    As a Somali this was a very accurate video, great honest work Jake. Man's a role model for MSM.
    One other thing, there was a lot of toxic waste dumped which also poisoned many fish and ended up killing thousands of children.
    This was seen in the 2004 tsunami when a lot of stuff deep into the Indian Ocean came out. 2005 was the first of the Pirate special navy operations kek.
    The based Pirates also saved some rare fish species.

    A very important aspect of the piracy you describe is the fact, that containerships and oiltankers sailing around Africa for decades have made huge amounts of money dumping illegal toxic chemical and nuclear waste while sailing around Africa's coast. This has destroyed the fishing industry, that has been the backbone of these countries for centuries. When they called themselves "Saviors of the sea" it was because they actually tried to be.

    If you’re wondering why ships don’t just arm themselves to defend against pirates, there’s multiple factors that make it difficult but simply one factor is these ships go into a number of different countries that may not allow armed ships to enter their port. Basically it’s just a lot of headache to legally be armed on a ship while still conducting international business with several countries.

    • @freedomdude5420

    The private security, anti pirate business is very profitable.
    Merchant ships have been armed for centuries, but current governments FAIL to protect shipping and HUNT pirates AND don't allow ships to arm their crews effectively.
    Currently, the only option is to add arms and security before entering the dangerous areas around Africa, Arabia and Asia.
    But there are more modern tools, that are not classified as arms and can stay on board.
    LRAD are nice for publicity heavy cruise ships, they use a focused audio beam with a range up to 800m, besides being very loud, they can disrupt the inner ear, letting people lose balance and get dizzy.
    Long range IR lasers are more effective, leaving pirates blind far out at sea, effectively taking them out. But leaving less bullet holes.

Also instead of "we".. the companies have a ethical obligation to invest in the same communities they exploit. If they are exploiting oil in Nigeria then they should also have to invest in education which is mutually beneficial for them & the communities they operate in.

    I remember reading an article in National Geographic magazine on how Russia, the USA, China, India, and Japan as well as a few European countries banded together to deal with the Somalis on a Naval Military mission. To think that the biggest and most powerful countries in the modern world who also constantly bicker and complain as well as threatening to fight one another actually banded together to deal with a place so economically downtrodden like Somalia. Makes you think.

      It’s because they were losing so much money they got freaking angry upset so they went after him for it but you know personally that’s actually their fault anyways they could’ve stopped that but no.

    Great video essay. I would add to Nigeria's pirate problem was a failure of the the national government to share the wealth generated by oil with the Nigerian people ,in addition to, creating laws that enforced environmental regulation and ensured a certain percentage of oil based jobs went to the Nigerian people.
