General comment on the sea pirate events of the past days

Although, I am finding myself disturbingly happy at the outcome of the ordeal.

I believe that is the proverbial tip of the iceberg for a new test of our international resolve

I agree - the pirates will challenge us again.

unfortunately, I think it will be more than just "the pirates"

benedict_xvi: you think they think?

Not surprised that they released their "vow for revenge" on Al-Jazeera" today

I'm starting to wonder if we'll see escorted caravans of cargo ships like during WWII.

One or two destroyers escorting 4-5 cargo ships.

I think given the nature of the threat they could just arm a significant % of ships with 10 marines and some surface2surface missiles
