Pirates foiled. Crew regains control of ship.

Pirates struck again in the Indian Ocean yesterday. A Maersk Line cargo ship, delivering food aid to Kenya was attacked by pirates armed with AK-47 rifles.

The unarmed crew subdued one of the pirates, taking him hostage. The other pirates retreated, taking the captain of the ship and one lifeboat. The crew regained control of their ship within 24 hours of the attack.


I didn't have to mention that the crew was American, did I?

Now, is President Obama going to follow in the footsteps of President Jefferson or President Carter?
