The assets with the hostage situation skill set are in very short supply and needed in other parts of the world reequipping and re-tasking SEAL Team 6 or Delta is not an easy thing to do, the run of the mill SEAL is not trained to pull an operation like this off.

I thought being a SEAL took you above "run of the mill"? Seems like a few SEALS could just pop up out of the water in the middle of the night and overwhelm these guys pretty quick. or just poke a little hole in thier boat say coupkle inches diameter, they will wear themselves out bailing and then be in the water. I bet those Russian guns wont last long submerged in salt. I hope the other idiots decide to bring out all the mother ships. All we need to do is stall them until the rest of the warships arrive then we can do a good ole fashoned siege type blockade until they run there supplies out and beg to be taken prisoner.
