When the hell are we going to stop these animals once and for all? This is sheer lunacy. And let me guess, Hussein is "Outraged"! Bill T.

I do have to say that these people we no doubt retired and wealthy. What the hell were they doing sailing around that area? The planet is covered by 3/5ths water. Couldn't they find a better, safer place to sail?

As I saw the reports last night I feared this was the way it would end.  With them heading for land and a warship tailing them.  You knew that the Navy had to try something or lose the pirates and hostages, and you knew the pirates were thinking the same.

The owners were, and had been for several years, using the yacht to distribute Bibles around the world.  Sad but fitting that a good couple would lose their lives spreading the Good News.

Billt, we were typing at the same time.  I hope this answers your question.

Sadly, yes. That really isn't the best place in the world to try and spread Christianity.  Bill T.

TW may know more when he posts.
I was going to post it in the Pirate thread where the incident was first mentioned, but Bill beat me to it.

Fox is reporting that the Navy ship WATCHED as the pirates boarded the yacht, but because of our asinine ROE were not allowed to intervene.   >:(

And THAT should pi$$-off every freedom loving American.  When will we get our collective heads out of our collective butts and recognize that vermin need to be eliminated.  Period.

Looks like they did kill a couple of them.

"The U.S. forces killed two pirates in the course of clearing the vessel - one with a handgun and one in a close-combat knife fight."

I was just reading the AP story and it looks like four dead pirates:  Two in the attack and two for some reason earlier. 

From what I saw and read yesterday (Monday) it sounded like the Navy saw it happen, but were too far away to intervene with the hijacking.

My hopes, but I'm not holding my breath, are that these thirteen are not breathing when they reach port  >:(

I think the Russians are on the right track.

"A group of Somali pirates captured by the Russian navy in the Gulf of Aden and then set free in a boat are most probably dead after failing to reach the shore, a Russian defence source said Tuesday.

Reports have said that after their release the Russian navy put the pirates in a boat some 300 nautical miles offshore, removing all weaponry and navigational equipment from the vessel."
