We should treat Somalis as terrorists!

They have held Captain Richard Phillips captive, threaten Congressman, held ships on the high seas impeding int'l trade in the Gulf of Aden, and have promised retaliations.

Personally, I would have them tried as terrorists and have the ROE against them be take captives or shoot on sight if the forces are at risk.  These guys are strict Wahabis and are terrorists.  Anyone remember Black Hawk Down?

 

the pirates are terrorists you mean? not all somalis?  Exactly.  Not all Somalis are on the high seas either and have families to tend to and are peaceful.  The problem is, however, with child soldiers and the tension that creates as you can imagine.

black hawk down was one of the worst films ive ever seen in my life.  The reason I bring this up is become it is extremely relative to a future or plausible conflict arising out of this sit.
