pirates fired warning shots in the air, according to an American military official.

The American boat did not return fire and “did not want to escalate the situation,” said the official

So much BS, why were they approaching at all? Wasn't that in itself an escalation? There is something afoot.

IMHO if we didn't want to escalate the situation we wouldn't even be there. There is so much disinformation out there it's hard to cut to the truth.

There two ways this could end up: JMO

1. They reach shore and the Captain is a hostage for who knows how long.

2. They don't reach shore and the crew is arrested (how I don't know) and the Captain is rescued. "O" will be a hero, no bloodshed, and for not overreacting.

Think about it, we have plans to take these people out ( as opposed to the idiotic and laughable plans I've seen posted on so many threads here ). It just takes the will of our CIC and he ain't got it.

If O lets them reach shore then he is really not an American and needs to be impeached.

This is so disgusting and our 5th column will defend this idiot no matter what.

God help us, we can't take out 4 pirates in a lifeboat?

Someting else goin on here.

“Someting else goin on here.”

Yup, he sure has us looking at this. What’s he doing elsewhere?
