Japan-operated tanker attacked off Somali coast

Instead of escorting ships, the Chinese should just go in and attack the pirates in their homes in Somalia.

Umm... anybody check to see if the vessel doing the strafing was the Chinese warship?

What kind of "escort service" were the Chinese providing if an "unidentified vessel" can pull up to the tanker, strafe it, and make a clean get-away without getting interdicted by the warship?

it is being escorted as it departs Rotterdam and "continues" to original destination. So I am guessing it is post-attack

We should have the Japanese defence forces escorting the ship-Not Any other ! Shoot to Kill-the only way to stop this!
