For that much money I could have really had a nice setup. I could have bought 7 really nice fast attack boats with a 20mm bow gun and a stern quad 50.Raymarine 40mile radar and nautical GPS. As long as they come 25 miles off shore they are in international waters and all bets are off.As far as fireing on a likely fishing boat if they dont hail the cautions a warning shot across the bow and then all hell breaks loose. Of course all of this would be recorded video and audio to protect ourselves.Oh of course an old amphibiuos ship to base ourselve complimentary of the client. Contact me Ill do it put me back to work.

“cant spell the name but where that old American fella in a wheel chair was pushed over board by some raving lunitic/jihadi (who was given safe haven in Iraq by Saddam too??)“
Just for the record, the name you are seeking is Leon Klinghoffer, whose tragic story is summed up briefly but accurately, as far as I can tell, at Wikipedia. The mastermind of the attack, Abu Abbas, was captured in Iraq in 2003 and died in American custody in 2004. I do not see enough information in the news to say for sure whether Saddam was harboring him or not.
The actual shooter was Youssef Magied al-Molqi, who escaped custody after being allowed a brief furlong for good behavior, but it seems that he was caught and put back in prison.
As for the original posting, label it as the latest in a long line of reasons why PMCs and their hiring needs to be better regulated than it is.

I’m wondering how insurance premiums would be affected for US flag carriers were they to invest in a moderate armament suite on vessels sailing in high-risk area. Nothing earthshaking, perhaps a brace of pintle mounted heavy machine guns with day/night sights and an arms locker with a supply of small arms and training for the ships crew.

Let’s look back in history, the 1804 Barbary Pirates War. Send in the MARINES.

‘But who hired Top Cat, in the first place?’ good question — hell i don’t know but good job they did as someone needs to sink those clowns before they end up injuring and killing alot of innocent people just looking to have a nice holiday or go about a days work. I’d hate to see another inncident like on that cruise ship — cant spell the name but where that old American fella in a wheel chair was pushed over board by some raving lunitic/jihadi (who was given safe haven in Iraq by Saddam too??) type who. Sonic protection weapons seem pretty good but what if the eneamy has counter measures — ie ear muffs? the crews of these big boats need arming or acess to very swift respone teams. Helo’s or light planes would seem like a good idea too.

Good Afternoon Folks,
Maybe it’s time to start reflag these ships as what they are American and create “Sea Marshalls”.
Freedom of the seas is a basic right and the primary mission of the U.S. Navy. This just might be a job for the new “Navy Expeditionary Command” to tackle.
ALLONS,
Byron Skinner
