How To Handle Somali Pirates

The Russians know how:



Further explanation:

RUSSIAN NAVY CAPTURES SOMALI PIRATES

How about that – the Russians captured the pirates, tied them up, put them on the boats, then set them all on fire – puff, no more pirates. All quite logical and simple.

This video shows Russian Navy commandos on a Somalian pirate ship shortly after the pirates had captured a Russian oil tanker. Tsk tsk. Wrong country to, apparently, screw with.

The Euro Union navy that patrols these waters would not interfere because they feared there could be “casualties.”

All explanations are in Russian with the single exception of when a wounded pirate says something in English and the Russian soldier says “This is not a fishing boat.” All conversations between the commandos are in Russian. If you don’t understand Russian, the pictures speak for themselves.

The soldiers freed their compatriots and the tanker. The Russian Navy Commandos moved the pirates back to their own (pirate) ship, searched the pirate ship for weapons and explosives, documented the guns and rifles with video, and then left the ship and exploded it with all remaining pirates hand-cuffed on board.

The commandos sank the pirate ship along with the pirates and without any bothersome court proceedings, lawyers, hearings etc. That is, they used the anti-piracy laws of the 18th and 19th centuries where the captain of a rescuing ship can decide what to do with pirates. Usually, they were hanged. In this case, some high-order explosives worked quite effectively.

  1. That video should be required viewing for all Somali kids.

    Violent, gruesome, and terrible… And I applaud it. Good for the Ruskies! Hopefully when the rest of the world sees that Russian freighters are no longer being targeted by these back-water sewer rats other countries will grow a pair and start taking similar actions to deal with the issue.

    It was awfully nice of them to give the wounded guy something to rest his head on before they blew him to kingdom come.

  2. Russians. Crude but effective. 9/30/85 Hezbollah kidnapped four Russian diplomats in Lebanon. They killed one, Arkandy Katkov. A few weeks later, the remaining three were released.

    An acquaintance tells me the KGB learned the names of the kidnappers. They proceeded to grab every male they could find who was related to the kidnappers (he says around 24). The KGB castrated every one and then let them loose.

    When was the last time we heard of a Russian diplomat being harmed?

  3. But the PC among us will cry, rants, rave, tear out their hair and have an all around *hissy fit* because the Somalis got EXACTLY what they deserved…

    This is what needs to happen in many parts of the world, every time al-Qaida or the Taliban attack, exact revenge 20 times over, on camera, and make a YouTube!

  4. That was beautiful and I commend the Russian Spetznats Special Forces for their prompt and efficient eradication of the Somali Pirates.

    Unfortunately, the Somalis will never learn due to their chimpanzee brains and reasoning powers.
    So, eliminate them all, the Somali pirates.
    Take note Obama, these are your blood relatives!!!!!! HAAAAAAAA
