The other ship fired at firstBy: Simhan | Thursday , 27 Nov '08 4:29:49 AM Reply | Forward If you look through the incident report, it will be seen that the other vessel clearly engaged the Indian Naval Ship by firing first. It was no longer a "poor" fisherman's trawler once the pirates were on board. I stick with our navy and its actions.
thai fishing trawler-indian navyBy: kk | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 20:01:25 PM Reply | Forward It is sad that innocent were killed because of misunderstang of Indian naval force. I think they should take extra care before they take harsher step. I think Indian Navy should compensate the poor fishermen. This should not stop Indian chasing the pirates.
Ummm why do Thai fishing trawlers go to fish in Somalia?And why would pirates hijack fish boats?By: ATS | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 19:38:30 PM Reply | Forward Too fishy. Why do Thai fishing trawlers go to fish in Somalia?And why would pirates hijack fish boats? Are the pirates in Somalia not just Somalis? After all, they have hijacked a Muslim ship! And since when fishing boats started being hijacked by pirates? Don;t they have fishing lines to catch their own fish already that they have to hijack Malaysian and Indonesian ships to eat fish? This is way to wierd, the Thai guy who owns this ship must be put to narco test by Maharashtra ATS.
Security is importantBy: INDIAN PATRIOT | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 18:04:51 PM Reply | Forward Indian Navy played defense. If shot we will shoot back. Now please hold our lips tight. Why did the Malysian Navy not invterven? So now we should have a policy of shoot and shut up.
American interest in the IndianoceanBy: S JOE | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 17:52:51 PM Reply | Forward Indian Navy should be very careful about there current pirate pursuite in the Gulf of Aden. What they are doing in the International waters are against the American interest. American is planning its next war in African. They are prearing the ground for the war, by arming and using the pirates to create lawlessness in the region. They will come to establish the law that protect American interest in the Indian Ocean . Thus they will be able to contain India and Indian Navi in the Indian Ocean. India should defeat the American game plan by containing the pirates.
RidiculousBy: Karze | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 18:23:49 PM Reply | Forward Somali is a failed state. Islamist there are looking for American blood.You just can't blame American for every evil in this world. There are so many like evil practices in India, dowry death, corruption and rape. Do you blame that for American.
stupid peopleBy: Vishal | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 19:09:55 PM Reply | Forward Tomorrow if S. Joe developes constipation, he is likely to diagnose that too as an American conspiracy. Idiots....

Fishing piratesBy: John | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 17:30:39 PM Reply | Forward Fishing in the pirate waters itself is fishy. Somebody wants India to stop petroling the pirate infested waters.
SHAME!!!!!!! SHAME!!!!!!By: RamKrishna | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 17:30:29 PM Reply | Forward CHINA FOR HER CLAIMS ABOUT THE SATELLITE LAUNCHED TOWARDS MOON FOR LYING ABOUT SOMETHING ABOUT THE DISTANCE AND ANGLE OR SOMETHING INDIA HAD SHOWN BIG FIGURES WHILE CHINA SHOWED VERY SMALL FIGURES WHICH INDIA NEVER ARGUED BACK. QUESTION IS WHY DO WE HAVE TO BLUFF. WHAT DO WE GAIN? LOOK AT USA, EVEN AFTER REALLY DOING SOMETHING SHE WOULD KEEP QUIET, AND OTHERS WILL SAY USA DID IT. THAT SHOULD BE THE CASE. THIS IS NOT A WAY TOWARDS BECOMING A POWER. NOW INDIA WOULD HAVE TO ARGUE BACK WITH MORE LIES IN EFFORT TO JUSTIFY THE FIRST LIE. WHAT IF ALL THE CREW MEMBERS SEW INDIA FOR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AS DAMAGES? AS AN INDIAN MY HEAD TURNS DOWN IN SHAME.
Relax dude !By: SoftWords BigStick | Thursday , 27 Nov '08 8:45:39 AM Reply | Forward Keep your pants on mate !! You obviously dont know anything about international maritime law. The Indian Navy did everything by the book, so there is no room for anyone to "sew" India for millions of dollars. Jai Hind !!
SHAME!!!!!!! SHAME!!!!!!By: RamKrishna | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 17:29:38 PM Reply | Forward WHAT A SHAME! THE VIDEO SHOWING THAT THE VESSEL INDIAN NAVY CLAIMED TO BE OF PIRATES WAS IN FACE A FISHING VESSEL WAS ALL OVER THE NEWS IN MANY CHANNELS IN US. FORGET ABOUT CLAIMS OF “SELF DEFENSE”. UNFORTUNATELY THESE CLAIMS ARE NOT BY AN INDIAN PRIVATE COMPANY BUT INDIA AS A COUNTRY? MY COMMENTS ON THE FIRST NEWS WERE – “ I HOPE THE CLAIM BY OUR NAVY IS TRUE, BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY ELECTRONIC EYES INCLUDING SATELLITE NOW A DAYS, AND THE WAY IT WAS REPORTED ‘SELF DEFENSE’ WAS LOOKING ‘FISHY’ ALREADY, AND I ALSO HAVE SAID ‘THERE ARE NAVY FROM MANY COUNTRIES IN THE REGION AND NO PIRATE CAN FIGHT A NAVY, WHY OTHER COUNTRIES DON’T DO THIS INCLUDING USA WHO ARE TOLD ‘TO FIRE ONLY FOR SELF DEFENSE’. WHY WE DO THIS. THIS CREATES A SHAMEFUL IMPRESSION. INDIA WAS RECENTLY CAUGHT BY
Laughing stockBy: Someone special | Wednesday , 26 Nov '08 17:13:25 PM Reply | Forward As January 26th is fast approaching, everybody is trying to be very active to get president's medals, which is seen from the ATS action and the shooting of the naval force of the supposed to be pirate ship
