FROM FOX:

At least 12 of the Americans aboard the Maersk Alabama are members of the Seafarers International Union, spokesman Jordan Biscardo said. The union is trying to get as much information on the situation as it can, he said.

Oh mymymy, NOW they're in for it! Union thugs against pirates - ideological bretheren, but who will come out alive?
