Thanks to President Obama, Captain Richard Phillips is now free from Somali pirates. Yesterday the President made the decisive but risky decision to use military snipers to kill three of the pirates. A defense specialist and former British Naval Officer said the Obama administration showed its resolve by refusing to pay ransom.
