to Jew hating sites all over the net. Now, in addition to being responsible for Communist atrocities, slavery, Great Depression, world-wide wars, world hunger, Aids, Parkinson disease and predatory banking, the Jews are ruthless buccaneers now. Thanks a lot.

Lighten up! I found this fascinating. and I could care less what others think .

the fact that the famous Blackbeard, Binyamin Cherrysky, was indeed a Chabadnik, he sailed the seas in his Mitsvos Ship, tracing jewish travellers: wear teffilin and hear the shofar sound... or pay a ransom

u r kidding. no ???were not that good!!

I am gob smacked!!!! the great Lafiette was Jewish.......maybe Captn Jack Sparrow is too..lol. Oh george dont let it get to you that way...us Israelis areover the moon, now they will fear us more as our navy hoists the skull and crossbones...um maybe have to change the cross thing, but i actually find this all very exciting, but then I always knew we had adventourous Jews

Why did they remove any reference to the fact that Jean Lafitte was Jewish? Sometimes it seems like those neurotic Woody Allen-types in the movie industry can't handle Jews who are tough and audacious. It's probably the reason why they rarely make films about Israelis. Then if they do, you get nonsense like "Munich" where one of the Israeli commandos became so overwrought, he had to live in Brooklyn instead of returning to Israel. Jewish pirates rock!!!

How do you call , who steal hudreds of million $ which belong to Pals who suffer hunger in Ramadan. isn't a Pirate , or I'm wrong?

Israel gives the Palestinians millions of dollars. And the Muslims FAST during Ramadan, OF COURSE THEY ARE HUNGRY. You are making a fool of yourself. Please hold your tongue.

"Pals who suffer hunger in Ramadan" got "hudreds of million $" to buy rockets, explosives and Kalashnikovs to kill jews. Of cause Israel should pay to Hamas. But Italy must give example and pay to al-kaeda. Osama being hungry too. ;-)))

Good to know that the crimes of Catholic Spain have been partially punished by Jewish Pirates. There should be some more of that kind of piracy. As to No.10: Cagalone, pantalone, anonimo, malafatto. Shuttuppayofeysaaa!

the whole world knows about the hundred millions $ derived from tax kept in israeli treasury unpaid to Pals you don't know about it !! at sun-set they have to do Iftar,can you tell me with what,due a hermetic embargo also for fresh food + black-out in Gazza,then you tell me that Israel gives them millionsof $$ and you said foolishness !! are you human !

You're right even morons see the embargo unjust , clever peoples like you don't see any harm in the issue. Bravo .....

What about that pirate, Arafat, who stole hundreds of millions of dollars that now sit in the bank account of his pig-faced wife Suha?

would be my idea for a great title. I too am excited about this book. Ed Kritzler never gave up but he did write and edit himselve over decades. I can't want to read the published version. In full disclosure, I have to add that I so admire his stick-to-it quality. I should know how hard it was, as he is my ex-husband. Yes, readers I married him and we divorced ages ago, but what beter praise than an EX, as things go. Buy it as soon as it comes out, last i saw it was great!!! Ed's ex, Wendy Orange

they just Arrrrrrr!

Dear miss, honestly speaking ,no comment , this evening i learned the exact summ of unpaid tax , it's 550 million $ , not bad isn't , sorry for bothering you ...

What do you expect me to say in front of this human tragedy,where kids, women,ancient people,sick people,winter is coming,most of them homeless due IDF / IAF bombing,they are human being like me & you,now i know the exact summ of tax money, 550 millions $ are you happy now !!

My ancestors sent a whole fleet to spanish ports to evacuate 100.000 jews of your ancestors to a safe capital of an empire,saving them from spaniards hands,a correction for your Italian : Cagone-Malfattore -translate that strange long word, by the way just for you,Ciao Pirla

Since we wanna play the history game let's play. Your ancestors (the romans) destroyed my ancestors homeland killing most of the Jews and dispersing the Jews from ancient Israel. The current problem was created by your ancestors. But hell you seem to know so much about history so why bother teaching you what must already know? RIGHT? Arivah Dherchi Habibi.

Wow , Clickright ..... ! Who reads your responses would believe that your nation is the most illuminated and humane on the globe..... That's good to know! (by the way: I lived in Italy for 10 beautiful years ....so I know) Un Ebreo

So my home-cooked Italian made you show that you are Turkish. Respect is due to Sultan Ikinci Beyazit Han. Write your true name and you will be respected too. As to Pals, their ancestors, siding with Ingiliz Gâvuru, stabbed the retreating, thirsty and hungry Ottoman Army ,who had no ammo left after the Battle of Kut, in the back. Almost with the same methods Pals trap the IDF today. Harb Okulu in Ankara will confirm. Go and teach morality and Ottoman History to somebody else!! Show your name instead of clicking right or left. Go in peace!

I'm off to see the wizard....the wonderful wizard of......

So somewhere back in time there were pirates who were Jewish. Why not, for every other nation indulged to some extent in these things. It's just a small chapter on some people that has had no real effect on world affairs beyond the excitement that the name conjures up. If it gives credence to the anti-Semitic lobby who else really cares. They look for any excuse to cover their Muslim friends' failures and this is just another.

What do you expect me to say? I live in Israel, I KNOW what I'm talking about! "human tragedy" - false! kids, women,ancient people,sick people,winter is coming,most of them homeless due IDF / IAF bombing" - LIE Gaza - complitly independant terrorists entity. Food coming REGULARY. Gazastripians CHOSE WAR! they send rockets and suicide bombers to Israel EVRY DAY.

habibi history is facts no body can play games with it ,your historical knowledge is a bit scarce ,or Milan confused your thoughts,the fleet which evacuated the jews from Spain was the Ottoman Empire fleet , punto & basta . Ciao

Ishak bey , my message was an adequate reply to your slightly arrogant post, with no hint of teaching nothing to nobody, my compliment to your knowledge in history , since the subject was pirates & sea stories , i mentioned that page of history , mind you the great ottoman admiral Hayruddin Barbarossa started his career as a pirate .
