Pirates in Somalia are on the job as usual, and the other day Navy SEALS raided a yacht they had taken. Four Americans were on board and had been captured, and when the SEALS heard gunfire, they gave up negotiating and stormed the ship.
The four whites had been gunned down. Two of them were retired Americans who were sailing around the world delivering Bibles to any port they went to, Bibles in several languages. Looks like the Somalis weren't too receptive to bringing in the sheaves. The couple had been joined in Phuket Thailand by another white couple, 'experienced sailors' that made them feel
confident. They had been warned to stay out of the East African waters, but decided to go ahead 'and put it in God's hands.'
Also, they stayed for awhile with a group of yachts that kept together, hoping that there would be safety in numbers.
Yeah, safety...a flock of sheep will scare off the wolves.
The SEALS killed four pirates, one in 'hand to hand fighting.' Thirteen others had been captured. Apparently, an argument broke out among the pirates.
Somali pirate leaders have been threatening to get tough and start killing more captives and anyone they catch. Looks like they feel pretty cocky.
I listened to Mark Levin rant about this, how we should machine-gun pirates, fight them to the death...you know, I just don't care about the Americans. Sorry to say, but who the hell takes a yacht into those waters? Were these
hymn-singers really stupid?
Reminds me of some naive whites taking a lone wagon through Indian country, the injuns come up and after they rob them, stop kidding around and get down to scalping.
I worry that a lot of whites are so damned hopeless as to do the Bible thing and sail into certain death.
The only good thing was some niggers got whacked, but really, bombing the whole country would do more good.
Anyway, isn't it true that a lot of the piracy is encouraged by insurance companies so they camn jack the rates of the shipping companies? It always seems something obvious like making a buck.
One wonders how long until the Somalis wise up and form their own fleet and come to our coasts. Who the hell would bother to stop them?
