The End - Russian Style
There is plenty of commentary today about what to do with about the pirate problem around the waters of Somalia. These waters are by far the most dangerous on the planet and as today's gruesome events that ended with the murder of 4 American citizens indicates, negotiation is no longer an option.
The laws that govern activities on the high seas are old and in fact state that the captain of a ship has the last say when pirates are captured. In the old days, death was the punishment and this law still stands today.
The Russians apparently believe in these old laws as this video indicates. Piracy cannot be tolerated, should not be tolerated and in the end, for those who do not value life should feel glory in their deaths.
I used to always say the only two good things that have ever come out of Russia are vodka and good looking women. Now I am of a different opinion and long live Mother Russia as long as she continues to do the dirty work the rest of us don't have the balls to deal with.
Sidenote: the video at the link is graphic in nature and should not be viewed for pansy ass liberals who think we should dump more monetary and food aid into Somalia instead of raining death on their heads from above.
I did catch one sentence in English Toast, it was "why do you lie to me, this is not a fishing boat".
My solution would have been to throw all but one pirate overboard and have them "try" and swim to shore. I understand the waters in the gulf are shark filled. Of course the one pirate who wasn't tossed overboard would be left to tell the tale to his pirates on shore.
This reminds me of a story that happened many years ago when the Russians were in Afghanistan. It seems a Russian diplomat was kidnapped by muslims for ransom (or whatever). Well the Russian KGB (who don't fuck around) in return kidnapped an Iman or someone of some importance in retaliation and began sending back his fingers, toes, ears, and other body parts to the Muslims until the Russian diplomat was returned unharmed. Of course the Russian WAS returned in one piece and alive. It just goes to show you that all these scumbags only respect power. Great video. Thanks for posting.
Hey Rich, glad to see you are still alive and kicking.
I agree, these people only understand power. But we are so weak now with Captain Waffles at the helm, it's no wonder we haven't been completely dominated by the jihadis. We seem to captiualte to them at every turn. Where is Thomas Jefferson when you need him?
