Somali thugs execute the American hostages

I said before that this situation was bad.

4 American hostages killed by pirates off Somalia
I hope the surviving thugs are brought to the U.S. and tried for murder. These criminal gangs should know that taking Americans, and some other countries' citizens, will only bring them death or long prison terms far, far from their homeland. If they kill the hostages at sea, they will certainly never see Somalia again.

UPDATE: 14 indicted in pirate attack on American yacht
