Have you seen what the Press calls speed boats? These aren't
ChrisCrafts. Put a big enugh engine on a dory and it's a speed boat.




Seals swim in from sub at 0300 local and quietly burn 1" hole in bottom of
lifeboat then simply swim away. Panic ensues as lifeboat sinks for unknown
reasons. As pirates swim away Seals simply sink them one at a time, saving
ears, of course, like they did in 'Nam, all filmed by special Aljazeera
news crew with infrared cams offered free by US gummit to show other
pirates with sat TV/internet back on land. When last pirate jumps
overboard Seals waiting under lifeboat inflate floatation ring before tied
up captain drowns inside lifeboat.

I bet Seals have underwater torches you can't even hear burning steel right
in front of you.

Taxpayers probably paid $10,000 each for them....dammit.

If you think CIA spooks are scary, it's because you've never met a real
US Navy SEAL.

SEALs present ears to astonished Aljazeera on-camera talking head while
staring into camera telling others watching their ear collection needs
expanding....

This place would make a great "practice zone" for testing and training.
Someone ashore knows who these pirates are and what boats they use. SEALS
could take them out and noone would have any idea who it was.

A tax on shipping companies to pay for it would be nice, but I wouldn't
hold my breath....
