Hmm. I don’t think they will find the Libyans to be as civilized as the Japanese. Lots of luck with that. Glad I don’t know anyone on board.
I’d have to dig in the archives but I think a year or so ago they went after Bluefin poachers in the Med and claimed they got shot at. I can’t stand Captain Mouthbreather, but he’s not a coward. We’ll see if he starts getting his people killed.
Unfortunately, commercial fishermen face a very competitive market and for some people, a war zone is tempting for poaching without having to worry about things like limits. Overfishing killed Canada’s cod industry, so it’s not merely on whim.
Right, if they get hosed down by the Libyans, it will not be with water cannons.
