The whole whale fiasco



So I noticed that the media is today talking about two protestors from the Sea Shepherd being held 'hostage' on a Japanese whaling vessel in the Antarctic. Dont get me wrong, I'm not at all condoning what the Japanese are doing, but I do wonder if 'hostage' is the right word to use here if one deliberately (and illegally) jumps onto another vessel and is then detained? More importantly, I wonder if the protestors are now being forced to eat whale?
