This is the only thing pirates understand.

Well, that oughtta boost their sales right away.
“Sail with us, safe with the knowledge that Israeli security is on the job!”
And as a bonus, you’ll probably not see any Muslim or Arab on board!

Life just gets better with aggressive defense, just like in any sport.

Stunned by the resistance, the pirates made a hasty retreat back to shore. It was one of the first pirate attacks in which a nonmilitary ship fought back.
You mean shooting back works better than bending over and grabbing your ankles? Who would ever have guessed that?

Now, that’s the kind of on-board entertainment I could really enjoy. Ta heck with shooting clay pigeons off the fan-tail - plinking pirates in a dinghy sounds like way more fun!

Cool, the Italians may have decided that they will promote a stable government, economy and the rule of law.
Just waiting to see who at the UN is offended!

Obama is horrified. Israelis shooting at Pirate Moose Limbs. Indignation and apology forthcoming.
To: nickcarraway
Just having GUNS on the vessel tilted the odds greatly against the pirates. Having Israelis was, comparatively, only the icing on the cake.
It still has to burn those pirates that their worst enemies played a part in thwarting them.

I just hope they were not “firing one over the bow”.
But shooting to “stop their action”....preferably permanently.

CNN had the article except they omitted one thing. The Israeli security detail.

That’s the way I’d play it - kill ‘em or sink ‘em - or both!!

Remember when American men used to do things this way?
What will it take for American men to get enough of the likes of Barney Frank, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and girlie boy Obama, etc, etc...ruining our country, what will it take for them to stand up, get rid of these creeps and act like men?

Somalis might think they look like Arabs, but they don't ~ 'cause they aren't.
What we have is a new weapon ~ the Jewish Boat Guard (JBG). They can protect any boat on the ocean except one owned or operated by a Moslem, or crewed by Moslems.
The Somalis will be reduced to attacking only Moslem boats.

How long until outrage comes from the UN Commission for the seas about how private ships are arming themselves, thus violating some enviromental ruling. After all, where’s the offset for all that lead the Israeli’s pumped into the waters, and how dare they keep firearms aboard a ship - didn’t they outlaw that already?
Not to mention outrage from within Italy over having armed guards on a flagged ship... Ahh, yes, the liberals will focus entirely on the fact that they resisted, rather than succumb like meek sheep to the Muslim attackers.

"The Somalis will be reduced to attacking only Moslem boats." Works for me...
