Thanks for the confirmation.
I'm with you Sgt Z Squad.
I was wondering why nothing happened earlier during this encounter and suspected "foul play" at the highest levels. Especially after knowing they had taken the lifeboat with the pirates and hostage were in under tow. I guess you'd have to spend time on ships and boats to know what this meant for you....immediately I recognized they would be on the lee side of the boat. That does four things for you immediately as a sniper...1) it puts them in range 2) range is constant 3) the sea is calmed 4) wind direction doesn't change; all of which makes a sniper's life much easier.
When the hostage jumped in the water the first time...why did nothing happen? Two reasons in my mind, the snipers weren't set up or they weren't authorized to shoot. Oh, and before anyone comments on rough seas....conditions had deteriorated when the actual deed was done. If you think the hostage jumped off the boat too far away to be helped you're smokin' something....there's enough about the coolness of the captain to know he didn't panick and jump...bound...in the water too far away to be helped. Snipers weren't ready....I don't buy that either....I'm certain the U.S. Navy showed up prepared, we haven't had enough time for BHO to trash our military yet. Which in my mind leaves the weak link--BHO and his tax cheat ivy leaguers.
I'm certainly not going to believe the BHO cheer squad (NBC, ABC, CBS and CNN) would do publish this information if it was in their hands. They'll only report it when the news is out on the internet, and you can bet, in an apologetic manner as damage control.
