Obama can't bring himself to even mount a military rescue effort to free the hostage, let alone use military force to wipe out these pirates. His response to this crisis is to bring in an FBI negotiator to deal with these thugs who do not accept Western concepts and have nothing to lose. What would he do to thwart a a 9-11 sized attack on the US...convene a grand jury, issue indictments and read the terrorists their Miranda rights? Certainly if we were attacked again on US soil his first response, after getting his speech to the American loaded in the teleprompter, would be to call the UN.

I'm afraid that he will, and it will be a multi-death disaster. Remember Carter and Desert One?
