The Russians first handcuffed all of the Pirates to the Boat and then blew it up and sank the vessel. For some reason Somalia Pirates have quit attacking Russian Ships.
We should allow our Flagged vessels to hire private security firms (a la Blackwater). These "Security Specialists" would have to board the vessels out at sea, because cargo vessels are not allowed to be armed when entering foreign ports. The "Security Specialists" could also escort the Vessels with privately developed fast attack boats. With the correct Armaments, they could sink or severely damage any of the Somali Pirate boats that attempt to attack our Cargo Vessels. I believe after a few incidents, American Flagged Vessels would be as safe as the Russian Vessels.
