At least it will make them think twice before grabbing
a US flagged ship again, I hope.

Not only US flagged ships but any ship.


I agree, but with most companies/countries just paying
the ransom money, I don't think it will stop soon. It's
just been going on for way to long.

You're right there.

I don't think they can think. They tried 4 more over night. And at
least one was an American ship. Shot a hole in it too.
I hear that land based search for the pirates will be underway soon.


Just did a quick read on that and at least no one was hurt
and they didn't take the ship. I do hope that they search
for all of those pirates both on land and at sea and make
quick justus of them. We , the US, haven't had a problem
like this for over 200 years since we stopped the Barbary
Coast pirates at Tripoli.
