Piracy is a crime against all nations, no one should have a problem with this.

Yes, they are becoming more than a little annoying...send their boats back inshore full of bulletholes and bloodstained to give their peers something to think about.

BE MORE AGGRESSIVE!!

SINK EM ALL!!

Over 800 captive pirates? Why capture them in the first place? Once they are taken prisoner, it leads to legal complications; if they are killed at sea, no problems.

Reminds me of something I read in an interview of an Spetznas who was deployed to Afghanistan in the 80s.

-Did you see any POWs being executed?
-THERE WAS NO EXECUTIONS! Sometimes there just simply were no survivors.

Kind of like "No pirates were wounded":


Yep, I can easily believe there were no wounded left...

I wonder how much renown they were awarded for that?
