Global Hawks should be able to get the job done. Take out the boats at anchor and you turn your pirates into landlubbers.

Belgians and Swedes. Maybe a few French (not Legionnaires). Oh yeah, more Russians. Let them figure it out.

How about allowing the shipping companies to hire a private army and take care of it themselves?

I would think that the insurance companies would encourage it.

Isn't there a Russian vessel with SF floating around down there? Wonder where they're getting resupplied.

Airlifts and ships from Djibouti.

The problem with the PMC is the UN banned the use of them, I'm still trying to figure out how we are getting away with the use of PMC's in Iraq the way we are using them.

I have been advicating a blow the $hit out of them policy since the beginning. Maybe a C130 can $hit a MOAB over them.

William Kunstler died almost 14 years ago. Here's his wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Kunstler

He was a great American, IMHO.

Lawyers from the organization he co-founded in 1966, the Center for Constitutional Rights, represent plaintiffs in that lawsuit, that's how his name made it into that report.

I can see a need for Blackwater type outfits but those guys have pulled some real $h!t in Iraq.

Almost as funny as the Dubber's approach: treating Muslims as though they are second class citizens in spite of his PR attempts to claim otherwise.
