I don't think people can afford to care anymore about whether something is "ok" or not if they don't have anything to eat, and no "ok" way to get out of their situation.

If your family was starving to death, would you just accept it and wait to die? Or would you choose to do something that is definitely both immoral and risky, but might just save your family?

And if you had to pick a target for kidnapping, wouldn't the people who have been dumping nuclear waste(!) on your shores for over a decade be at the very top of your list?
