Last month, India's navy thought it had sunk a pirate "mother vessel" off Somalia but it later emerged that the vessel was actually a Thai fishing trawler that had been seized by pirates off Yemen.
US Defence Secretary Robert Gates said better intelligence was needed for a land attack on pirate bases to be considered, and also called for shipping companies to do more to protect their vessels travelling through the Arabian Sean and Indian Ocean, speaking at a security conference in Bahrain.

It is very interesting that there are pirates at this period of time. So what they do is just attack ships and ask for money like in the pirate of caribbean? I thought pirates are only in old time story.
Yea, slash when did pirating come back? Or did it never leave? It seems like everyday there is a new pirate attack.
it's a crazy world out there. people will go to any extent when their backs, legs, arms, and faces are up against the wall
