Very timely post! The US took unilateral preemptive action against the Barbary Pirates? Shocking. I hope we had UN approval. Did France say that was OK? I can hear the chants now, "no blood for shipping"!

This is a great post. Thank you for it. Makes me so proud to be an American! Makes me so thankful to be protected by our military!
