6. After what happened today, Rule 303 looks pretty good to me

I am glad American troops are following orders and taking prisoners, but given that the new Somali pirate SOP is no live hostages returned if they are intercepted, invoking rule 303 or its Russian equivalent sounds pretty good to me today. I will calm down and might even wish I had not made this post, but I am seriously hot about this today.

Russians sink pirate mother ship: http://www.youtube.com/verify_age?next_url=http%3A//www.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3D258IaqOEqAY%26feature%3Dplayer_embedded

Destroy some mother ships and sink the skiffs and the problem would be greatly reduced...
