Military Do's and Don'ts by Jay Tea
Two stories in this morning's papers caught my eye. First up, a tale of the US Navy doing just what it ought to: hunting pirates.
This is entirely appropriate. One of the very first challenges the US Navy faced was the Barbary Pirates. Now, 200 years later, we're once again facing pirates off the coast of Africa -- and, I strongly suspect, they're Muslims too. Pirates are the natural enemy of all nations, and it's one of the few things that nearly every nation can agree upon. Recently, the US rescued a North Korean ship from pirates, winning a grudging thanks from that Communist dictatorship and its psychotic tyrant.
