The Somalia pirates are not a laughing matter. Piracy is extremely dangerous and one of these days people are going to die. Maybe that is what it will take for the world to take care of these thugs. We should have learned a lesson in Somalia last time, but we ran out and left the job unfinished. I do hope we don't do a half assed job on this problem.
In the short term I'm thinking armed predator drones. The boats can't get there in time, but those buzz bombs most likely could. Sink a few of the mother ships along with the skiff crews and this might ease up a little. Of course if it's piracy or starvation I expect I would be grabbing ships as well.
Unlike Bush in iraq, Clinton ran out on Somalia and now we are where we are. Most of the time the easy way isn't the best way.
