Maybe this will get sorted now that 20 yanks have been taken !
See... For all the whining the world does about the USA the above statement demonstrates a very sad point. Numerous countries have had ships taken. Several, (if not all), have paid ransom to get their ships back. None, have done anything to get their ship or people back that would ensure the behaviour does not continue. They have all chickened out waiting for the Yanks to suffer a loss and have them do something about it. But if the USA had stepped forward before all we would have heard would have been the shrill whine of "Old Europe", tutting and clucking about how America should stop being a bully.
