"Piracy Off The Promised Land
Wide publicity has been given to piracy in Somalian waters since Captain Phillips of the American crewed Maersk Alabama was captured. The arrival of a US missile cruiser and US destroyer added the tension and glamour required by the Hollywood confederation. The killing of three young Somalians and the release of the captain provided the blood and the triumph for the star spattered banner.
Why is it that little is heard of the piracy off the coast of the Zionist entity and the strip it dominates called Gaza? In contrast to the actions of young Muslim fishermen from an impoverished and broken Somalian nation, the entity carries out its piracy under the title of the Israeli Occupation Force, out of a country with the greatest wealth and with the pretence of a fully fledged legal system."
Good point.

Now for the agenda-pushing MSM bullshit shovel:
NAIROBI - Somali pirates in speedboats opened fire yesterday on two cargo ships in the latest hijacking attempts in the Gulf of Aden, while another band of brigands freed a food aid freighter but only after receiving a $100,000 payment from Somali businessmen.
The latest attack occurred at midday when pirates fired shots at a Chinese-owned, Panama-flagged cargo ship, the MV New Legend Honor, said Commander Chris Davies, from NATO's maritime headquarters in England. Two NATO warships - one Canadian, the other British - scrambled helicopters in defense, Davies said. No damage was reported to the cargo ship and the pirates escaped.
Also yesterday, in a separate predawn attack, pirates fired rockets at the Maltese-flagged MV Atlantica about 30 miles off Yemen's coast, a NATO spokesman said.... NATO forces have helped fend off several attacks in recent days, but have released the culprits because they had no jurisdiction to arrest them. In some cases, neither the pirates nor their targets were nationals of NATO countries.
Since when has that ever fucking mattered, huh? What stinks, folks?
In Washington, US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Dutch Foreign Minister Maxime Verhagen met yesterday and said they will seek authority for NATO to arrest pirates.
The UN announced yesterday that pirates had released one ship, the Lebanese-owned MV Sea Horse. The Togo-flagged ship was captured April 14 with 19 crew members as it headed to India to pick up more than 7,000 tons of UN food destined for hungry Somalis.
Yeah, it's always food shipments, never weapons.
Think I'm believing them, readers?
But the release was not just a humanitarian gesture. Pirates let the Sea Horse go after two Dubai-based Somali businessmen intervened and paid off the pirates, said Somali clan elder Abdisalan Khalif Ahmed. A man who identified himself as Muhidin Abdulle Nur and claimed to be part of the gang that seized the freighter said the businessmen had paid "a reward" of $100,000 on Sunday.
The UN's World Food Program denied knowledge of a ransom being paid, but ships are often freed only their owners pay substantial ransoms.
So what, the U.N. is LYING? Noooooooooooo?!!!!!

Of course, NOT EVERY PIRATE is RELEASED -- which makes this stink even more, folks!!!
"Somali piracy suspect to be tried as adult" by Associated Press | April 22, 2009
NEW YORK - .... The decision by the US to bring Muse to justice here has thrust the skinny teenager into the international spotlight , and raised legal questions about whether the United States is going too far in trying to make an example of someone so young.
Just wondering why this other child didn't or doesn't get the same concern. and please don't cite the inside job of 9/11.
Go tell that to NATO.
