“The three other pirates, however, showed signs of growing irritation,..”
Usually when confronting SEALS, the adversary isn’t allowed time for this emotional state. Usually the only emotional state they are allowed is a complete and immediate cessation of all emotions as well as bodily functions.
After firing,I can see him grabbing the rifle by the barrel!
Three rounds, three ex-pirates. Sweet!
Letting yourself be pulled by a US warship, with elite US forces on board, separated by a 100 foot tow rope; is not a good idea!
whack a mole
Whack-A-Mole.
We could change it to "Whack-A-Muzzie"
Unlike Bill Clinton with Blackhawk Down.
In that situation, the racist white/troop hating communist dictators loving Congressional Black Caucus grabbed president clinton by his "blackness" and convinced him to not protect our troops who were then killed and dragged through the streets in Somali.
The Caucus didn't want black people killed, even if they in turn would kill and maim our troops.
The CBC is a traitorous racist anti-American group of black congresspeople, 42 members at this time.
As we can see from the news reports, the terrorist pirates state they will pump up their attacks.
The leftists scream America has now caused terrorists to hate us and this incident will bring more attacks.
Big deal, the terrorists are emboldened by Obama's showing his weakness to the world with his recent apology tour.
This was the first attack by pirates on an American Flagged ship in a long time, they held back when a real man was in the Office of the Presidency.
“A lesson to terrorists.
Letting yourself be pulled by a US warship, with elite US forces on board, separated by a 100 foot tow rope; is not a good idea”!
LOL, I am sure some pirate is scribbling that down right now in their playbook. Whats that saying about grabbing the tail of the tiger?
Thanks! Heck, they didn’t even have to get wet. ;-)
Now THat is professional.
The best thing Obama could do was stay the heck out of the way. Mission Accomplished.

Are all SEALS trained as snipers or just some?
LOL...maybe the idea was to get them seasick so they would come out from uner the cover....they said they had their heads out an opening....
No it doesn’t, hence the comment.
Add to that the comment above about the short tow, prop wash etc and I think the three shot scenario stated looks even more “miraculous”.
Not second guessing anything, just looking at the details. Glad it’s over, resolved “correctly” at that.
Yeah, Good Lord, ANYONE would’ve given a standing order if the Captain was in IMMINENT danger. . . .what good would it do NOT to?
Yeah, Obama’s some leader . . .lol.
“The on-scene commander gave the snipers authority to fire.”
No no no.
Our lord and savior Messiah Obama deserves ALL credit!
He has passed the first test!
Glory to Obama, GLORY!!!!
This was a turkey shoot. Send Maersk the bill for the clean-up.

When Obama gets done giving the orders to have the rat’s nests of piratedom on the Somali coast obliterated, then he and his sycophants can pat himself on the back.
Kudos to our military who stand ready to serve their nation.
The terrorist pirates were black.
See Post #47
Short answer: "Present" Obama, a community organizer, knows nothing of Military strategy.
Heh heh,,,projectile vomiting khat at the propellers in the Bainbridge.......too funny
I do know one of their “mottos” or whatever it would be called
“You can run, but you will just die tired”
Told to me by the girlfriend of a sniper.
When she told me his occupation, I stopped flirting with her...LOL
(He was on a roof top nearby)
Maersk is a shipping company and they were most likely delivering cargo on behalf of the US Government.
