>>A pirate spokesman, who wished to remain anonymous, contacted Somalilandpress today said at least ten of his men were executed by the Russian navy after the troopers stormed MV Moscow University. <<
Too bad the Russkies didn’t string the pirates from the yardarms.
Russia (and later USSR) traditionally makes it a point to make it a point that she will not be trifled with. America and the EU OTOH can be messed with as much as possible. The angst after the legal killing of the pirates on the lifeboats a few years back told them all they needed to know: there is no downside in killing Americans or Europeans.

The Russians never released the young men instead they shot them point-blank range then loaded their lifeless bodies back on the boat, he added. Hey, they could have fed them to the sharks. The pirates are lucky they caught them on a good day.

"A pirate spokesman" WTF is that? Here he is :o)
To: BradyLS
Exactly. Next thing you know, every ship will be flying the Russian flag.
Death to Pirates, Somalia, and spokesmen.

A pirate spokesman? I'd encourage every pirate to try his hand at being a very public spokesman. They'd have One turn. Just one.

My guess is, Russian shipping is pretty darn safe in that part of the world now.
Funny thing about fear and common sense.

They knew pirating was a dangerous right?
This should be SOP when dealing with pirate scum.

It's a good bet that the pirates will rethink messing with Russian vessels in the future.
