They should have sank the mothership. IMO

I agree and they shouldn't have let them go considering that they are pirates.

also I've read about it on the net, that people can go on a pirate adventure criuse ship that takes you down "pirate alley" and they have all sorts of weapons you can rent out including RPGs and mini-guns. they say you won't get in any trouble for killing a pirate.

Wow!
Sadly, Germany has totally different stance on piratery...
Here's an article about it from a german paper:
http://www.welt.de/politik/article3325218/Wohin-mit-den-gefangenen-somalischen-Piraten.html
The title says it all: 'Where to with the caught somalian pirates'
There was a case when a german warship caught 9 pirates. They actually got taken to Hamburg for being tried in court there.
The german government is trying to get a third country in Africa to do that for us.
As they are seen as civil people rather than military fighters, they can't be just shor down, as we have no death sentence. And if they are no real threat to a warship, soldiers cannot just open fire on pirate ships.
Germany spends 31.000 Euro per foreign prisoner per year, a total of 431.000.000 Euro in 2006. Mind you, for prisoners who do not have a german passport and in my opinion have no reason to be in the country after not accepting our laws in most cases.
Man we need to change some things soon.

I think so too. Keep the skiffs and destroy the mother-ship.

Yes. And all the sailors must be at least 6 ft tall so when their ship sinks, they can walk back to shore.
Yeah, put me down for destroying the mothership as well. I mean you take that down and they'll be out of commission for a while, destroy a couple dingies and they could be back at it the next day.
And -30 for sheer stupidity.The pirates get +10 for sheer balls.
I hear there's a place in Cuba that's still taking new tennants.
Nah, they should have been sent to the best jails.
Well, that's the Dutch for you!
Bloody Dutch!

Careful how you speak about the Dutch. I hear they're quite vengeful creatures. Who do you think came up with the "Dutch Oven"?
I hear that the reason we don't just shoot pirates on sight, and often just let them go unless caught red-handed with hostages, is that the pirate groups are seen as a counter to some of the terrorist groups that have been popping up in Somalia. Terrorists and pirates don't like each other much apparently. Which makes sense I guess, since the pirates are only concerned with profits, and if they were to work with Al Qaeda they figure they'd never see another ransom payment.
