 Aye, they be e'erywhar,and some people in the world you just don't screw with. Unfortunately you can't always tell who those people be until tis' too late. Aye, the Wall Street and corporate scandals that began with Enron may be astonishin' for the scope and audacity o' their criminality, but they be not by any means unprecedented. In fact, Wall Street has been dogged by spectacular acts o' financial banditry since its earliest days. Gar We would ne'er glamorize criminals. We don't want any o' our young t' grow up t' rob or steal, at least not from us. Gar, Where can I find a bottle o'rum?

 Smart: try to slink away in a dinghy in the middle of the night. YouTube vid 4:14 MOGADISHU (AFP) - - The Somali pirates who captured an Ukrainian freighter carrying an arms shipment on Sunday demanded a ransom of 20 million dollars and confirmed that they have been surrounded by foreign warships, a spokesman for the pirates told AFP. "We have only demanded 20 million US dollars," the spokesman Sugule Ali said when contacted aboard the ship via a satellite telephone. "The crew are safe and not harmed; what we are waiting eagerly is the 20 million dollars nothing less, nothing more." He also said that "it is true we are surrounded by three foreign military vessels and there are some others we can see from a distance."

 You won't see this in our biased mainstream media - reminding us it is very much a dangerous world and ZerObama is not up to the job of Commander in Chief. He may talk the talk, but when it boils down to military action, this Hussein ZerObama isn't about to engage his fellow muslims. Beware this Trojan Horse.

 According to the German police, the men were not planning to hijack the plane, reports the Telegraaf. It was still unclear at press time what form of attack the suspects were planning, but the paper said they were not believed to be a threat to the Netherlands. One possibility is that the two men were planning to fly on to Africa. ( comment from Dutchnews.nl)

 France has gone further than any other nation in taking on the pirates. In another case in April, helicopter-borne French troops swooped in on Somali pirates, capturing six of them, after the hijackers released dozens of hostages who had been held on a yacht.

Mystery swirls around hijacked Iranian ship

 Within days, pirates who had boarded the ship developed strange health complications, skin burns and loss of hair. Independent sources tell The Long War Journal that a number of pirates have also died. In a strange twist, the Iranian press claims that the U.S. has offered to pay a $7 million bribe to the pirates to "receive entry permission and search the vessel." Officials in the Pentagon and the Department of State approached for this story refused to comment on the situation.

 David Shinn, a former US diplomat who teaches at the George Washington University, said fighters from the hardline al-Shabab militia were trying to assert their authority in order to force the Ethiopians out. They are trying "to show that they are in a position to perhaps even take control of Mogadishu if the Ethiopian forces were to leave", he told the BBC.

Thirty killed as Mogadishu is shelled

 Islamic militants with ties to al-Qaida have been fighting the government and its Ethiopian allies for control since their combined forces pushed the Islamists from the capital in December 2006. Within weeks of being driven out, the Islamists launched an Iraq-style insurgency that has killed thousands of civilians to date. In recent weeks, the militants appear to be gaining strength and sidelining the fragile government. The group, known as the Council of Islamic Courts, has taken over the port town of Kismayo, Somalia's third-largest city, and dismantled pro-government roadblocks. They also effectively closed the Mogadishu airport by threatening to attack any plane using it. "We keep recruiting new fighters to prepare them for the holy war against Ethiopian troops in our country and their Somali stooges," said Sheik Muhumed, a commander with al-Shabab, the group's military wing. The United States considers al-Shabab a terrorist group, raising fears Somalia could become a have

  Armed attacks on cargo ships, oil tankers and cruise ships are estimated to cost more than $1 billion a year, said Peter Chalk, a senior security analyst at Rand Corp. Piracy in Nigeria is leading to a drop in oil shipments because shipping companies are reluctant to risk ships, cargos and crew, he said, adding, “That has implications for U.S. strategic energy supplies.”

Markey (D-Mass) Global Warming Led To ‘Black Hawk Down’
merrie
by merrie  7-15-2008    2
 Markey was speaking to 25 students from the World Wildlife Fund's Allianz Southeast Climate Witness Program. The students had come to the Capitol to brief members of Congress on the risks of global warming. The students were from the Gulf States. Rep. Edward Markey (D-Mass.), chairman of the House (Select) Energy Independence and Global Warming Committee, also equated the drive for global warming legislation with the drive for women’s suffrage in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. “Yes, that part of the world is subject to drought at times, but it has very little to do with global warming,” said Ebell. (Myron Ebell, director of Energy and Global Warming Policy at CEI) “It is subject to drought whether the global average temperature is going up, down, or staying the same. To say you know the conflict was caused by global warming is to show how really ignorant you are of the scientific issues involved.”
