A lot fewer Somali men will think piracy is an attractive occupation after today.

They might think piracy ***of American vessels*** is a bad idea, but they still control a lot of other commercial ships and hostages at the moment.

Actually, if the one survivor lives, think of the intel we may get from him, providing we can still interrogate prisoners.

Yep. We bagged a bunch today and the French got some too. Didn’t an Aussie chopper take out a boat yesterday too? Making the pirates insurance go up lol.
