Quoting: Chapman_BaxterOnce I saw a list of tyrannies and banana republics supported by the US from 1950 on upwards, it was quite long, lol. I am here to challenge your indoctrinated false belief that flaming queens don't use shovels ... |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 557921 United States 11/24/2008 10:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The answer seems kind of simple, mount some .50 cals or 20mm guns on the ships. This doesn't make sense to me. It seems like TPTB are letting this happen, but I couldn't figure out the reason, now, this Iranian twist. Interesting, maybe they "accidentally" fire on a "friendly" country by deception? Who knows, but it does seem like an easy problem to solve. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 557921I'm curious what kind or arms the pirates would have that would hold off a naval force? I'm more curious as to how these so called pirates keep getting onto these large cargo ships and taking them over. |

Quoting: FreeFlowExactomundo. But the US may not actually be involved at all, as there are many powers out there playing their cards very close to the chest. We need something like a mass information leak to the internet of all government secrets, then nobody has anything to hide anymore, and all people will hold hands and sing happy songs forevermore.

It's only about getting aboard without getting spotted on the route, which isn't that hard considering the fact it's a huge stretch of ocean and not enough coverage. The moment you have boarded the cargo ship you are to valuable to be blown to the bottom of the ocean(which is what an attack against it would cause). |
