no honey u second lol

*especially in the oil rich waters of Nigeria which has been colonized by AMERICAN BUSINESSES.

no doubt 99.9% of the information in this post is lacking… cause i can’t imagine that little boat of pirates, with their sticks in hand, could jack a tanker with military supplies….lmao

i’d have to agree with Hollywood on this one.

Allll around the world same song….heeeeyyy.

co-sign Hollywood

LOL @ Hollywood BS

This is a sad affair yet all the comments have been hilarious.

I be robbing these n!$gas

Im a stick up kid

I’m a stick-up kid

That’s how I live I admit it

I be robbin’ these ni$$as

I’m a stick-up kid

And if you’re doing too much I’m coming to get it

Damn…i gotta round up some friends willing to help steal us a boat!!!!

Get that paper Somali gangsta!

If they can hustle up that many million with sticks and boats… I need to holla at them.. They got the pirate game on lock.

Now that’s gangsta. I swear them Africans do the damn thang, any means necessary for real.

BOM BOM SOMALIA.

ya dunnoe, we got that pirate game on lockDOWN lmao.

Ya’ll killin’ me talking about them using sticks to steal ships. LMAO Not hardly. They have automatic weapons, grenades, rocket launchers, etc. They even have a massive “mother ship” that carries the little speed boats that they use to pursue larger ships.

I agree that the continent of Africa’s resources have been pillaged by foreign entities, and the world economies have effectively blocked most African nations out of trade, thus making it hard for these nations to survive and nearly impossible to thrive. They have been put in rough situations with their backs against the wall. I don’t condone what they are doing, necessarily, but it is tough to say how to fix this mess because it’s so deep.

0MG..

REAL PiRATEz iN 2008??..

THEY’RE N0THiNG LiKE THE BACKYARDiGANs PiRATEz…

If you read more into the story, you will find that these somalian pirates are spending their money on BLING instead of helping the poor people of that country. Now that they have worldwide attention, the next thing to happen is not going to be good for them, because countries are now sending real war ships to protect their goods. And at the first sign of a highjacking they will become fish food.

I’ve read up on this because I found it interesting that they were able to capture a super tanker. Actually they say it is easier for them to capture big ships because of the size of the ships the pirates are un-noticed until your staring down the barrel of a big gun. Also they say that the pirates have been a huge boost in morale and financial prosperity for the people of Somalia especially where the base themselves. Citizens of Somalia say that because of the success of the pirates over the years that their communities have such stability with the likes of internet cafe’s, world renown clothing stores, more modern hospital’s, and even better facilities for the children of this country to learn in.

Africa has been the victim of exploitation for years. So I say take back yours Somalia.

This ‘aint gonna end well for the pirates…but it’ll probably spawn a movie or two.

Where the hell is my comment

ya’ll forgot black hawk down….woow even though i hate them i gotta say they GO bIG

I’ve been catching a few of these pirate heists reported on world news internet sites since 2005. And it looks like piracy never went extinct…it just evolved like every other criminal racket.

“Yaaarrr!! Give me the gas b!tch; shiver me timbers.” (switching to proper speaking voice”

“But you surely can reaquire your ship after further negotiation’s and monetary funds are approximated. Thanks for your cooperation and I look forward to hearing from ya’.”

One of the interesting facts that I came across is that the pirates accomodate their hostage’s with western style cuisine made by chef’s that they hire to serve the “guests” until they are bought back through ransom. That is a pretty classy operation they got going there based on that account. Sweet.

I wonder if their hiring? I’m so tired of this office sh!t??

Could someone decifer guttersnipes comments, I don’t speak somali ghetto?

There are two sides to every story although it is criminal to hijack ships. There is another linked story that does underreported.

Ever since the civil war started in Somalia (1991), the Somali navy has been defunct. Foreign fishing trawlers often from industrialized nations have been illegally fishing in Somali waters. There has also been large scale dumping of toxic waste again from industrialized nations in Somali waters. This had negatively affected Somali fishing communities which saw their livelihoods destroyed.

Some fishermen took action and attacked the ships that were illegally fishing on the Somali coast.

Now due to overfishing and the toxic waste that was dumped in the coast there no work for these fishermen and their environment is destroyed.

This story can be spinned anyway the media wants. But have you ever wondered where nuclear and other toxic waste goes to?

Let’s hope that these ‘pirate’ attacks focus attention on the cause of this problem.

“I wish a m.f.er would….”

@BLACK ELVIS:

Never thought about that…sounds plausible.

It’s not like Somalia could even form an organized

response to let the world know…If what you’re saying is true.Large multi-nationals do have a history of polluting in the place of least resistance.

Heres what they should do,

start repo’n every 7/11 in america because everybody knows samalian mofo’s own those and we dont know where the original investment came from.

Go to every airport and round up all the parking attendants and the people who check all the luggage, those are all somalians.

Just start blastin’ them large forehead havin’ n*ggas before the reach the ship.

wow, at first wen all this news was reported i was SO ashamed 2 b a somali..lol!

What the somalians are doing is no different than what the jackboys and dopedealers are doing here in america. We need jobs, they need jobs and you can’t expect people that have family to support to just sit on their ass and wait on a handout. My heart goes out to their families cause this is not gonna have a good ending.

Ohh I see you dont know about “THE STICK” that Stick is more powerfull than anything they packing on that boat.

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE MIGHTY STICK !!!!!

I am so happy to hear this story…. @ Somali Power …You’re dumb (English) asdkfa;ierfa;kjf (somali translation), pinche pendejo (Spanish)

What is wrong with y’all????? Have you not heard there is a fincancial crises in the world, the credit crunch is killing the Somalians so they gats to hit hu the nearest cash point hence the hijacks…lol

Pirates in 2008? Fasinating…

Channeling Captain Blackbeard….

@Emla Alresa… you are welcome to take your ass to your “Land of Poets” , Kandahar, or Bagdad and STAY. Stop hating on the United States while reaping all of our benefits of living in my country. I’ve been to Afghanistan & Iraq and you’d thank God you live in US. Stop hatin’

They’re just trying to eat.

Just because we’re poor doesnt mean we’re dead yet,so they shouldnt be fishing in our waters and dumping their waste on us. I love my Somali people because we see and opportunity and go for it. Its a nice way to make a killing. They havent killed anyone as a result (YET). So let them do them. And for the person that claims they spent it on “bling”,your DONEE!

you know nothing about Somalia and our situation.

Sorry to . over there but……

African Americans SUCK ASSSSS!

BIG TIMEEE

“Random Ridiculousness”…lol…love that Headline.

there is no such thing as Somalians.

We are Somali.

Please and thank you.

So…So…Somalia!!! Anotha Day Anotha Dolla!

So….So…Somalia! Anotha Day Anotha Dolla!

looooooooooooooooool Somaliaaaa stand up

Ya’ll are looking at the dude with the stick, I am looking at the dude sitting next to him with the rocket launcher.

Don’t try and gloss this up and make it seem like these guys are Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor….because if you’ve done any research about this you’d know that is not the case.

They are straight out thieves. They are buying big houses, cars, and bling just like someone mentioned above. They bribe and use terror against those who may oppose them. They’ve created a culture of stealing that has girls wanting a pirate boyfriend and young boys wanting to grow up to be pirates. Where’s the future in that?

This isn’t about Somali nationalism or black power.
