Err, Green peace started the piracy by trying to board the rig, so the Russians are simply playing a defence role.
Just what the heck do Green peace think they are playing at? They seem to think they have the right to do anything they please regardless of the law but when it is done back to them they whine.
can i take it from your answer youngmafbog you are against my plan to strap a 21 pounder onto the deck of the cutty sark and send that round to murmansk to show them we mean business.
I agree with YMB....Greenpeace aggression against a peaceful foreign project........lucky for Greenpeace that i was not in charge of Russian Naval capability....I would have blown the Greenpeace ship out of the waters.
It's not piracy, it's the Russians defending their interests from do-gooder intruders. I have no time for Greenpeace, any more that I do for the Fracking protest mob. They're disruptive, and make no difference.
