The Sea Gangsters



BBC Radio is going to be doing a program on Tuesday April 12 about the realities of the pirates of Somalia.


"What the world sees is a half glamorous image of the Johnny Depps of Somalia. The reality is the new pirates are some 130 seperate but highly organized gangs..."


It would be lovely though if there were Johnny Depp's and men with similar looks sailing the high seas of the Indian Ocean...I would let them capture me.


Sadly this is far from the truth and the "growing scandal of international piracy" is reaching new dangerous heights, resulting in the deaths of innocents.
