Eight Somali pirates killed as South Korea rescues freighter crew

The best kind of pirate is a dead pirate. These terrorists should be killed on the spot each and every time, and their bodies left for the fish.

South Korean navy commandos today rescued the crew of a freighter hijacked in the Arabian Sea last week, killing eight Somali pirates and capturing another five.

Officials in Seoul said all 21 members of the crew – 11 Burmese, eight Koreans and two Indonesians – were safe after the rescue mission.

“Our special forces stormed the hijacked Samho Jewelry … and freed all hostages,” Colonel Lee Bung-woo, a spokesman for the joint chiefs of staff, told reporters in Seoul.

“During the operation, our forces killed some Somali pirates and all of the hostages were confirmed alive.”
