ok personally I love these pirates. sure they are causing a lot of problems to a lot of innocent people. But its a reaction to a destabalized country, which if my memory is correct america had a hand in that. and seriously these facts are all messed up. first off calling qaat a cocaine like high is like saying a double esspresso is a cocaine like high (i've done all three drugs and I know). yes wouldn't you be unstable if you drank coffee for 3 days and didn't sleep? Also I have to ask you guys have you read how the local fishing industries in the area are thriving now? so places like kenya and somoalia can acctually eat, and fish is cheep!

Funny how the Pirates don't attack military ships. and why is that?
Seems to me there is a simple solution to this problem .... Just kill all the pirates when they attack. when the pirates stop coming home with money ....the word will get out.Simple solution

The news was OK, but it seems like this dumb boaters should A: avoid these waters and B: bring a few guns with them. Those somalians can't shoot worth crap, all you would need is a couple rifles, maybe a pump shotgun or two if they got aboard, and for big oil boats and such a large-bore recoil-less rifle.
