25. I wonder if anyone considered attacking the source of the problem, instead of treating the symptom

.

Sorta reminds me of when I was a kid,

instead of changing my diet,

I used this pink shit to cover up blemishes from eating too much sugar shit.

Somalia is poor - MAJOR poor.

If the shipping companies, military that are patrolling would use half the $$$ they are spending in ransoms, insurance, military budgets and so on to provide development of viable incomes in Somalia -

they wouldn't feel the NEED to have these pirates around.

But we seem to believe that bullets and bombs fix everything.

So it will remain the same as it has for millenniums - we just keep trying to kill those that we disagree with.

Collateral damage be damned . . .

(sigh)
