Today’s Box Score: Indians 23, Pirates 0

Posted on December 14, 2008

Couldn’t resist snagging that headline from FARK

The Indian navy captured 23 pirates who threatened a merchant vessel Saturday in the lawless waters of the Gulf of Aden, where dozens of ships have come under attack by gunmen in recent months.

The pirates were from Somalia and Yemen, two countries on the coast of the Gulf of Aden.

Apparently, Condi Rice will present a resolution to the UN Security Council next week to take all appropriate measures. I’m thinking it will get watered down to “yell bad words at the pirates.” Let the Indians handle it. They seem to have some cajones.

    This would be a much better story if the word “captured” was “killed” in the headline…

    I vastly prefer, “Hung from the yardarm”…
