Did the Italians do anything about it? Like shoot back? Or did they just limp home?
I realize you can't do much with a leaking fuel tank, but just limping home with no return response just encourages the pirate attacks.

So our answer to Islamic aggression is to place a bunch of young impressionable young Muslim men in charge of public security... outside the umbrella of trained police response...
... anyone see a problem with that?
It reminds me of the Rolling Stones having the Hell's Angels as their security at Altamont.
Different day, same arrangement.
Sympathy for the devil.
If/When there is an Indian Government with the stones to not "Take IT" after one of these attacks - Pakistan Beware!
