- doublefelix, on 11/27/2008, -1/+62That's pretty cool. They should drop a tool bag on them or something.
- inactive, on 11/27/2008, -0/+55This is the Internet, it's really not that hard ;-)
- AmnesiacJack, on 11/27/2008, -2/+50Japan needs to send some ninjas so we can have an epic battle the likes of which haven't been seen since the
- AuTigerfan, on 11/27/2008, -4/+44I wanna be a pirate so bad.
- GuacamoleSan, on 11/27/2008, -0/+38zombie uprising of 1823
- madfastride, on 11/27/2008, -3/+31I don't understand why a neighbooring country doesn't just send some navy ships out there and settle this
- npsken, on 11/27/2008, -0/+26Because if they screw up in the slightest tons of oil will spill into the ocean.
And I doubt they care about the environment... it's just how much money the oil is worth. - katatoniq, on 11/27/2008, -0/+26dugg for the pirate's name: daybad.
it even sounds like a pirate-name - vroom101, on 11/27/2008, -0/+20High-resolution version, 3000 x 3000 pixels: http://www.geoeye.com/CorpSite/gallery/image-viewe ... (www.geoeye.com/CorpSite/gallery/image-viewer.aspx?m=h&iid=207&gid=1)

- minimanjapan, on 11/27/2008, -2/+12Dugg for reference to "Astronaut loses tool bag during spacewalk" story
- Richie311, on 11/27/2008, -0/+9No, your're just not funny. That's it.
- bakamas, on 11/27/2008, -3/+12hahahaha, a neighboring country? Who exactly would that be? Eritrea, Djibouti, Yemen, or Kenya? It's like a list of who's who among the poorest countries in the world.
Don't get me wrong, I am from Somalia (not a pirate, honestly). But that part of the world is screwed up 10 different ways. Those neighbors you speak of need help themselves.
To be honest, I like these pirate stories more than the stoning 13 year old girls stories. Or the suicide bombing stories.
Long live the pirates!!! - Kevunism, on 11/27/2008, -0/+8How soon can we transport Jack Bauer?
- mojoel, on 11/27/2008, -0/+8Only DYING pirates say "Argh." Pirates in common parlance say "ARRRR" or "YARRR" and occasionally "AVAST."
- fuzed, on 11/27/2008, -0/+7Where's that SAS squad from Call of Duty 4 when we need them???
- inactive, on 11/27/2008, -3/+8OMG THEY ARE SPACE PIRATES!
- void, on 11/27/2008, -0/+5Heres their Jack Sparrow:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/gallery/2008/nov/1 ...
"the one who never sleeps" - fegul, on 11/27/2008, -0/+5Look at the size of that ship compared to the town on the shore...
- ryanwarren, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4Wow, digg is obsessed with these real life pirates. It's awesome.
- viper001, on 11/27/2008, -1/+5Sad, but kinda hilarious in a way. Pirates in this day and age, stealing from billionaires. Considering that the coast of Somalia has some of the most shark infested waters in the world, maybe they'll make someone walk the plank.
Haha what if there's a Somali version of Jack Sparrow somewhere there - LanceUppercut, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4I want the US spy satellite version where we can read the serial #s on their guns.
- Wolfboy, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4the headline may overstate things a bit, but GeoEye is in the business of making satellite pictures for private companies. The Guardian might have paid them.
- Henrikdons, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4So you want to be a pirate, eh? You look more like a flooring inspector.”
- freebird09, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4Someone call Samus...?
- kasperu, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4Watch out capitalist skum, watch out, the Pirat King will reunite the seven seas, sharks will be fed, blood will painten the shores and rum stocks will once again skyrise.
But if he looks anything like Keira Knightly I would be thrilled. - mlbwebdesign, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4It's hard to get 7 kills without dying for a chopper, in real life.
- DavidChouinard, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4Arrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
- jason80, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4It's the only way to be sure.
- snyff, on 11/27/2008, -0/+4All hope is lost:
http://flickr.com/photos/44124433324@N01/306455541 ... - nicktheawesome, on 11/27/2008, -0/+3Fighter of the Nightbad?
- MariaFullofMace, on 11/28/2008, -0/+3Always searchin for booty
- anbudom, on 11/27/2008, -0/+3a little further into the article a name is given.....
"The pirate, who identified himself as Daybad, said the crew were being treated as "prisoners of war". He added: "We captured the ship for ransom, of course, but we don't have anybody reliable to talk to directly about it."
come one, Daybad? - Spinducky08, on 11/27/2008, -0/+3...and for those who want THIS stuck in your head for the rest of the day........
http://cristgaming.com/pirate.swf - inactive, on 11/27/2008, -0/+3Dugg for Guardian. Makes a change from all those damn Daily Mail submissions.
- Barbosa, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2I'm sure you'll get your wish soon enough. Too bad that won't get at the root cause of the piracy in the gulf and the scenario will be repeated again and again with losses on all sides and no end in sight though huh?
- anbudom, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2I'm still picturing, eye patches, wooden legs, parrot on shoulder and Skies of Arcadia
- colinodell, on 11/28/2008, -0/+2Small problem: we still can't find Carson Daly
- Merp08, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2I hope they kill those pirates with extreme prejudice.
- stoopie, on 11/27/2008, -1/+3they're probably just staging this hijacking to get oil prices up
- Radical5, on 11/27/2008, -3/+5Nuke from orbit!
Let that be a warning for all the rest of yous primitive pirates. - staticneuron, on 11/27/2008, -2/+4I guess that is because the invasion of the aliens with weak immune systems back in 1939 couldn't be considered much of a battle.
- stealth45, on 11/28/2008, -0/+2Champion of Somalia
- Paulorific, on 11/28/2008, -0/+2Your logic is no good here, Barbosa.
- inactive, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2I'd like to see the Daily Heil's satellite, snapping blurry low-res pictures of asylum seekers across the globe.
- lazerflesh, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2Do what you want because a pirate is free ! You are a Pirate !
- lazerflesh, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2One navy seals or similar special ops team could go in there and capture the ship unharmed.
- benexor, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2you just digg johnny depp
- ASSASSYN360, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2In less than 24 hours we could have Jack Bauer on site.
- Zaviticus, on 11/27/2008, -0/+2Captain Jack would have at least made the hijacking experience entertaining for the crew.
