oh way to go Obama.

"This could escalate violence in this part of the world, no question about it," said Gortney, the commander of U.S. Naval Forces Central Command.

Abdullahi Lami, one of the pirates holding the Greek ship anchored in the Somali town of Gaan, said: "Every country will be treated the way it treats us. In the future, America will be the one mourning and crying," he told The Associated Press. "We will retaliate (for) the killings of our men."

Jamac Habeb, a 30-year-old self-proclaimed pirate, told the AP from one of Somalia's piracy hubs, Eyl, that: "From now on, if we capture foreign ships and their respective countries try to attack us, we will kill them (the hostages)."

"Now they became our number one enemy," Habeb said of U.S. forces.

Must feel strange acting proud of your country after so long.

I can't really see anything to complain about. It took a little while, but only pirates died and our hostage lived. A perfect rescue, like we're used to seeing in movies and on TV.

SD, > But bitter America haters like you and Longshort can only seethe in disappointment

Sounds like the liberals when Bush was in office.

If this pirate episode had happened with Bush, would liberals still be proud of the outcome?
