Somali Pirates

What would happen if Cuban Pirates were hijacking cargo ships off of their coast? Do you think that we would allow these hijackers to continue their shenanigans?

“Somali pirates can earn $1 million or more in ransom for each hijacked ship. Forty-two ships were hijacked by Somali pirates last year, and so far 19 have been taken this year.”

How can these easy targets in their glorified dingys hijack large vessels without being blown to smithereens? Every commercial vessel traveling these waters should have a hired sniper/sharpshooter on staff.

The U.S has sent a message.
