They shot the defensless animal full of harpoons and then they kill it.
edit:
Actually the shooting the animals typically kills them in one shot. Whales are not completely defenseless either, they can do considerable damage to medium sized boats by surfacing and landing on the vessel. It is no more cruel than how cows are slaughtered. Usually it's a near instantaneous kill, hardly ever requiring more than a single blow.
