President Barack Obama twice authorized the military to rescue a U.S. captain ... Obama gave the OK on Friday and Saturday to rescue Capt. Richard Phillips

Oh-oh.
Barry's 'orders' were to "Rescue" Capt. Phillips. NOT to kill the Pirates.

And since they (Kenyan Admin) had already classified this act as a 'Crime', not an act of War the Navy SEAL Snipers could be in trouble as they aren't LEOs. So they 'could' be classified as War Criminals for these 'murders' by some euro-weenie and charges filed with the ICC.

And given Eric Holder's 'pro' views on the ICC and International Law, I wouldn't doubt that he WOULD go along with this. After all the FBI was called there first, not the SEALS. AND, the one pirate was arrested by the FBI as a 'criminal'.

So I'd be very afraid if I was those SEALS.

I'm series. Nothing these Anti-American cretins do would surprise me.

The Obamas Stage Daring Rescue

AP: Washington DC April 12 2008 10:37PM EST

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibb released an official photo of the President and First Lady rescuing Captain Richard Phillips from Somali pirates.

In a prepared statement Gibb stated, "...that America's foes better be prepared for robust and immediate and personal action from The President and First Lady."

The President and First Lady were unharmed according to Gibb. They are expected to arrived on Monday by a F-18 Hornet piloted by Michelle Obama.

Gibb also stated that the supposed visit by The First Family to St. John's Episcopal Church was an elaborate plot to lull the Somali pirates in to complacency while The President and First Lady arrived on the scene. Actors were used to impersonate the Obamas.

When asked by reporters his reactions to the rescue, Vice President Biden responded, "The Obamas are some crazy SOB's and they kick ass and take names, so you better not piss them off."

Actually, the Navy asked him to give it twice. They recorded it so that if Captain Phillips had been killed in the rescue effort, they had cold, hard evidence to rebut president Pantywaist when he said that he had ordered them to stand down.
