Lads,

First I recommend the Ross Kemp series on this topic.
YouTube - Ross Kemp In Search Of Pirates 1 (1/5)

That will get your started.
Piracy is wrong and so is illegal dumping and fishing. The pirates come from the same groups as the fishermen the west (mainly mafia groups, the Mafia hold the contracts on 1/3 of Italian waste disposal market). The west also destabilized the country when they got the Islamic government over thrown their.

The west has to take responsibilities for the there actions in the region. We created a climate and a strong motive for piracy to operate here. The previous Islamic government had piracy under control as well as the Illegal fishing and dumping.

We seriously have to stop using these areas as dumping grounds... The same is happening in Niger with Oil... We have destroyed the locals ability to feed themselves and then brand them as criminals when they attack... Third world countries all round the world are having these problems..

We need to get to the root of the problem.
