I am hoping that they kill these pirates. I know the captain escaped for a short time but the navy was asleep and did not react soon enough. I am sure that any other pirates will soon be taken care of and we will not have top hear about them after this. At least that is my hope.
That's too bad. I don't know why they haven't sent out some Navy seals to get it over with. The other thing I don't get is why the FBI is in this. No one in the Navy knows how to negotiate the release of hostages?
