Yes I keep reading these threads and many posts ignore that they were off of Oman not Somalia.

Someone already reminded us that you can't fix stupid, so I won't repeat it.

The Somali pirates have been working off the coast of Oman for years.

Learning a bit of geography can avoid a lot of embarrassment.

I had some friends who cruised their yacht from India to the Suez last year. There are a lot of yachts still making this passage and they do it in convoys. In their case the French navy was watching their group(among a lot of commercial ships). The US MSM is trying to marginalize them because they happened to carry bibles to hand out to Christian communities along the way. Somehow Christian’s are less worthy of protection..along with CIA employees in Pakistan.
I am disappointed in the folks on FR. Maybe we just have too many idiots and trolls now.
