Don Quixote and Sancho Panza
Rupee News reported on the charge of Don Quixote on the “Turkish Marmy” which turned out to be windmills. The Mehta attack on the pirate “mother ship” turned out to be a simple Thai trawler. This act to stupidity by the Indian Navy has sparked an international incident betwen Thaliand and India. The Thais are asking “Who died and left the Indians god” in the Gulf. What gave India the right to shoot at a Tha trawler killing 14 innocent sailors.
The Question: Did Indian Navy sink a pirate ship, or just a trawler?
Answer: Well! Yarrr.
That might be the response today to reports that India’s Navy may not have sank a pirate ship after all last week — but instead sank a trawler that was under attack by pirates.
The trawler, the Ekawat Nava 5, was hijacked by pirates in the Gulf of Arden on Nov. 18, Wicharn Sirichaiekawat, the managing director of boat owner Sirichai Fisheries, told the International Herald Tribune. USA Today
Rupee News listed the inaccuracies of the Mehta encounter two days ago. Now the world media is questioning the Indian version of events. Tongue in cheek, Rupee News published the following story. Naval Superpower’s tough message: Gulf is now Indian lake!
New Delhi : The Thai fishing company, which claims it lost a deep sea trawler Ekawatnava 5 and 14 crew members in the Gulf of Aden on November 18, today said a British warship backed off after seeing pirates had taken hostages on board but the vessel was sunk hours later by the Indian Navy without verifying the identity of the sailors.

The incident has sparked off a diplomatic exchange between Thailand and India with the former seeking an explanation. Sources said the Thai embassy in New Delhi has sent a ‘note verbale’, seeking clarification regarding facts of the Navy operation in view of media reports. The matter was also raised when Indian ambassador in Bangkok, Lata Reddy, went to meet Foreign Ministry officials this morning to discuss the East Asia summit, sources said. Indian Express
