Unfortunately, I'll bet they will be singling out US flagged vessels for some time. Oh well, at least we have a leader with a strong military background
Sorry, rant over.

I will second that. Don't mess with the USA! I bet it will be awhile before any of those jackasses try anything like that again. |

CNN is reporting that the "pirates are vowing revenge". It's great that we have such well trained military - and this operation was executed correctly. Negotiate UNTIL the capatain's life was threatened by gunpoint - then take 'em down. |

Little do those so-called pirates know that they have just given the U.S. reason to seek our own revenge on Somalia for allowing a civilian mob to mutilate and drag our dead soldiers through the streets of Mogandishu 15 years ago. It is about time we settled this score. |

I see no reason to negotiate at all with them, unless you just don't have a clean shot yet and need to buy time until you do.  Walt

The taking of a flagged vessel is an act of war; this most likely will not be the last they hear from US either. Great job SEALS!!! |

Well it didn't take long for these clowns to strike again. They have now seized 2 more vessels! http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/africa/04 ... index.html I would love to see how the "international community" handles this. Hopefully they now follow our steps and take these guys out instead of negotiating with them. |

It is about time we settled this score. Before or after we attest to our own war crimes? When you have nothing to lose, you don't get "persuaded" as easily. The pirates will not stop hijacking ships, so it will really depend on whether or not those ships will take it upon themselves to erradicate the pirates as they attempt to board. It is truly an act of piracy and therefore the pirates have given up their right to anything(imho), but until the the ships being hijacked are willing to fire back, I doubt it will stop. Then again, I guess we could just do as we normally do.... sink all of the ships in those waters, then no more piracy  Justin |

If you really want an education on war crimes and atrocities, google up some of Saddam Hussein's torture videos. These radical muslims have no respect for human life and should all be exterminated. |
