Thanks....

I like him:

Prior to joining CSIS in 1988, Iklé was undersecretary of defense for policy during the first and second Reagan administrations.

Please refrain from using the term ‘pirates’, per Homeland Security directive the correct description of these Somali entrepreneurs/freedom fighters/eco warriors is: Disadvantaged Minority Maritime Shipping Facilitators.

You blood thirsty war mongers these poor souls were only killed because they were BLACK and MUSLIN the captain was white and a so called Christian! A real Christian would have insisted that no matter what his captures were not to be harmed. Were was the due process? Were they read their rights? It was Willie Horton, Rodney King, Mumia Abu-Jamal, and more recently Lovelle Mixon all over again. It is clear in this instance Obama is choosing his mother’s bigot racist blood over that of father!

From the WaPo?

I guess Obama now officially has his marching orders.

I’ve looked over the GoogleEarth annotated satellite page earlier provided here of FREEP. It looks like a few AC-130’s could put paid to the pirates boats and compounds up and down the coast in about a day’s work.

Much cheaper than having Blackwater security teams on every ship passing through the area.

Wow! WaPo?

.............."Start by blaming the timorous lawyers who advise the governments attempting to cope with the pirates such as those who had been engaged in a standoff with U.S. hostage negotiators in recent days. These lawyers misinterpret the Law of the Sea Treaty and the Geneva Conventions and fail to apply the powerful international laws that exist against piracy. The right of self-defense -- a principle of international law -- justifies killing pirates as they try to board a ship.

Maybe they are competing with the Telegraph UK to try to pick up conservative readers in the past week.

“I’m shocked the Post printed this.”

Why are you shocked? The Messiah is going to turn this into a political coup and WAPO and her sisters are going to make the Messiah a king.

The countries who have shiphands held hostage are going to jump on this and Obizzle is going to have a “coalition of the willing.”
