Somali pirates sieze French luxury yacht

Today's concession to non-English readers. Piece from Le Monde about French authorities intentions, which may include intervention by the Gendarmerie's specialist unit. Ive missed this item in the UK press, but there have been others on the increasing threat of piracy in the area. Bring back Julius Caesar!

CNN has the story here: http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/africa/04/04/cruiseship.pirates.ap/index.html
