Oooooooooooooooo Now it is time to carpet bomb the entire Somali shoreline!
These guys should be treated just the same other Terrorists. NO MERCY!
I didnt hear about this story. I am gonna hafta google it to find out more
Just got the read this on Fox.
The whole story here.Arlington, Va. -- Captain Richard Phillips is now safe and healthy aboard the USS Boxer after Navy Seals launched a rescue attempt that ended when snipers killed three pirates in three shots, all direct hits to the head.
Vice Admiral William Gortney, Commander of Navy's 5th Fleet, told journalists at the Pentagon Sunday evening a decision was made to take the shots after the pirates were spotted pointing an AK-47 into the back of Captain Phillips.
As soon as the shots were fired, Navy Seals "scurried down" a tow line attached to the lifeboat, and were the first to get to Phillips. They surveyed the scene and found three dead pirates. Phillips was alive, although tied up.
The fourth pirate, who is now in U.S. custody, left the lifeboat hours earlier with the understanding he would negotiate from on board the USS Bainbridge, the massive Navy destroyer that shadowed the lifeboat for several days.
......
But sometime soon after the boats were hooked together, shots were fired from the lifeboat and the pirates were seen holding a gun to Captain Phillips back. Acting on a standing order from President Obama to move in when Phillips was in "imminent danger" snipers were ordered to fire.
They established clear head shots on all three pirates. One of the pirates was visible through the front window, and the other two were revealing their heads through the top hatch, presumably to get fresh air. It would be their last breath.

What are these Pirates thinking??? Seriously! That USS Boxer is a MONSTER ship! Its like a whole Naval floatilia by itself, Aircraft, Helicopters, Boats, a Medical Hospital, US Marines and OBVIOUSLY Navy Seals. Why would anyone on God's green earth think they were gonna get of that situation lol. Dumbarses!!! I am glad to see Obama has a "pair" to order such a hit!!!! Still don't trust him, but he did move a notch in my book
