Chinese And Russians Should Rescue Their Own Ships Before Uncle Sam Moves In by panafrican(m): 7:30pm On Jan 05, 2014

It looks like Americans are trying to get some international political gains over Russia and China in this stuck ships issue out there in the south pole as America is now trying a rescue mission. Why didn't they do it earlier ?
How could China and Russia free their own ships? One way to do is to send in warplanes that would drop tons of bombs on the ice and break it.

Antarctic rescue: US ice-breaker to help stuck ships


A US ice-breaker is to help two ships that are stuck in thick ice in Antarctica following a rescue mission.

The Polar Star has been asked to cut a path through the ice in order to free the Xue Long and the Akademik Shokalskiy, the US Coast Guard said.

The Chinese boat, Xue Long, became ice-bound after helping to rescue 52 passengers stranded on Akademik Shokalskiy on Thursday.
