MOSCOW, Russia — Following high level complaints about "imperfections" in international law, Russia announced Tuesday that captured Somali pirates "have all died." A Russian official claimed that 10 pirates seized by Russian special forces aboard an oil tanker last week were quickly freed but then died on their way back to the Somali coast.

Great news! The Russians have arranged for them to meet their god. How thoughtful!
Dead scumbag walked!
The pirates got the Soviet treatment... A bullet to the brain and being shoved off in a leaking raft, which was promptly blown up.
Hezballah kidnapped the CIA Station Chief in Bierut, tortured and interogated him for a year, then hung him with piano wire (all on video).
Hezballah kidnapped some Russian. The KGB went out kidnapped some Hezballah guys, tortured them, cut their balls off and returned them to Hezballah. The kidnapped Russian was then released.
We have terrorism today, because we've wimped out since 1967 on responding to terrorists.
Yup
Here are the 11 pirates before they were set free. Ons appears to be dead.
Cool! Fishing for sharks.
Sad.
That’s thinking ahead, paint the deck red so that the blood doesn’t show.
It appears the assumed dead guy has blood coming out from around his feet? Different shade of red there.
yes. Very sad
Somebody, somewhere, is bound to come up with the idea that all ships that go anywhere near Somalia should be marked with Russian names or Russian markings, or carry a Russian flag, at least until they move away from those waters.
They put them in a cardboard boat
Yep, I was in that area on the ground during that era, and I remember those tales.
You got a one party system ruling that country. The press still mainly controled by the government. And Shamnesty International knows the Russians will fart in response to any of their “human rights violation” claims.
Shamnesty International saves all their biased venom for Israel and the USA because they know our press will back them up all the way. They lowblow us because they know we care about our image.
Everyone else gets a pass because just like CNN back in Saddam’s days, they sell their souls to simply be allowed into the country.
What no Miranda rights? /s
No lawyers on the ship? How dare they!
They should just about be passing through the sharks’ lower intestines by now.
The little sucker fish on the sharks will probably even pick up some pirate nutrients.
