Piriate ships, and crews when caught, the ship was sunk, and the piriates hung. It was the only effective way to stop it. Put some US Marines aboard US flagged ships for the passage in affected waters, when the piriates come near the US ship and fire of it, blow them out of the water, and the mother ship they came from. after a dozen or so speedboats get riddled with machinegun fire, US ships will be left alone. After we do it, France, Greece, India, Japan, and China will not be far behind us. Pick up a squad of Marines in Suez, and bring them to Mobassa, let them fly back.
