I don't think I would shed many tears if they grabbed the leader and hanged him from the nearest yardarm, like they use to for piracy.

As long as the crew is off the ship, Bomb it.

One timber ship is a small price to pay to rid the world of some of these terrorists.

Agreed, and that’s exactly what this is: piracy. Law of the Seas applies people. XD

Send a squad of headhunters to retake the ship. Tell them that whatever they kill, they can eat.

End of problem.

In other news. Several bodys washed up on Nykong beach this morning, the only thing holding the body's together is the fact they were all wearing Birkenstock’s.

They may learn China is not quite so sympathetic to terrorist keeping them from resources they need.

That was the first thought that went through my mind. I don’t think China is too worried about the bad press that they might get for sinking their ship.

If we can get Greenpeace to work against the Chinese and Russians, they could be called our "French Special Forces Unit"

I believe that is called “piracy” and according to International law on the high seas the penalty is death, immediate and no questions asked.......

...hanged him from the nearest yardarm...

Not too many "yardarms" on ships nowadays. But they do have a crane.........

I was being nostalgic with the yardarm, but a crane arm would work just as well IMHO.

Greenpeace has a long proven track record of terrorism and piracy - yet they are still allowed to operate and function as a basically “free” group. Why?
