Just like in the old days.

Piracy is one form of Low Intensity Conflict you can actually kill your way out of. And we are damned good at killing people, so why not?

I miss carpet bombing...

You guys are all wrong.

What we need to so is have another USA For Africa "We Are The World" album and tour combined with efforts from your local church to "feed the needy" so we can pay to feed them.

That way when there is theoretically enough food, they can have even more children and thus overpopulate again (as they have already done) and those saved children can grow up to murder and rape American aid workers in the region and conduct pirate raids against an ships they can reach.

You really want to solve the problem? Stop sending them ANYTHING. If we don't help them and we stop going there to try and help, Africa will largely solve the problem for us. And this includes tourism that goes through the area, stop doing it. Then we need only provide adequate security to shipping that must go through the area.

I don't agree. I believe in humanitarian aid.

But I also believe in killing bad people. The right mix of aid and bullets in brains is what is needed.

I am sure the Iranian Navy will solve the problem since they claim they arent going through the canal to harrass Israel but instead are headed to interdict pirates.

Oh shit, how funny would it be if the pirates got lucky and nailed an Iranian ship? :lol:

Of course they would probably blow the little bastards out of the water if they came within 2 miles of them so what am I thinking?

Agreed...However, there's the little matter of the pirates holding 600+ hostages.

It's just like Laura Logan bopping her blond head around in the middle of a full blown insurrection. What could go wrong?

"WELL THAT SHOULDN'T MATTER!!!"

Reality check: Lot so things shouldn't matter but they do.

You want to yacht around the coast of Africa, fine. Hell it sounds like fun, and I would love to do it too. But bet your ass I'd have a couple of scoped .308's on hand to deal with shit heads.

And we should have thrown all the pirates overboard after shooting them in the leg...who would care but the sharks?

I'll take perhaps some flak for saying this but Variable is dead nuts correct.

If you want to go and pass out your religious doctrine and it's text(Christianity/ Holy Bible in this case) around the world than you better damn well be prepared to face dangerous, deadly, and unpredicatable situations on a moment's notice. They chose to pass Bibles out and in doing so made terrible decisions and overall used a complete lack of good judgment and hindsight that ultimately lead to this very sad conclusion.

This is nothing new in regards to Christian missionary's spreading the good word in a bad land and paying the cost for doing so ultimately. Last one I remember besides the numerous South American missionary kidnappings was the Christian missionary cpl. from the U.S. that were in the Philippines and were abducted just prior to 911 IIrc. One lived...one died.

Boarding a ship - minus the proper invite - being worked by "HOPLOETHOS" is going to end badly for the skinnies. :cool:
