planet. not so whales. and who's to say which life is more valuable? i certainly wouldn't wish for any of the whalers themselves to be hurt. they know the risks they are taking when they head off to kill whales every year. none of this is new.
besides isn't commercial whaling illegal?
good.. at least someone is doing something. what has anyone else done that has actually made any amount of difference in the whale slaughters??
not everyone agrees with this.
besides, last i checked there were millions of japanese on the planet. not so whales.
Not everyone is aware of the facts.
When did you last check the number of whales on the planet?
