They should've read the book.
http://true-turtle.livejournal.com/85315.htmlThis videotape shows Russian Navy commandos on a Somalian pirate ship
shortly after the pirates had captured a Russian oil tanker.
The Euro Union navy that patrols these waters would not interfere
because they feared there could be casualties.
The soldiers freed their compatriots and the tanker. The Russian Navy
Commandos moved the pirates back to their own pirate ship, searched the
pirate ship for weapons and explosives, and then they left the ship and
exploded it with all remaining pirates hand-cuffed to it.
The commandos sank the pirate ship along with the pirates and without
any court proceedings, lawyers etc.
I got no problem with that.
