Somali Piracy, Navy SEALs and Strategic Naval Presence
Pirates captured a Belgian ship off the coast of Somalia, adding to a string of high-seas hijackings. The hosts speculate that the pirate crisis is being used as a pretext to build up a permanent NATO naval force in the region. They discuss the rescue of an American captain by Navy SEAL sharpshooters and the subsequent transfer of pirates to Kenya for prosecution.
