What if they were to secretly swim in and attach a rope to the lifeboat from one of the ships?
 And maybe just slowly haul them in a little closer. With that kind of control it might reduce it entirely to a waiting game.

1. That would work in a movie
 Real life tends to be messier. For one thing, the rope would have to be attached underwater and not show above water during the pulling. That might not be possible.

That...and the sense of movement and the wake and maybe, "Hey, Achmed, is that warship getting closer? Quick! Kill the American!"

2. Who knows what the Seals are doing? 
 They might just attach a listening device.

Anything's possible.

I'd be surprised if they aren't involved. 
Attach? How 'bout simply "point". We've got all kinds of wicked cool shit...developed from all that defense spending you people keep bitching about.

So the DUMmies are channing their inner Walker, Texas Ranger. This should be fun to watch.

19.  Why don't the navy borrow Willy Wonka's WonkaVision?  It could transport somebody across the water undeteched by those pirates.  Then the captain could be grabbed and brought back the same way and noone gets killed.

They would scarifice Noone?  Damn them!

Just kidding.  I love to think like a Little Goon every now and then.  The numbness tickles.

If I remember correctly WeeWillie has some ninja lawyers. Maybe he can lend them to 0. I'm sure they'll have it all worked out in 24 business hours.

I like how they keep mentioning the last time we were in Somalia, and how it was a Charlie Foxtrot, but yet, none of them give credit to the person who caused it to be a CF. Or has Billy Jeff been absolved of his role by the DUmmies?
There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money— if a gun is held to his head.

Yeah, where was the DUmp/MSM screaming hissy fit for armour then?

Different players, different rules.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
