Since the hijack of the Sirius Star on November 17 the world has focused on Somali piracy. In this report, we talk with pirates and those who live in the towns nearby, to uncover how and why they do it.
We climbed aboard and demanded the captain stop , tells one pirate calmly. When we got our money we released them . Pirates claim that their country has had no effective government for 20 years and piracy is one of the few ways to make money. In Garowe, where much of the money ends up, they are applauded. I very much support the pirates, nobody else gives us anything. But in Eyl, pirates are seen as armed youths after easy money .

The solution has downsized the pirates. Private security units loaded with weapons are hired to assist on the ships. These security units do not try to capture pirates, they shoot until the threat is gone. Not only is this slowing down the success for pirates, it is thinning their numbers down. Enough said.

[@AnnaHerrick]

Covering half his face? That isn’t going to protect the pirate from getting shot!

[@happygeorge2814]

Why didn't kill those pirates to fear other pirates

[@commonsense31]

London has earned over 1 billion pounds from Piracy. They facilitate the lawyers, negotiations, all the legal framework. They are earning so much. And to deliver a ransom of 2 millions usd it costs 1.5 millions to get them delivered by special private security forces.

[@adduun]

You come to the shores of Somalia and then you remove the fish, you are the real pirates...

[@Estman100]

??????????????

[@krisbentulan2258]

oh men,. we filipinos are so poor too, please dont pirate those boats. hahahahahahaha

[@abyan1351]

Walhay gabadha wa runteed wxba nagamahalin dad shisheeye dhulkeena ana gaa leh 💪💪🇸🇴

[@tigerking6908]

Waa runtaa abowe

[@mattske5286]

🤔 I wonder where that 1.2Mil went to even though the pirates were caught hmm curious isn't it 🤫

[@mattske5286]

Well there's only 1 explanation isn't there ????

[@forsuhneris3684]

True bro they took it

[@alexcheetah79]

2:17 he means a Toyota Lancruiser

[@SkintoneChickenbone]

Not only fishing water but all precious things in the soil too.

[@psygn0sis]

Turn them all in to shark food!

[@jamesok6436]

in Somalia'' things don't run we we run things''

[@SOffenbach]

Why not just send an A10 Worthog to shore and take out their boats?

[@brandondavis4143]

just need to stop them on the ground. then they won't be able to go to sea.

[@registereduser2059]

We’re having the same problem in Minnesota.

[@sweetman5249]

What problem in Minnesota?

[@liewszeyiung4582]

Why not patrol from where the source come from?...rather than at the wide ocean.

[@redevous]

Lol no jurisdiction. Meaning no other country can patrol a place that doesn’t have any government.

[@tibora13]

5:50 I got 1 question, what was the name of that French Navy Midshipman who stole that ransom money from that pirate? 🎼it takes two baby🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🤷‍♂️✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 🎼Fantastic Voyage🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🤣🤣🤣🤣👑🐊🗡️

[@russellwright5153]

1 AK and a thousand or so rounds per ship. If the flea ridden pirates can afford AKs then so can every ships owner.

[@The-Bad-Boyscout]

The fact is no nation has the stomach to deal with the pirates effectively. The capture and later release of the pirates is not enough of a deterrent and there would be too much public outcry if they were to kill the pirates openly. It will have to be done as black ops and never divulged.

[@AnnaHerrick]

America could and would stop them if it were a BIG problem in America! Guaranteed!

[@skateboardingjesus4006]

That's ridiculous, as that approach would most definitely backfire when it inevitably becomes public.

[@theguyyoudontfuckingknow294]

Now what are these Somalian pirates in comparison to the caribbean golden age pirates.

[@KasGikes420]

I still don't understand how these guys can hijack aircraft carriers with with little pathetic motorboats and ak47s

[@prophetsj1180]

+Mega Mods THAT MAKES TWO OF US !!!

[@ninovalencia5385]

why dont you just put 2 or more navy seals in each every ship when you go across Somalia

[@acxcismaanmadar6452]

samlja

[@acxcismaanmadar6452]

[@ryszardapawowska721]

Kto i w jakim celu doprowadza kraje Afryki do nędzy ubóstwa biedy

[@slimbodenero577]

Or stop over fishing the waters and not paying a tax

[@abbyrose6998]

I think it’s absolutely brilliant that the SUPER POWERS of the world have come together to protect these ships! !! The firepower that rains down on them from a battleship is amazing and sends those low life’s packing!! HAHAHA!!

[@aboaamer8951]

Its not an adventure its a job.

[@verrmaja]

Somalia with other regions should establish a toll fee to pass through the gulf of Aden.

[@mack22x]

Wouldn't that require a stable government to facilitate that?

[@illberightback5015]

Chad Mackey unfortunately they don’t have that

[@checkcheck1579]

unfortunately they didnt build the sea and, the ships are passing through "INTERNATIONAL" waters.

[@weesee9694]

why us does not invade somalia (to clean warlord and pirates) like they usually did all around the world like afganistan,iraq,afganistan etc?lol

[@expulsoroffarts1589]

Yusri Nasir It really wasn’t that many people, the locals would hide their source of income and nothing a few deaths at sea couldn’t discourage anyway.

[@bilana289]

No one can’t invade Somalia remember black hawk down when the usa tried

[@Estman100]

Let the Russians sort it out free hands to 2-3 weeks and its done clear and safe waters.

[@davec5153]

Send out a private security firm with a destroyer. Tell them to stop the problem no questions asked and it'll end.

[@Reubachi]

Did you watch the video…? There are now 8 or so ships exactly as you describe. Divide 1700 miles by 8 ships. you’ll see why it’s not so easy.

[@dbcooper692]

i just saw one of those pirates and he looks just like berry obama but not as gay looking

[@deridaluke9357]

Tell me I’m harsh, but their punishment would be simple: wipe out the entire village

[@wc7516]

If they plan to fight unto death... hopefully it comes sooner than later for them!

[@Bantal700]

why the hell doesnt canada ship to china over the pacific?

[@pelusaabelleira4660]

Muy. interesante el vídeo pero tendría que ser traducido al español para poder opinar

[@mumindheere3000]

not about pirates western and. world they come to take fish pirates pirates pirates lier and throw stains

[@MegaShanes1]

This is what America would be like if it was,nt for Trump.

[@tigerking6908]

First find the reason why Somalia has pirates then judge 😤😠

[@petersiakiemuang1753]

[@SOffenbach]
