Rus: In the immortal words of Bill the Cat: Pffft! Not what I was saying at all.
Someone walks into your house and puts a gun in your face, you have the right to defend yourself.
Before you get all Karen Carpenter on me, realize this: Those Somali pirates were hijacking an aid ship with food for starving Africans. I don’t know how you’d turn that around into an anti-American rant, but feel free.
The notion that they’re out there hijacking ships solely to help their families is laughable, and no more believable than the notion that their land based brethren were hijacking humanitarian aid for the same reason when we intervened in 1993.
Of course, it’s so much more simple to just blame the big, bad old U.S. of A for all the world’s ills, isn’t it? You know we made Kim Jong-il fire that missile, right?
