It is time that the Naval Forces shows "balls" to make it order and no long-term stories, pirates are already holding several ships hostage..

Somali pirates usually seize ships using the Gulf of Aden, one of the world's busiest waterways. They earn multimillion dollar ransoms with little risk because Somalia has not had an effective government for 19 years...

Actually I'm a strong believer in the doctrines of attrition and maneuver warfare. I prefer smaller fast moving units to strike at an enemy's C4 systems to disrupt operations along with interdicting strikes to destroy enemy supply lines to isolate and neutralize enemy forces with out actually engaging them.
