Is that the same Spain that cut and ran from the WOT? Talk about chickens coming home to roost!
This sounds like an opportunity for some entrepreneur.
No one should be operating in these waters without an attachment of sea-going gurkhas, or some-such. Some bright guys could contract to put security teams aboard as ships enter the zone, to remain aboard until they have reached safer waters.
Or contract to escort them through in another craft.
As it is, though, until things change in the region, you’d have to be crazy to traverse these waters unarmed and unprotected.
Spain is Anti-American and Anti-NATO.
Middle of nowhere, maybe 300 mi north of Mogadishu. Looks like a breakwater but no port facility (GoogleEarth is amazing). I'm sure there's a local warlord who might be displeased about a blockade.
The socialists should have plenty of troops to deploy, since their only fronts (besides the ETA) are Portugal, UK (Gibraltar), and France — all of whom are members of NATO I think. :’D thanks george76.
Spain? Spain wants help with Islamic terrorists?
Is this the SAME Spain that once expelled the Muslims?
NO - this is the Spain that threw an election to win the favor of Muslims, seeking to avoid further “problems” by kissing ass.
If Spain wishes to fight Islamic terrorism - she will have to get off her ass and lead the way to the fight..
Perhaps then - we can provide ASSISTANCE..
But... the US is not the police of the world remember? Eurocentrists throw that at us every chance they get so... I dont see problems staying wayyyy out of it LOL.
Why appeal to NATO instead of the UN?? (WE know why but I love seeing the truth hit the fan).
Hmm lets see what do those 2 nations have in common (besides geography)? Could it be the word WUSS? Time for them to remember what happens to people who forget to stand for SOMETHING. This is gonna be fun to watch :)
