Pirates on the high seas. The US media fails to cover it, why ?

Somalia, Africa, October 22, 2007

                I thought Pirates were a fable but apparently I am wrong.  Argh and “You’re going to walk the plank, matey.”

               It amazes me how much information the US media fails to cover on purpose. It’s one thing to miss it but NOT cover it is with Malice.  I know the main reason the US media does this is because of one thing, President Bush.  Here is proof .  They hate anything that makes Bush and company look good.  Morally speaking, if a wacko gang hijacks a boat with 2 million gallons of a highly exposive liquid, what morale guided person would not try to stop the criminals ? BUT the US media cant stand it when the United States of America  is doing something moral & humane.       

               First, we need some facts. Go to www.Google.com/news & search on the word “Pirates” & you wil find over 18,000 articles.

               Second, have you heard anything about Pirates in the news other than “Pirates of the Caribbean” ?    I read two local newspapers, watch the 6:30 evening news and read at least one monthly business magazine and not once did I see anything about Pirates.             

               Next, go to this blog website and look at the first comment. A naturalist questions why the USA would be involved in helping. This was his first & foremost comment.      Blog comment .          

               Finally if you care to read through the rough details you will learn the USS Porter assited the Somali government when the USS Porter fired upon and sunk the Pirate skiff & Late Monday, the U.S. navy destroyer USS James E. Williams engaged in a deadly battle with Somali pirates who had hijacked the North Korean-flagged vessel, the Dai Hong Dan, off the coast of Somalia. 

               My question is this. With the stealing of 10,000 tons (not pounds) of a highly explosive Benzene by terrorist, why would the US media withold this information from US citizens ?                                                                                                         

               You can do a search at the Hartford Courant or the Journal Inquirer for Pirates around October 22, 2007 & you wont find any comments on Somalia Pirates.
