I thought we were supposed to give them a hug and make them US citizens, because the US is changing and we want to help them. /sarc

Seriously why are we even negotiating with this vermin.

From the AP, FBI hostage team joins standoff with pirates

"The military has called in FBI hostage negotiators to help end a standoff with Somali pirates holding a U.S. ship captain hostage.

The pirates are holding the captain in a drifting lifeboat, with a U.S. warship watching nearby.

FBI spokesman Richard Kolko says FBI hostage negotiators are "fully engaged" in the standoff." The pirates took Capt. Richard Phillips as a hostage after an attack on a U.S. cargo ship. The American crew retook the ship and the pirates fled into the lifeboat. Hostage negotiators and military officials are working to free Phillips.
