The U.S. Navy and the FBI say they are working to free the captain of a U.S. - registered cargo ship that was seized by pirates off the coast of Somalia. The captain, an American, is being held hostage by the pirates who briefly hijacked the Maersk Alabama Wednesday. They fled to a lifeboat after the ship's crew regained control of the vessel. An FBI spokesman says a hostage negotiating team is "fully engaged" with the military in trying to free Captain Richard Phillips. VOA's Robert Raffaele has more.

  • those same navy seals if they are really informed with the situation they should die, because if its fair to over trow a complete just government for the better of the american economy, then i say kill those navy seals, and if my son or cousins are one of them then kill them too, justice for mankind, or no justice for all! shit if i was there because i know the recruiters are after only getting us in there, i would hope they kill me as well...

  • i saw this on discovery. some incredible SEAL snipers got 3 headshots simultaneously and ended the situation.
