@AskariWaryaa International law has been changed allowing security contractors to carry weapons on cargo ships because it is very expensive to send in navy ships to guard the area.... control of the oceans?? where? anyone can go anywhere in international waters... what are you trying to say?

i agree. who cares about the bum pirates they should be worrying about their own problems instead of causing problems for other people. we already tried to help those bums and they happily turned it into a bloodbath. fuck that.

I feel sorry for the people on the ship. However, it would be ignorant to say that pirates are evil. She says that he didn't got any food or water? What about the Somali people? I don't think they have that much of nutrition and water neither.

Let's just hope the Western World will understand that this issue can't be solved by shooting pirates but by setting up a government. We need to take responsibility and pay reparations for what we've done in the past.

Americans are so brainwashed, the pirates are just an experiment of the sick and twisted new world order. The plan goes a little like this, ban weapons on all ships apart from those of the UN. Piracy sky rockets all over the world, and then the good old boys are sent in as a solution which is really a strategic plan to gain control of the oceans.
