    Pirates who attacked a ship off the coast of Somalia got more than they bargained for when it turned out to be a naval vessel - from an international force against piracy, Nato said.

    The pirates apparently mistook the FGS Spessart for a commercial merchant ship when they targeted it in the Gulf of Aden, between Somalia and Yemen.

    The German supply ship pursued the pirate boat, joined by two other ships, a frigate, a helicopter and a plane.

    A Nato spokesman said: "Poor judgment by the pirates turned out to be a real opportunity for seven nations representing three task forces to work together and strike a momentous blow for maritime safety and security."

    A boarding team discovered several weapons and transferred seven suspected pirates on to another German frigate.

    Nato said the suspects will remain on board until a decision is made as to where they will be prosecuted.

    Would have been better if they killed the pirates.

    still would have made a better story if they got blown to bits by NATO. would have been more of a warning to pirates. Do it old school, heads on the side of the ship.

    What are you talking about? The people there get money from these Pirates, they wouldn't stone them. They are in on it.

    If it were me, I'd take them to shark infested waters and, literally, make them walk the plank blindfolded and bound. If they wanna be pirates, they can be treated like pirates.

    I video it and play it where ever pirates wannabes might see it.

    As long as it's in some hardass country that's part of NATO and not here in the hampy pampy US, where Guantanamo Bay is apparently too harsh.
