[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 517585, member: 2189"] Considering that many felt Obama would fall on his face, he proved them wrong, no argument. However, I'm not sure he will or has to wait on changes in international law. President Obama can use what others have done in the past and use backdoor means to achieve an end. In the case of the Somali Pirates, he could use the [URL="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/eritrea/5173129/US-threatens-Eritrea-over-support-for-al-Qaeda-linked-terrorists.html"][COLOR=red]connections of Eritrea to Somalian terrorist groups[/COLOR][/URL] and then link the pirates to al-Shabaab which the US insists has al-Qaeda connections and this draws the pirates into an arena not needing changes to international law. If Bush can make Saddam Huissein al-Qaeda, then Obama can do this with the pirates and still have lots of time in the afternoon to play with the new family dog, shoot hoops or go bowling! :wink2: [/QUOTE]
