The French navy has captured several Somali pirates who attacked
their warship overnight, a French official said Wednesday.
 
The pirates tried this in May as well. Don't they learn?
 
Ok! So I have a AK47 and a 9mm pistol. Ooh, I know!! Let's attack a boat. NO! Not a boat, a ship. Oooh wait. Let's attack a WAR SHIP. They wont have anything to fight back with.

Blerry morons. :eek:
 
Or "goldfish syndrome", or simply don't have the mental capacity to realize that they shouldn't do that.

I would go with them being retarded :D

Attacking a war ship is not ballsey, it is down right stupid.

It is like attacking a body builder when you are skinny as a rake and much shorter, some may think you have balls others know you are stupid :D.

Why capture them? Just ****ing blow them up or sink them. Treat them as hostile terrorists seeing they are the same thing.
 
This story was bound to end with the waving of a little white flag. Just wasn't sure who'd be doing the waving. :D

I kid. I kid. :p
 
SEALs free U.S. hostage, kill 3 pirates

This outcome was far better.

SEALs free U.S. hostage, kill 3 pirates

Nairobi, Kenya — Navy Seal snipers on the fantail of a destroyer cut down three Somali pirates in a lifeboat and rescued an American sea captain on Easter Sunday. The surprise nighttime assault in choppy seas ended a five-day standoff between a team of rogue gunmen and the world’s most powerful military.

It was a stunning conclusion to an Indian Ocean odyssey that began when 53-year-old freighter Capt. Richard Phillips was taken hostage Wednesday by pirates who tried to hijack the U.S.-flagged Maersk Alabama. The Vermont native was held on a tiny lifeboat that began drifting precariously toward Somalia’s anarchic, gun-plagued shores.

The operation, personally approved by President Barack Obama, quashed fears the saga could drag on for months and marked a victory for the U.S., which for days seemed powerless to resolve the crisis despite massing helicopter-equipped warships at the scene.
 
They must do what the Brits did WW2. Put hidden guns on normal cargo ships and when the pirates aproach reveal the weapon and blow them away.

Something like this
