Fuckin' Somalian pirates!

"They wed the most beautiful girls; they are building big houses; they have new cars; new guns."

I'm Guybrush Threepwood and I want to be a MIGHTY PIRATE!

Maybe it was the right carreer choice after all... Not so stupid as I thought, that Guybrush...
 
The answer is a Q-ship:

A heavily-armed ship that looks like a defenseless freighter ... but who will produce/finance a fleet of such vessels? The toothless UN? The United States?

The first time a US warship (disguised or not) sinks a pirate, the international media will report that the United States, in their familiar role as international bully, "picked on" and sank a group of poor Africans.
