Who Are The Pirates?

The capture of a U.S. cargo ship is hardly the first to be taken hostage by Somali pirates. As Richard Roth reports, their motives are simple, demanding cash and creating anarchy.

They are not stupid they are getting paid. LOL

[CrustyConrad]

This just in Obama administration to send punch and cookies to somali pirates along with terse note stating"please don't take our ships Mr. pirate". The Obama administration further stated that "pirates' are henceforth to be known as "unwelcome ship guest" as the use of the word "pirates" has been found to be divisive and not in the spirit of the new "changed" America.

@nycrtst33 Oh dear. Shame. Well I guess US should bend over backwards because a shitty third world country had his land, which it didn't put to use, taken from it.

[nycrtst33]

@bootieslaya-yes someone that gets it.superpowers are greedy./

[nycrtst33]

@Semi0Skimmed0Milk-exterminate the superpowers so the Somalis can have their way of life back they stole from/The superpowers stole their fishing business from their own land.

[nycrtst33]

Oh no the pirates got greedy just like the corporations ships they steal from not to mention the superpowers that stole their own fishing business."when evil is the only solution, you do evil.I know it is evil, but it is a solution."-Somali when you're family is starving has no food,no income because foreigner superpowers stole the way of life from your own land then you can talk.its like robin hood stealing from the rich.well these greedy ships corporations are evil soo...

[8489rudy]

[quantumreality2009]

@daboyutube yeah that is such a cliche !!

[quantumreality2009]

@gulmoh Yeah right..so if we are so evil and criminal why are YOU using this forum and speaking our language...? you hypocrit !!! are the Somalis actually sharing their ill gotten loot with the other Africans??? le tme think...well I think NOT !! and you know that too gulmoh....you are a loser attached to a sect of losers...go figure..

[McTacobell808]

@Semi0Skimmed0Milk Yeah and it is stupid because they often let the pirates go! They need to go right to Somalia and execute them so it will scare people from being pirates.

[McTacobell808]

Lol I love all the niggers saying Africa is such a great country and the white people have stolen everything from them. Honestly, nothing good has come out of Africa. Africa needs all the Western countries to bail their asses out of poverty, and all they have done is created aids and ebola. I hope more navy ships come in so they can kill these pesky pirates.

[vJpRIzM]

They try to make it seem like the Africans are bad people. If you ask any of these pirates why they do it, its because the westerners stole their fishing livelihood and other precious survival resources. Payback is a motherfucker, any profits they seize from these corrupt corporations is a good thing.

CBS has ILLUMINATI SYMBOLISM IN THIER EYE LOGO!

[dougdangger]

All one needs to fend off these cockroaches is to fill squit guns with pig's blood and they'll run like the rats they are.

They're so insane with their bullshit religion of worshipping a dirty fat pig who raped a 4 year old girl.

[HoodwinkedbyanAngel]

I know there is a God and I know ~ for sure

God put Jews ~ mosquitos ~ & vertical chimps { Somali`s }

on earth to Fuck with the White Man ~

[Semi0Skimmed0Milk]

Oh quit all your useless debates regarding "morality".

The US is the biggest superpower in the world. A few deluded Somalian "freedom fighters", pilfering and looting under the false guise of "protecting their country", should not be a problem. Somalia's people kill and murder one another ... face the facts, they, like all humans, are in it for themselves. They protect nothing but their own interests.

So should the US.

I say exterminate them :) every single one. Make an example of them.

[nololwacan]

all the powers have navy ova there& can't stop,cmon,bigger than wat u think,check ur neck of the woods & follow the money.

[theironman5678]

[Houshalter]

@germaniajim, It's funny because you approve of torture. It's not people in somalia are starving or anything.

[itztheJL]

YOU ARE A PIRATE!

[sav12600]

@germaniajim OI SHUT IT YEA YOU NO GD NAZI KRAUT

[SPARTANSSG117Y]

LOL. Somalian pirates? NO NO NO BIASED MEDIA, SOMALIAN FREEDOM FIGHTERS! They do this for money? How stupid do they think we are? PEOPLE DUMP NUCLEAR WASTE into Somalia's waters! What do you expect them to just let them do that!? Like our music teacher said, if Canada's army did that, they would be called brave soldiers, but since foreigners are doing it, they're called pirates.

GO SOMALIAN PIRATES! SHOW THEM WHO's WATER THIS IS!!! (FREEDOM OF SPEECH)

[jeestocent]

they are not somalis people, even they are not pretend the somali people, they are stupid fucking minded peopls, they would not know even how to behave the hostage people, they are out of humanistic.

[cameronrowan6]
