All cargo ships to start flying under Russian flag. Book it.
I was watching the "Deadliest Warrior" series on Spike. They had Spetnatz vs. the IRA. This old Spetnatz guy ran a gauntlet with a pistol shooting targets as he moved through the doors. The moderator asked him "How did it go?" He replied-cold as ice- "They are all dead".
They may have been miles from shore, but they probably could not locate a rubber raft either.
Pirates were forced to listen to tapes of old Obama news conferences and ultimately blew their brains out.
If the shipping industry has any brains at all, they will start flying the Ruskie flag.
at least someone knows what they are doing. Outsource the whole patrol to the Russkies.
lol
that were free to swim back to shore !
ROFL!
Old age suddenly crept up on them.
shark bait...
More like lead poisoning.
The official told Russian news agencies the pirates' boat disappeared from Russian radar about an hour after their release.
"They could not reach the coast and, apparently, have all died," the official said.
Sounds like the Russkies dropped them off far from the coast with no means of getting ashore. Death by dehydration? I'd hate to think what they'd do to a CO in the US Navy if he did that....
Or poisoned food and water,whatever.I`d bet on a 2 hour timer,no evidence
Probably be a while before the pirates take another Russkie ship hostage.
>> quickly freed but then died on their way back to the Somali coast
heh heh... Sure. Riiiight. Whatever you say, Ivan.
Ya gotta love those Rooskies...
The Russians don’t mess around. Remember when a Russian ambassador was held hostage in Lebanon in ‘85? The Russians launched counter measures and captured family members of the assailants, sending them family body parts by messenger. No more Russians were ever taken hostage.
AWESOME! Putin has some balls on something decent.
Bet they did when their boat blew up!
He said they “will face trial if we find them alive.”
Has anybody but me noticed the sign in this photo of this “pirate” in Mombassa, Kenya? The name on the sign is PATRIE.
If you rearrange the letters in the word PATRIE you can spell PIRATE with no letters left over. I’m just sayin’
