Sounds like the Russkies dropped them off far from the coast with no means of getting ashore. Death by dehydration?


To me it sounds more like too much hydration.

I love how they ‘freed’ them. most likely without food or water left then in a rubber raft miles from shore.

You forgot the part where they pricked a small hole in the bottom of the raft just for the sport of it.

Possibly ten nearly simultaneous cases of lead poisoning, not administered through bodily orifices.

"Freed" = thrown overboard, I hope.

It appears that if Pirates try to seize your ship #1 on the speed dial is the Rooskies...

Wonder if that number could be posted?

My No Trespassing Signs say “ I don’t dial 9-1-1 “

Shipping Companies could say “ We dial 1-800 Rooskie “ or whatever text that would convey the message “Touch us You Die”

It’s like an International 2nd Amendment!
