somalia pirates
I bet if I lived here I would do exactly the same thing.....and you would too.
These people have absolutely nothing so why not go for the cherry on the cream pie.
What are you going to lose, your life?
On the other hand if I was a boat commander I would shoot to kill anything that got within 1 mile of my boat......no quesitions asked.

Agreed, somewhere in somalia, are pirates driving around in Escalades with 22in. wheels, gold plated AK47s and sporting "grills".

Same country where'Blackhawk Down' took place. I think that it's an awfully poor place, and that life is pretty hard.
I suspect that they'll keep it up if there's even a fair chance that they'll succeed. Alternatives are probably also unpleasant.

I guess they look at it as easy money, at least until now. Why the shipping firms haven't done something a long time ago is beyond me. I hate it that the worlds navies have to come in to take on what should be done first by the companies.

i would fill an old ship up with ammonium nitrate fertilizer, and drive it past them . when the pirates take it back to their hiding hole, push the detonator button and blow then all into a gazillion little pieces. then collect the insurance money on the load of fertilizer, and call it a day.

Back in the day of sail, merchant ships were armed as good as, if not better than the Navies of the world. That way they did not have to figure out who was in charge out in international waters, and who was going to save thier buts. It was all up to themselfs.
