Why Somali militants vs. Somali pirates, of course, with the prize being the said supertanker. :huh:

What's next: Ninjas?

(CNN) -- Somali militants vowed to rescue a Saudi supertanker that was hijacked by pirates a week ago, according to residents of a town where the pirates are believed to be based.
The supertanker Sirius Star is loaded with 2 million barrels of oil believed to be valued at $100 million.



Five armored vehicles loaded with al-Shabab fighters arrived in the central Somali coastal town of Harardhere this weekend, near where pirates are holding the massive oil tanker Sirius Star, said Ahmed Mohamed, a resident of the town.

The fighters told residents they would battle the pirates because the tanker, which is loaded with 2 million barrels of oil, is owned by a Muslim country and should not have been taken, Mohamed said.

Of course the Muslim militants don't seem to have any problems with the pirates going after Iranian Muslim shipping....... :huh:

No guesses for who's paying the militants bills.
