More world reality.

The video tape below shows Russian Navy commandos on a Somalian pirate ship shortly after the pirates had captured a Russian oil tanker.

The Euro Union navy that patrols these waters would not interfere because they feared there could be casualties.

So the Russian Navy Commandos freed their compatriots and the tanker, and then moved the pirates back to their own pirate ship.  The Russians searched the pirate ship for weapons and explosives, and found plenty! And then they left the ship and exploded it with all remaining pirates hand-cuffed to it.

Yes, the commandos sank the pirate ship along with the pirates and without any court proceedings, lawyers, etc
.  They used the anti-piracy laws of the 18th and 19th centuries where the captain of the rescuing ship has the right to decide what to do with the pirates.   Usually, they were hanged.

Something like that, although the description about finding lots of weapons and explosives on the pirates boat, is from 2009 incident ha!

Jimmy, this is the video posted in the OP

it was uploaded a couple of days after the MV Moscow University tanker was hijacked.


Yes, the same as the link and the embedded ones I posted. The only difference is who posted them, but they are the same exact videos.

 

Tanker was hijacked, the crew fought them off (no details on how they did that), and the Russian navy captain tracked them down. And nowhere in them do they show them being handcuffed to the ship before blowing it up.

Hang on.....The 2009 tanker was not hijacked.   The 2010 was.

I don't see much of a difference between an attempted hijacking and a hijacking as far as what my response would be protecting those waters.

 

But I have noticed each time I clicked the link in the OP my computer has trouble and I have to "clean" it out.

Fair enough, I agree in that respect.  (I'm still preoccupied with the fact that the video in  the op does not match the info posted in the op...I think......)
