Now that the FBI is busting fake Somali day cares in Minneapolis, Somali pirates are taking to the high seas back in their own country and hijacking ships, taking hostages and hoping Gov. Tim Walz shows up.
Thus far the piracy has been mostly internal with a Pakistani crew, Indonesians and Syrians taken hostage. That also says something about which sailors and ships felt comfortable operating near Somalia.
Thus far three ships have been hijacked in a week by the Somalis.
Somali officials who have benefited from massive amounts of foreign aid are arguing for negotiations and claiming that they can’t directly intervene due to clan politics.
The Somali pirates are operating out of Puntland which is also where Rep. Ilhan Omar’s war criminal father operated.
So as usual the Somali pirate apple doesn’t fall far from the political tree.
It’s their national past-time.
Twin 50’s.
Turn it into glass.
Well, the supply of fraud money from Minnesota has been cut off so back to robbing ships!
As the democrats and media always say the Somali’s are only looking for a better life.
So it’s okay huh
