How Does 5 Somali Pirates On A 'Row=Row-Row Boat' Manages To Hijack A War Ship With 37 Tanks?

I often wonder the same thing. If I had anything to do with it, I would push for the arming of merchant vessels. I say let them protect themselves and then maybe the pirates will be forced to go and get a real job.

Scramble, that is a reasonable question. But reason, reality, has nothing to do with the situation. It costs money to protect a ship.

The insurance companies prefer to save money and put the crews at risk by not allowing them to be armed, preferring instead to pay the occasional insurance claim. It's all about money.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
