The civilized world is tiring of pirates...

argh...sucks to be a pirate now days....

...."South Korean special forces stormed a hijacked freighter in the Arabian Sea on Friday, rescuing all 21 crew members and killing eight assailants in a rare and bold raid on Somali pirates, South Korea said."

yeah right. while at the same time, the "civilized" world keeps spending millions to lure itself into the illusion of pirate movies.

Maybe Civilization is just another illusionary concept alltogether

I still think we should have the Marines deal with this, its why they were established.

Lets storm the beach's and shoot up their ports, burn them, and kill them where they sleep!

It must be delightful to live in a world in one's mind where the solution to pretty much everything is to send in the Marines, blow things up and kill anyone in the vicinity without reprecussion.

Yeah it works pretty good, its how it was done 200 years ago. Its called defending international commerce.

Somalis already hate the west, killing a bunch more won't change much.

I don't play computer games. If you have a problem with me spit it out, I don't like this snipping crap.

If not than lay off, and/or put me on your ignore list; I'm growing tired of it.
