Excellent result,

In the words of Lance Corporal Jack Jones, 'They Don't Like It Up 'Em' and that in my opinion is just how it should be.

Re: Russian forces storm tanker captured by pirates
 

Fully agree. If the pirates are willing to carry arms and take hostages they should expect a swift and surgical response.

Re: Russian forces storm tanker captured by pirates
 

Yes, it'll be a tad colder than they're used to!

I'd be very surprised if ours and other countries special forces weren't already in Somalia gathering intel and taking action.

Re: Russian forces storm tanker captured by pirates
 

The effectiveness of the SF action was mostly thanks to the actions of the crew, disabling the ship and locking themselves away, so the only "targets" on board were the pirates.

Re: Russian forces storm tanker captured by pirates
 

xaccers you are probably right, good job all the same, other countries should take the same approach towards the pirates
