In my opinion, I think two wrongs make no right. First, Japan is an island surrounded by seas, and it seems more likely for them to hunt marine life for living. However, over-hunting would be too cruel for animals, and I think the Japanese government is supposed to limit the numbers of taking WHALES for research. For example, they can distribute four to five whales for the researchers per year so that the researchers can't over-hunt the whales.
Second, the environmentalists should be permitted by some legal organizations, and they can propagate the meaning of why they protest against Japanese to do so, and advocate reforming the system. Not just go ahead themselves, but to take some legitimate methods.
Hunting whales is concerned the whole marine system, I think. So the environmentalists should specify the details and help people understand how serious it is. And so should the Japanese goveronment do something to improve this situation. They can cooperate instead of fighting.

"Two wrongs don't make a right" is an excellent point. On the otherhand, I think the activists in the show would claim they aren't doing anything wrong, so the saying doesn't apply to them. They would (and do) say what they do is like when the police stop a man from attacking someone on the street. i worry that if we accept this it opens up an ethically grey area.
