Did we at least read them their rights before we executed them?
Being shamed into action because of the French of all countries. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.

Watching CNN now for further details. Three of four pirates killed and the Captain has not been injured...perfect! If this was accomplished by our military without a penny of ransom being paid, all involved deserve a hero’s welcome home. Now lets go in and clean up that rat’s nest on the coast of Somalia.

This STILL took entirely too long.
Also, if there is no retribution, towards the pirates on shore and in the other pirate boats, this stuff will only get worse.
