As you know, it’s jihad — another day.

Praying for the jihadists to come to their senses and discover hatred and evil destroy everything in their path, including them and the people who love them.

Cruise ship with 1,700 passengers collides with cargo ship

A Bahamian-flagged Norwegian cruise ship on Monday collided with a cargo vessel off Uruguay, but authorities said the 1,700 passengers of the ship were not harmed.

The Uruguayan navy said the cruise ship sustained "not serious" damage above its waterline but will remain in harbor as authorities temporarily closed the Montevideo port in the Uruguay capital to transfer passengers to safety.

Somali pirates leave cargo ship

Somali pirates, who seized a Japanese-owned chemical tanker in October and were demanding ransom, have left the vessel without hurting any of its crew, a US military spokesperson said on Wednesday.

The Panama-registered Golden Nori was carrying benzene from Singapore to Israel when it was hijacked on October 28, just off Somalia, one of the world's most dangerous shipping lanes.

US and German navy ships had cornered the vessel, opening fire and destroying speedboats the hijacked tanker had in tow, earlier this month.
