Federalism might work in there, and in some cases, I think, has.

by there, i mean Africa in general, not Somalia in particular.

If you take over a ship and demand ransom then you are a pirate. If you just shoot bullets and RPGs at a ship then you are a terrorist.

Bomb Somalia. That will solve the problem with these assholes. A couple cruise missles up their ass and they won't ever want to look at an American ship again. Since UN isn't getting involved I say protect US vessels and f**k everyone else.

Not the smartest way of handling things if you want to have any credibility whatsoever with other countries. We send cruise missiles down there, we're definitely going to kill hostages. Intentionally killing hostages is acceptable under no circumstances.

I meant to bomb only their land bases- Somalia can not be fixed in the near future. Piracy isn't going to stop but we can disrupt their organizations and hopefully reduce the amount of attacks because it has really been getting out of hand for the past couple of years.

Please think about that before posting such inanities.
