Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum
Moslem Pirates don't get none.
The picture (r) shows the pirate activity off the coast of Somalia in 2007 which is up 20% in the first three months of 2008. Busy little buggers, eh?
It's definitely getting hot down there. It's interesting to note that the Dutch government took over for Denmark and began escorting the UN relief ships early this month.
Is it time for security on board ships traversing this shipping lane? Or is it time to just go in there and clean effing pirate house?
I vote for both.
