I think a couple os Los Angeles class Attack subs running up and down the coast looking for a Pirate mother ship is the way to go.
1 MK48 torpedo should do the trick.
heck Sharks need to eat too right

I just heard the \"other side of the story\" that isn't told by typical american news media >_< and it isn't pretty. All I can say about the insidious Navy SEALs is that he who kills with the sword will be killed by the sword.

Well if it’s war they want, then it’s war they will get.

Or, they could choose not to take American Vessels…

too bad so sad. the pirates made a choice and suffered the consequences.

so let me guess, instead of you posting the "other side of the story" you're just going to keep it to yourself and make un-supported accusations about what the UDT SEALs did huh. the UDT SEALs shot all 3 of those fine upstanding Somali gentlemen in the head. at the same time, at night, from 75 yards, on two ships bobbing in the ocean.
I feel the Somali's got better than what they deserved, and unless you can convice me otherwise, which I doubt, I will not shed a tear for them. but I'm always open to the prospect, I am Mr. Sensitivity after all

A BIG DITTO HERE! Those bloody pirates are taking hostages with loaded weapons that they aren't hesitant about using. The Navy Seals can kill them with impunity until they stop raiding the shipping lanes.

Neo, please post a link to the 'other side of the story'.

Personally, I think something else happened that what we were told. The day that this all went down, I saw 3 different stories over the course of the day all from military officials.

There is nothing \"insidious\" about the Navy Seals. They are \"commandos\". They are trained to KILL; efficiently and quickly. They don't Do \"policing actions\". When you actually HEAR that they have arrived, negotiations \"are about over\". Most of the time we never hear about what they get to do. Kinda like ninja.

I was re-reading his post and he describes the SEALs as insidious.

–adjective

this doesnt even come CLOSE to describing the SEALs, you would insinuate that the Pirates didnt know they were in trouble and that we tried to be deciteful in our tactics with them. far trom it. we tried to negotiate, and when they felt the Captains life was in danger they acted.

and as Duper very correctly put it they are Commando's

And now the 4th pirate is about to discover the horror of the american/6:00 news judicial system. Already it brought tears to his eyes.
