Quote from TorontoTrader2:
This whole Pirates story does not add up.
Let's look a some facts:
3. The West has satellites that can see and count the hairs on the back of your neck almost, they have submarines that can hear half-way around the world from under the sea. And yet we cannot stop a few amateurs in motorboats and armed with small arms?
If we had any balls we could win this pretty quickly. It may not be the easiest thing in the world because the Somali Coast is rather large (about the same size as the entire East Coast of the United States from Maine to Florida), but it could certainly be done if we were willing to put some skin in the game...but it appears that the messiah is not. (although most polls are starting to show that Americans are becoming really pissed off about being taken for a cuckold by a bunch of starving guys heading out ot sea in rubber dingy's, so he may yet take action, have to see what the numbers say tomorrow and then make a deal with Code Pink to allow it to go through)
