  • His solution is excellent. Let the shipping vessels carry whatever weapons they want to defend themselves from the pirates. It's a no brainer. The US should not police the world--the empire is already in steep decline

  • One of the few politicians that are making sense

  • What The Mass Media Aren’t Telling You About Somalia Pirates.....

    In 1991, the government of Somalia collapsed. Its nine million people have been teetering on starvation ever since – and the ugliest forces in the Western world have seen this as a great opportunity to steal the country’s food supply and dump our nuclear waste in their seas.

  • Did we expect starving Somalians to stand passively on their beaches, paddling in our toxic waste, and watch us snatch their fish to eat in restaurants in London and Paris and Rome? We won't act on those crimes – the only sane solution to this problem – but when some of the fishermen responded by disrupting the transit-corridor for 20 per cent of the world's oil supply, we swiftly send in the gunboats.

  • shoot on site, make a limited area and a shoot on site area, they cross it the limited area, boom, boom time. limited area should be 3000 yards. thats more then enough safety factor to convince them to back off.

  • @ 0:53 -Yes, Clinton escalated the Somali ground presence (by deploying the Deltas against Aidid) but it was Bush senior who initiated Operation Restore Hope. Clinton just happened to inherit Bush's foreign policy and it was the Republicans who pressured Clinton to withdraw (you can easily find "maverick" McCain pressuring the Clinton administration to leave Somalia on YouTube).

  • A whiteboy pretending to be somalian and claiming Obama is a bigger liar than Bush. Who's dumb enough to believe this crap?
