Pirates Vow Revenge

[red states rule]

I wonder what kind of revenge they have in mind.

Obama may calm their anger by apologizing for America's arrogance and it's "regrettable" use of force.

The pirates will then love us.

PIRATES VOW REVENGE

Obama, spared from having another thorny foreign policy crisis added to his troubles with the U.S. economic meltdown and the war in Afghanistan, welcomed the rescue, praised the U.S. military and vowed to curb rampant piracy.

"To achieve that goal, we must continue to work with our partners to prevent future attacks, be prepared to interdict acts of piracy and ensure that those who commit acts of piracy are held accountable for their crimes," he said in a statement.

The White House issued a time line that showed Obama received frequent updates on the crisis and on Friday and Saturday gave the Pentagon policy guidance authorities to allow U.S. forces to take emergency actions.

Somali pirates were quick to vow revenge over the shooting of their comrades, as well as a French military assault to rescue a yacht on Friday.

"The French and the Americans will regret starting this killing. We do not kill, but take only ransom. We shall do something to anyone we see as French or American from now," Hussein, a pirate, told Reuters by satellite phone.

OK, just as President Bush was creating “new terrorists” in Iraq, Obama is creating new pirates by his political failures.

Not giving negotiations a chance and by failing to get our Allies on board before going in guns blazing, he has given the pirates their greatest recruiting tool.

Obama failed to go to the United Nations for approval. He failed to consult our allies and instead, decided to force our already strapped military to act unilaterally.

Please, don’t use our troops to fight an illegal war in Africa.

Just like the Barbary Pirates, there are Muslims. I've read that al Queda has tried to infiltrate the area, all the more reason that the pirates must be dealt with.

Kat, please. I thought you were better then this

Somalia never attacked the United States.

The Pirates were murdered without being given opportunity to have their day in court. Their Constitutional rights were violated!

This was a Law Enforcement issue and Obama turned it into a Chicago Style gang shootout.

:laugh2:

Obama lied, pirates died! Obama lied, pirates died! Obama lied, pirates died!

Upon further reflection and counsel from a friend the slogan has changed too.

Pirates Died, Obama Cried!
Pirates Died, Obama Cried!
Pirates Died, Obama Cried!

It is always nice to use the lefts talking points against them

pirates aren't terrorists, they are criminals. America has a long and storied history of dealing harshly with pirates.

"to the shores of Tripoli"

"America cannot solve the most pressing problems on our own, and the world cannot solve them without America, I believe American leadership has been wanting, but is still wanted...We must use what has been called `smart power,' the full range of tools at our disposal. With `smart power,' diplomacy will be the vanguard of foreign policy." -- Hillary R Clinton, the Voice in the Wilderness

If Sec of State Hillary calls for a new strategy and no one in the Administration listens, did she ever really call for "Smart Diplomacy" in the first place?

"to the shores of Tripoli" You obviously have no knowledge of naval history.

Back to the topic at hand, there is a simple answer to this problem

Obama and the Dems can give them amnesty, and a path to citizanship. Then they can get their drivers license and register to vote (for Dems of course)

They will pay taxes and thus put an end to off shore accounts

After all, they are doing the jobs US citizens will not do
