Somali pirates who seized a ship carrying tanks and weapons are surrounded by at least three foreign warships. Piracy itself is nothing new, but the reaction is - because only when a cargo of weapons was threatened did the world really react.

  • when i was a kid, pirates had wooden legs and eye patches!

    not speedboats and ak-47's.

    hahaha

  • @101andrewj Well the (a) reason for this increase in piracy is because there are so many people illegally fishing in Somalia, the people can't feed themselves. Imagine, massive industrial ships that just clean the water of the sealife....

    thats fucked up. I'd be pissed too!

  • @nelson3300 ancient somali wisdom "we dont need agriculture, we eat each otherrr" they cant feed themselves? somalia can grow enough food to feed itself and export the surplus but the people are demented for some reason and not able to organize farming and agriculture, this is probably related to mofo voodoo cannibalism

  • @jobbo2 Upgraded, lol

  • @rkolari no thats gay man did you just imagine that or something

  • I love it how they ask now for help to solve the problems in Somalia. When US marines were killed like animals, tied behind cars and dragged around Moghadisu you guys were laughing. Now nobody gives a shit now about Somalia, and nobody will care if UN blows up Somalia and removes it from the world map.

  • When someone shows up with guns. You show up with bigger guns. Its called america.

    Fucking UN being too chicken shit to do anything.

  • @nelson3300 -There was a goverment in Somalia, it crumbled -> Somalia now a no-mans-land with no laws.

    Piracy is extremely profitable now when there is no legislation.

    They dont attack because they are pissed, they are oppoturnistic.

  • looks like tortuga decided to rename their country..

  • somalia can have their military and patrol their waters all they want but if they are going to attack and board harmless cargo ships, they are going to get blown the fuck up, this bullshit about them "protecting their resources" is ridiculous, if they cant tell between a fishing boat thats illegally fishing in their water and a oil tanker then we have a serious problem

  • Dundee wooooooo!
