yup too true. now we have 2 dead somalis and a french widow and some orphans.
the problem is somalia...not pirates.... pirates are just a symptom.
Why didn't the previous administration bomb Somalia back to the stone age.... ...oh wait...they are in the stone age.
Hmmm....I guess occupation like Iraq and Afghanistan is the only option. Lets go....Oh wait...our last several budgets didn't truly account for those....
what do you mean we are out of money?
shit....
Time for a coalition....what, no one wants to join?
now we have 2 dead somalis and a french widow and some orphans.
That's *three* dead Somalis....and as for the widows and orphans, I just don't care. I have a finite capacity for caring, and it doesn't include the next of kin of dead Somali pirates.
the problem is somalia...not pirates....pirates are just a symptom.How could Somalia be the problem...after all, Clinton and the hugely effective United Nations straigtened them right out in 1993, and they've hardly been heard from since then

Wow. Just wow. The amount of inaccurate and misleading info you've posted here is impressive.
Iraq not working? Talk to Petraeus and Ordiero and the thousands of voters who just participated in local elections. Read Michael Yon and Michael Totten, two people who are actually there to find out how well Iraq is working.
Iraq was the only country in the Middle East who wasn't pursuing a nuclear programYou seriously belive this? Saddam was doing everything he could to maintain the nuke capacity he had and was ready to actively restart it once the sanctions came down. A likely prospect before 9/11. And despite what the New York Times tells you, Saddam's gov. did try to buy uranium from Nigeria, they were just turned down flat. This is what Joe Wilson reported to the CIA and Senate intelligence committee. It's just not what he wrote in an NYT Op Ed

Absolutely. The outcome had everything to do with the Navy and almost nothing to do with the president. I don't believe for a moment that he's got the political will to do what must be done to solve the problem.
One pirate arrested when he came aboard the Navy ship to negotiate, three pirate's heads simultaneously blown off with .50 caliber sniper rifles by SEALs, one rescued merchant marine captain. Not a bad resolution, but in my version, pirate #4 would already be swinging in the breeze from the yardarm of the USS Bainbridge...
Giggling uncontrollably!!! I have almost completely been ignoring the news, since all they seem to do is try to fan the flames of fear which are already out of control. I'm already crazy.
