A fourth pirate was arrested and taken to the United States for trial. The three men were shot dead by commandos on April 12 and ended a five-day hostage ordeal for the Maersk Alabama captain, who was being held on a lifeboat far out in the Indian Ocean. [Mohamed Abdulle Mohamed, Bosasso Port Commander]: \Those three dead men in the coffins were handed over from the U.S. Forces today. As you can see there are three bodies. Heavily-armed pirates from Somalia have been striking vessels in the busy Indian Ocean shipping lanes and strategic Gulf of Aden, capturing dozens of vessels, kidnapping hundreds of hostages and raking in millions of dollars in ransoms. The attacks have disrupted U.N. aid supplies, driven up insurance costs and forced some firms to consider routing cargo between Europe and Asia around South Africa instead.</td></tr><tr><td>Category</td><td>:</td><td>United States</td></tr><tr><td>Views</td><td>:</td><td>779</td></tr><tr><td>Votes</td><td>:</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Rating</td><td>:</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><td>Downloads</td><td>:</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Added by</td><td>:</td><td>Abbas Gassem</td></tr><tr><td>Date</td><td>:</td><td>2009-05-02 02:15:53</td></tr></table>$	US Navy Hands Over Three Slain Soma...

$Video Info::<table><tr><td width='30%' valign='top'>Title</td><td width='1%' valign='top'>:</td><td width='89%'>Somali pirate arrives in New York Court</td></tr><tr><td valign='top'>Details</td><td valign='top'>:</td><td>The pirate suspect arrested in the hijacking of the Maersk Alabama was all smiles on arriving in New York City late Monday, escorted by a phalanx of law enforcement officers. None of the officers would confirm his identity, but his arrival for trial in the United States had been widely expected. The suspect arrived at the Jacob K. Javits Federal Office Building in Manhattan, which is linked to a federal detention facility where he was expected to be held pending an appearance in federal court. The timing of that appearance was not immediately available. He was walked through the rain, surrounded by media, as well as officers from federal and New York City law enforcement agencies. The suspect wore a dark jumpsuit and handcuffs, and what appeared to be a bandage on his left hand. Members of the media urged him to comment, but it was not clear whether he understood. He smiled broadly and laughed. He had been handed over to federal authorities by the U.S. military in Djibouti, defense officials said. The suspect, known in official documents as \Pirate Defendant,\ was brought to Djibouti aboard the USNS Walter S. Diehl, a refueling ship that was with the warship USS Bainbridge at the scene of the failed hijacking on April 8 that turned into a hostage ordeal 350 miles off Somalia. Three pirates who were holding the Maersk Alabamas captain in the ships lifeboat were killed by Navy SEALs four days later. The survivor had surrendered and was aboard the Bainbridge when the captain, Richard Phillips, was rescued, officials have said. From the Bainbridge, he was transferred to the USS Boxer for medical treatment. Phillips was wounded when crew members of the Maersk Alabama took him hostage in the early hours of the pirate attack on the cargo ship, according to the military. The crew members had hoped to exchange him for their captain, but the pirates did not release Phillips when the crew returned their captive. \Im mad because, you know, I could have been dead right now,\ Ken Quinn, the Maersk Alabamas navigation officer, told CNN Radio on Monday. \But at the same time hes just a little skinny guy, you know, from Somalia where theyre all starving and stuff.\ Quinn said he wasnt angry at the single alleged pirate, noting that piracy in the region is fueled by the urge to survive hardship and poverty. He said the suspect told him that he wanted to go the United States, and asked whether Quinn could help him get there. \I said, Yeah, youll probably going to go anyway. I dont think youre going to need my help,\ Quinn said. \If he goes to jail here, it will be a whole lot better than living in Somalia.\</td></tr><tr><td>Category</td><td>:</td><td>United States</td></tr><tr><td>Views</td><td>:</td><td>390</td></tr><tr><td>Votes</td><td>:</td><td>7</td></tr><tr><td>Rating</td><td>:</td><td>2.86</td></tr><tr><td>Downloads</td><td>:</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Added by</td><td>:</td><td>Abbas Gassem</td></tr><tr><td>Date</td><td>:</td><td>2009-04-22 08:23:54</td></tr></table>$	Somali pirate arrives in New York C...

$Video Info::<table><tr><td width='30%' valign='top'>Title</td><td width='1%' valign='top'>:</td><td width='89%'>Somalia Pirates Strike At Another US Cargo Ship</td></tr><tr><td valign='top'>Details</td><td valign='top'>:</td><td>Somali pirates have used rocket launchers to attack another cargo vessel, although they failed to board the ship. None of the crew of the Liberty Sun has been hurt. The Liberty Sun suffered damage, but the crew was unharmed, the ships owner said. Liberty Maritime said the pirates fired rocket-propelled grenades and automatic weapons at the vessel, which was carrying US food aid for African nations. The ship, which was en route to Mombasa, Kenya, from Houston, immediately requested help from the US Navy and was put under escort. \We are grateful and pleased that no one was injured and the crew and the ship are safe,\ a statement from the New York-based maritime company said. The attack was the second in a week on a US-flagged ship in the region. On Sunday, snipers on board a US Navy destroyer killed three Somali pirates in a dramatic operation to free the captain of the Maersk Alabama. Richard Phillips had been held hostage in a lifeboat following a botched raid on his ship. USS Bainbridge Snipers fired from USS Bainbridge Heavily-armed pirates from lawless Somalia have been terrorising the busy Indian Ocean shipping lanes and the Gulf of Aden. The outlaws have captured dozens of vessels and hundreds of hostages, and collected millions of dollars in ransoms. Earlier on Tuesday, they hijacked two more cargo vessels and opened fire on a third. Since the operation to rescue Capt Phillips, they have seized four ships and taken a total of 60 hostages. \Our latest hijackings are meant to show that no-one can deter us from protecting our waters from the enemy because we believe in dying for our land,\ pirate Omar Dahir Idle told reporters by telephone. \Our guns do not fire water. I am sure we will avenge (those killed by the US special forces).\</td></tr><tr><td>Category</td><td>:</td><td>United States</td></tr><tr><td>Views</td><td>:</td><td>355</td></tr><tr><td>Votes</td><td>:</td><td>1</td></tr><tr><td>Rating</td><td>:</td><td>3</td></tr><tr><td>Downloads</td><td>:</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Added by</td><td>:</td><td>Abbas Gassem</td></tr><tr><td>Date</td><td>:</td><td>2009-04-16 04:18:49</td></tr></table>$	Somalia Pirates Strike At Another U...
