    Russian marines storm hijacked oil tanker

    IMO this is the only way to deal with the pirates.

    Good Job Russians!

    Well, good for Russia! Too bad draqon isn't around to carry on about it.

    But to be direct, how is this different from the normal way of dealing with pirates? I admit I know little about the piracy situation these days.

    15 years???:bugeye:

    Have the Russians gotten all bleeding hearty and soft in their old age?

    The tanker had a safe room, and a control to disable the ship.
    Good ideas.

    Yeah, I saw that. You would think it would be extremely cost effective to add those to all ships that pass through endangering water.

    In the winter they wouldn't even need to keep them locked in. I'm sure they wouldn't wander far... for long

    15 years is a Russian prison as what 30 times the average life expentancy in a Russian prison? If you survive 15 years in a Russian prison year either a highlander or have metaphorically won the lottery.
