...Here are the stats douchebag. Over half off all attacks around the entire world are from Somalia. I would say that's a problem worth mentioning. Now STFU and get back in your hole. Pirates are suspected of taking British couple Paul and Rachel Chandler's yacht after it disappeared off the coast of east Africa while the pair were sailing from the Seychelles to Tanzania. It is one of several recent high-profile pirate kidnappings. British yachtsman Malcolm Robertson was killed by pirates when his boat was hijacked off Thailand in March, and several Brits were among the crew of the ship Sirius Star which was held for ransom in November last year. According to the ICC International Maritime Bureau's quarterly report on piracy and armed robbery, published last week, there were 306 attacks on ships around the world in the first three quarters of 2009. The ICC's data shows that the Gulf of Aden is the most dangerous stretch of water: 100, or around a third, of attacks have taken place there this year. The Gulf of Aden is one of six areas where attacks are carried out by Somali pirates, who have been responsible for 164 attacks this year (more than half). Somalia and the Gulf Aden are also the areas where most hostages have been taken, though the statistics show that violent attacks of piracy are relatively rare. While 661 hostages have been taken this year, only 23 victims have been injured and six killed (though a further eight are missing). Take a look at the table below to see where attacks have taken place, or download the spreadsheet for the figures on violence used by location. See what you can do with the data.

Most ships captured are in Somali waters. Why are they in Somali waters??? Because they are doing illegal fishing and dumping toxic waste They literally stole all the fishes in the waters. The pirates were former fishermen. Did fox news tell your that?? Of course not. |

.....Show me your proof that your "pirates" were fisherman. It's a nice human interest story for douchebag liberals like you to eat up. Most of those hijacked ships weren't illegally in their waters either. You are 100% full of ****. Read my prior post you dumb ****. |

The reason they're hijacking, is because they're poor and don't give a crap. |
