But as raised by pieman, I also wonder why the U.S. is surrounding the ship. Especially with Russia in the equation.

Wasn't part of the Cargo a bunch of tanks? True - they are probably inoperable and "below deck". Never Mind, I'm realizing I'm making an *** of myself due to lack of sleep.
More Coffee, coming up!

Start using bait ships in the area that are heavily armed. Once the pirates start to try to board a bait ship, kill them all. Leave no trace and begin again.

Jerico, its not funny the impersonators impersonating somebody else, its old hat and I have heard it all before. What is funny that if this was an American ship we would have all the Patriots out screaming nuke that country blow the pirates out of the water, which just goes to show what double standards you have and what limited grasp of reality many Americans have.

Unfortunately for our non travelling American friends the World does not look like how Hollywood portrayed it. I suppose to be fair its not the fault of the average American that he knows jack poo about the World its the fault of Hollywood and all the rest of the diatribe that has been fed into the American mind.

I admire your spirit, like the band playing on the deck of the Titanic you are doomed to go down with your ship.

Jerico, Ahah a niche in your armour, its no good crying over what is true and you know it. The point is here is that do you support the supposition that it may well be an American backed attack on a ship that is carrying Ruskie equipment and if so is the US in a position to start bear baiting.
A bear I may add thats got very big claws and even bigger teeth, at a time when the US is teetering on the brink of oblivion does this make sense to you. Or is it the last gasp of a dying demented soul that has fallen from grace into the pit of oblivion.

No we have a descending US and a rising Russia, the old games have started again but this time round its the Ruskies who are holding all the best cards and not NATO or the US. And the US is embroiled in 2 major conflicts that it cannot escape at the moment, plus the country is in what possibly 20 trillion in debt and like a drunken man swaying and stumbling down the street only needs a stone to trip over to fall straight onto his ass.
Are you slowly getting the picture or do I have to go and buy some crayons. The simple fact is that the brain of the US still thinks it controls the body only it does not and although the brain is still sending messages to the body the body is not responding. In simple terms those who control the US still think its like the cold war years and they have the upper hand but they dont anymore. So although they are still trying to play the old games there is no response from the body, is that a bit clearer now.
And the $64,000 question: What does this have to do with pirates?
