Reading this weekend's International Herald Tribune, I noticed that on the same page they reported the release of a Ukrainian ship captured by Somalian pirates: its cargo was arms, tanks from Ukraine destined for the 'Kenyan military' (this is a suspicious claim) and a Sri Lankan peace activist kidnapped in Southern Philippines.
Both articles were laid side by side. The Ukraines paid $3.2 million ransom to the Somali pirates and the Philippine government told the kidnappers they dont pay ransom to kidnappers.
Life or arms are more important?
