More Attention to Terrorists at Sea

By Andrew Cochran

Much more attention is being given in the press now to the possibility of terrorists using or pirating ships for either smuggling and transportation, or as actual attack vehicles. Newsweek has an article about it in this week's edition. James Dunnigan has one of his tidbits on the capture of 14 small ships in the Persian Gulf this year by American and British warships. The website that I've found thus far that pays continuous attention to the subject is EagleSpeak, so I've added it to the "Centers and Websites" box (apologies to ES for not doing it weeks ago). I would welcome all e-mails on the subject, especially from naval intel types.
