We Have Created the Piracy Threat

Abe Greenwald is very concerned about Obama's "overreaction" to the pirate issue, and concludes:

Let’s face it: on Sunday, we only created more pirates.

Thus, one of the best lines I have read in quite some time.

UPDATE: From humor to reality in 24 hours:

Somali pirates vowed to hunt down American ships and kill their sailors and French forces detained 11 other brigands in a high-seas raid as tensions ratcheted up Wednesday off Africa's volatile eastern coast.

Now we're going to have to let them become a nuclear power so they'll be nice to us.
