Naval War Expands: Two U.S. Navy Seals Reported Lost Fighting Somali Pirates

It's being reported today that two US Navy Seals have gone missing off the coast of Somalia in the Gulf of Aden, after trying to board a Somali pirate ship. The Somali pirate business, and it is a BIG business as they have their own "stock exchange" and insurance companies earn $BILLIONS from it, had died down for several years, but at least four vessels have been hijacked since November off the Somalia coast, two of which are still being held ransom by pirates. This is more bad news for European countries as the halt of shipping on the Red Sea has forced most vessels to go around Africa, and pass through Somalia. Meanwhile, the war in Gaza entered its 100th day this weekend, with reportedly over 23,900 Palestinians killed, with 10,000 of them being children. 1.9 million Palestinians have been driven from their homes.
