Just like WMDs,You are being lied to about pirates

[Ernst]

Well, while the original rallying cry was indeed claims of other nations trespassing and taking fish from Somali waters... the pirates now operate far outside of that territory, negating their claims of "righteous protection of sovereign waters". They are openly attacking ships in international waters that have nothing to do with the Somalis original grievances. Greed trumps all. Thank you for playing.

I concurred... it is certainly the case of the weak pirates verses stronger pirates. You be the judge.
