"The gun-toting, seafaring thieves, who routinely pounce on cargo ships bobbing along on the Indian Ocean, suddenly found themselves in command of a vessel crammed with $30 million worth of grenade launchers, piles of ammunition, even battle tanks."

They got 30 million in Weapons. These pirates are crazy. Russia is and the Ukrainians are going to want these.

Laascanood and Somaliland is doomed?
In the 80s SNM vs Fagash war, Ahmed Saleeban Dafle armed the Dhulbahante geeljires with latest American M16. The Habarjeclo with their old AK47 focked them up and the Dhulous cried "Ahmedow Dhici waa qorigii" LOOOL

So, in the heat of the battlefields it is not the type and model of the gun but rather the man behind that gun that counts.

In any case, this military shipment belongs to Kenya and Kenya being the surrogates of the Yey TFG, they will have little problem getting their shipments delivered. That is unless the Russians go in first.

I heard that this shipment was illegally bieng sent to the SPLF in Sudan,
The SPLF are not a country and cannot get export licenses,
this was an arms smuggling case bieng routed through Kenya..

The pirates should sell it to the SUDANESE government.



sadly , we know who is behind the christian south,
The CIA, Isreal and Saudi Arabia...

this was probably a private sale between the SPLF and a private arms trader.
and the SPLF simply used thier contacts.

Gurey,

The Kenyans will get their equipment because they will pressure Abdullahi Yusuf to ensure that it got released or the TFG & its leaders will become persona na gratis in the Nairobi, the TFG's home away from home.

wrong again Kenya does not support the SPLA infact kenya made the SLPA sign the peace treaty. kenya has intercepted arms to SPLA once before, besides a shipment of arms to SPLA would be a violation of the peace treaty.

you cant deny that youve all been allied with the SPLA against khartoum,
You Ethiopia and Eritrea and Uganda have been ganging up on Khatoum for decades,

and youve been supported by the US and Isreal and Saudi Arabia (discreetly behind the scenes)

Each Soviet-designed T-72 tank weighs more than 80,000 pounds. The pirates would need special know-how, not,to mention special equipment, to unload them - assuming, of course, that they could make it to port with the Navy on their tail.



http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/27/world ... ref=slogin


As I said, they should play it smart, bring the ship undercover to Kismanyo port, strike some sort of deal and then sell it to a country or group willing to pay millions of $.

If you cant find a big spender, unload them and sell them to highest bidder in Somalia :lol:

Guys i have breaking news, the pirates have taken the ship away from Puntland and into Galmudug in the port city of Haradhere.

The area falls under UIC influence, the cargo if we are lucky could end up in the hands of the somali liberation forces. :somalia:

That Cargo should be immediatley sneeked into Kismayoo and hidden away in somalia for us to begin to train to use the tanks and the other anti-aircraft equipment.

The Russians should smartly use this oppertunity to allow the cargo to fall in the hands of somali forces.
