We don't do piracy here. We use the IRS.

The Belgians can kiss these vehicles goodbye. The Un has 2 chances of getting them back --slim and none. What are they going to do? Threaten them? Bwahahaaha thats a joke. UN threats are laughable.

The UN needs to get tough with Equatorial Guinea by passing resolutions until the vehicles are returned!

he United States has long protested the corruption in Equatorial Guinea, actually closing its embassy from 1995 to 2003 This does not surprise me. What is amazing that US government was able to find diplomats willing to work there before 1995 and after 2003.

Do it the old fashioned way, revenge. Send an "ailing" ship in while the crew departs and explode the ship in the harbor.

A July 2003 article from the BBC [6] points out there are no daily newspapers in the country and described how a Fang program called "Bidze-Nduan" ("Bury the Fire") on a widely listened-to state radio station declared that Obiang was "in permanent contact with the Almighty"; a presidential aide on the show also said:
"He (Obiang) can decide to kill without anyone calling him to account and without going to hell because it is God himself, with whom he is in permanent contact, and who gives him this strength." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equatorial_Guinea Not that I trust BBC much more than media in Equatorial Guinea :) but this report might be true.

What is amazing that US government was able to find diplomats willing to work there before 1995 and after 2003. And they have a nice web page there: U.S. Embassy Malabo, Equatorial Guinea

Belgium is worse than the UN. They are both hopeless.

I am sure the Equatorial Guineans are quaking in their boots at the thought of retribution from the fierce Belgians.

In any event, it's not uncommon for government officials to collaborate with pirates. In the last decade, it's happened in China and Southeast Asia... China was engaged in piracy? I remember something about them protecting Scaramanga, but I thought 007 took care of that situation.

I seem to remember something about this. Wasn't a fellow named Clinton involved?
