I'd say the odds of these guys attacking legitimate fishermen are pretty high. Adults paying to play "navy" with human targets = bad idea.

Pirates behave like fisherman during the day. It's mimikry.

That'S why boats should be stopped and searched. If there are weapons onboard, sink them.

Unpracticle with that umber of boats you would need to search, and those limited assets. So you either raise the white flag, or you strike and accept to get your hands dirty occasionally.

the problem is that all the evasive actions the pirates take to escape the fate of being targetted - is accepted by the West to function as intended. That way the West has accepted to be left with no really efficient options to delete piracy. what is being done so far is so overregulated and hampered by legal inner problems that it serves as an alibi only, doing nothing to make the problem go away in the future, and assets assigned are too minor in size anyway. In fact, the problem grows.
