bbc has this as breaking news, as well.

You'll note the release is in ENGLISH? I wonder who that is meant for?

Can’t really believe anything either side is saying right now.

You don’t take over a ship with a boat.

Looks like disinformation.

What language would you prefer? Russian—in order to inform them that they or their minion tried to seize the ship?

To answer you, I’ll tell you they put it in English so the French can understand it. But you can quit wondering why when you get a higher IQ. That’s why BBC does shows in English.

Ahh grasshopper, learn to go to source of BBC article as per your posted link. Or look at html source which includes language selection. End of mystery, yes?

My guess is that the theater of their eventual "capture" has already been negotiated and this is but act one.

I could be, and often am wrong.

What other language should a BBC report use, latin?

I took it that the release was from the Ukranian Navy and was in english. As much as obama wishes that America was not a Super Power - it is. That is why the protestors had hand made signs in english, the navy puts out releases in english, and Russia will put out its reply in english as well. Some are prompts of “Hey - a little help?”. Putin’s will be a “So what are ya’ going to do about it”.

And what WILL we do about it?

The way obama does things it is all very scattered and to fix the latest emergency. That is very intentional I believe (see the link in my tagline - FDR did the same thing).

And while that may work to get his crisis-of-the-day into the news so he can “fix” it, it does not lend itself to good foreign policy.

I think that, despite your feigned indignation, an explanation might help. Let's take a look at the comment that started it all:

You'll note the release is in ENGLISH? I wonder who that is meant for?

So, I'm curious, who do you think the press release is meant for? George Soros?
