The negotiations should go like this.

USA: Our terms are you have 2 hours to return the Captain of the US

I agree with this post....

Are you both willing to honor the implied contract that if they release
the captain, they won't die?
Are you willing to knowingly and willingly sacrifice the hostage?

Put the additional item in there that we will go into your home towns and
kill your families also. Not legal, but they understand that part about
killing the relatives as it is done by themselves.

You've all missed the point. Bush exuded the impression that if you
mess with the USA, that he was crazy enough to stomp you regardless of
consequences.
Obama gives the impression of "Please dont hit me, I'll give you my
lunch money". His bow to the Saudi King was a clear indication of no
action toward pirates.

The jury is still out in my mind. I'll wait to see what the final outcome
of this mess is.
Right now I think he is doing the right thing by not delivering threats,
etc.
If the hostage is finally released and no further action is taken against
the pirates or where they came from, my opinion will probably change.
