No way this sould go on, and this isnt the first attack either. I would say that a completely lawless nation like Somalia comes under the jurisdiction of the U.N. And if they artnt going to do anything about it, because "the rights of those pirates to make a living might be violated". Then its time to dispose of the U.N. once and for all. And I dont want any of that typical, " Well if the Americans will step in and do it all, by-themselves, then ok," Crap! Time for the French and Germans to really step-up! Its their back yard, its primarlly their citzen tourists at risk, and past time for the civilized world to send the message we are not prepared to go thousands of years backward in history.
Stop placating the criminals. Stop the pay-offs and bribes. Man-up for crying out loud , I mean this is completely outrageous. Where are you Western Europe?
And if your not capable U.N., lack the gumption, or dont want to risk resoursces. Then get the H*** out of the way of people who will do the job, and shut-up while its being done!
