No I would hope they wouldn't. But a nation can't make its decisions based upon a families concerns.
There's no rush on this
Yes there is.
A clear and devastating message must be sent to these animals, that their actions will result in them getting their asses kicked.
End result: they will think long and hard before messing with us again.
Your solution is typical liberal BS that gets more people killed. It's the Carter solution.
And your course is the typical postion of someone perfectly willing to fight to the last drop of someone elses blood. You're awfully quick to kill off the captain, slick.
Yes there is.
As a retired military person, I expected more intelligence from such, but being in the army is different than being in the Merchant Navy!
There is no need for any rush in this particular situation!!
That lifeboat, (if out of fuel) is going nowhere 300 miles out in the Red Sea. The Navy is in full control, and the lifeboat is loaded with plenty of food and water for 50 persons. So it is very wise just being in the waiting mode and monitoring the situation, and hopefully it will be solved "peacefully" when the pirates have run out of any other options!!!
