French Navy at it again!
« on: April 16, 2009, 03:57:30 AM »
Now they're taking out motherships.

WTG France.  Where the **** is the Royal Navy in all this?  Oh yeah, I forgot, Brown has left us with a motor driven bathtub and a few subs which like running into things.

If the UN had any brains at all, they would use the pirates to bring the nations together.

No nation is going to support the Somali pirates and it can encourage dialog between the nations.

Do you think the UN is some sort of independent political entity? How exactly could the UN do what you propose? Just curious.

"The Nivose is part of an eight-ship anti-piracy task force from France, Germany, Spain and Italy sailing under the EU banner.

French foreign ministry spokesman Romain Nadal said more European nations would soon join the force..."


A budding EU Navy?

Makes sense as not all EU members are NATO members.

We are also sending a frigate down there in august under the same EU flag but we are not members of EU but we are members of NATO. Doesnt matter though. Job is the same and so are command and control systems.

Im very angry though, because the Swiss navy sais they "cant" contribute  :mad:

You mean they aren't? Anyone that allows Iran, North Korea, and (in the past) Iraq to do whatever they want in violation of international treaties in exchange for money is definitely a political organization.

Both condemn and pass a resolution against the pirating being done, like anything else the UN has passed it won't have any teeth, but it may encourage at least a couple countries to start cooperating again.
