As a Somali I’m very proud of the piracy in Somalia. When you push a lion to the edge he’ll fight back. Don’t go to someone land and put garbage and steal there natural resources
you got the point brother, but just dont be a sea pirate as you wont do anything you just nothing on the face of the earth.. just change you mind and earn a honest living. for the sake of your childrwn and theirs.
Educate yourself before you turn into a keyboard terrorist. I can guarantee none of these fishermen are from my country! We don’t need to travel this far from our own coats for fish! Those are US cargo ships carrying supplies FOR Africa that are being attacked in international waters which are considered no countries waters.
@@abelnckson9573Somalia will never know peace and stability because check the borders of Somalia created by European colonialism the Somalis are divided into Ethiopia kenya Djibouti and Somalia 🇸🇴
@@daviroza4700 they created those borders to make sure we kill each other and other africans like ethiopia and kenya are happy thinkin their white gods gave them land but all they got is a nation that will never be truely united
***** Yeah they will make returns but only for the power hungry warlords there, not for the people of Somalia who will suffer more isolation because the rest of the world already considers them as a lawless terrorist nation. Crime doesn't pay much less sustain an entire country's economy in the long run. Oh and by the way these Somalian pirates are well outside Somalian waters and have extended their operations to almost the entire Indian ocean now, for eg, search Seychelles Somalian piracy.
***** hehe Yeah, our family has been fucking each other over and over and over again for a thousand generations so we are utterly and completely inbred, plus we hate ALL races, every single one of them including whatever race YOU identify with and do you know why!? It's because, no matter how racist we are, and no matter how inbred we are... we make YOU!, look totally STUPID!
I sow all the comments damn this was the best ✋ what do they expect when they do that man people are starving😚 what do they expect to be a warm welcome😄
So sad. I’d probably be a pirate too if I were in that situation. Maybe not a pirate but like that guy said “I support them” , we’ll support those who support us. They definitely don’t receive help from their government.
the ships are in international waters. only shitheads dont know maritime laws. and they never attack fishing ships, only cargo ships. its all excuses and alibyes.
Who really are the pirates? Those who come to Somalia and steal the Somalian resources or The Somalians hijacking the vessels that steals their resources?
The translations for somali to english are really bad. The coast gaurd guy said bahaanahay like 6 times, which means 'need' but that was never in the english translation. Alshabaab does not literally mean 'terrorists' as it was translated in this video.
That was an excellent perspective of the pirate movement in somalia. I feel terrible for them. All of them. They might still engage in piracy after aid is given, but where on earth is there zero crime. The international community needs to hold ships registered to them accountable for poaching fish. Take one ship from each major NATO country and use them to secure the fishing grounds for the somalis. The complacency and indifference of my country, and their allies greatly undermines the "good guy" image they try to portray.
Agreed. The problem is proving that particular companies and ships were there and holding them accountable. The issue is that merchant cargo ships are being attacked that have nothing to do with poaching.
I'm sure Somalia will sort itself out. Their economy is growing and foreign investment is coming into the country. Life is what you make of it and it is up to them to decide what kind of society they want to live in.
What needs to be acknowledged is the root cause of the turmoil in Somalia, And that is the external foreign intervention, which is constantly ignored. Internal factors are mere after math of the external foreign intervention, first being colonialism.
Point "Have Somali seas become an international playground for self-serving Western navies - testing arms, protecting illegal fishery or just polishing up their international image?"
10:17 we’re only afraid of one thing Something much worse than cannons and bullets: hunger There you go!!! The actual roots of the problem Help them to make their livelihood protect their sea treasures You can eliminate the piracy problem
The western countries should be ashamed of them selves for illegally fishing out Somali waters. And the navies of those countries are a disgrace by protecting the foreign trawlers that have no business there in the first place. I suppose a country that is so poor they have only one boat in their entire coast guard, is a very easy country to take advantage of. I hate to sound like one who promotes lawlessness and piracy on the high seas, but the Somali people, including the pirates, are more so the victims than the cargo ships they are riding. Being a wealthy country does not give anyone the right to take advantage of the less fortunate.
Somalia is not what people think, they not bad but time put them in that situation of piracy. is a great country which has diverse ancient, there is lots of opportunity and is good for Tourist. As the mater of the fact: The country destroyed by western world because they were greedy for Somalia's recourses, Khadafi and his allies agreed on that in order not to be explored OIL/GAS in Somalia, there were a good relationship between Libya, Saudi Arabia and Italian mafias. in other hand: Chevron founded many walls in Somalia they covered on top with cements. You know OIL is like a river running under so If Somalia explore these countries will produce less OIL because their OILS will flee down to Somalia as Scientist said and Somalia is a virgin country still it's but these colonial never get chance to steal the wealth, that what our great forefathers die for. Our beloved President Siyad BARE refused to take 40% of OIL contracts, he says: 70% or more. Somalia got tribal conflict for centuries which did not get a chance to solve and these countries started supporting the oppositions to get rid of the Bare administration, then the government collapsed and the country begun Civil war which destroyed the whole country, also caused lost of many lives. There will be a good solution if Western get off their hands in Somalia!! They still interfering tho!! Maybe one day Somalia will restore peace and prosperity once again. By: Prince
nono nonowaay they are not fishing international water but they always come to somali water and steal our fish but we will send them to the cemetery you and others who are ignorant
Utter nonsense! Those naval ships are there to counter piracy, not protect illegal fishery. They protect all against pirates, as it should be. Would you expect them to give hostages to pirates simply because they're fishing illegally?
+katkoot229 Because the European navy has nothing to gain from protecting illegal fishing. They do protect illegal fishermen but only in the interest of preserving human life, not to condone illegal fishing.
+Kristian Brandt utter nonsense! What are your talking about preserving humanity? Country as poor as Somali at least they have the right to fish. They don't even get that from international countries instead of helping the country they let their companies fish in somali waters what do you expect is the outcome? No country accepts illegal fishing, why should somalis ?
+Saaxib M I'm not saying they should, I'm saying the NATO navy is there to inforce anti piracy laws, not to catch illegal fishermen. If you allow pirates to make hostages out of fishermen, illegal or not, while countering piracy you're being somewhat counter productive. And while the NATO ships a very big, very heavily armed and carrying a crew made up of mostly special forces, there are only a small handful of them covering an area the size of Europe. Imagine Whale Wars, then edit out the big Japanese ships and replace them with tiny pirate ships disguised as fishing boats. Then give them more than one objective. See how catching both pirates and fishermen in such a vast sea is somewhat hopeless? Catching illegal fishermen is a job for the local coastguard.
Leave us alone they said there is a pirates lovers of our distruction.when u have alot of resource u become the stadium of all over the world. Stand up somalia
lastchip lol 'take help from infidels'. The last thing your beloved 'Murica does in islamic countries is help them. Truth is indeed painful like the truth that your western armies are fleeing lands like afghanistan after investing trillions of dollars, technology and manpower against simple folk with sandals and goats. Oh and we do indeed pray to God that is and the prophet you so hate has your 'infidels' running and fleeing with all its resources and manpower. Oh make sure you dont choke on that porkie sandwich of yours. Ta ;)
instead you should be glad they're poor enough not to nuke your country while you keep enjoying their natural resources and blaming them for everything
MiniCooper campbell it's not anyone else's fault they are useless, low-iq, brainless, pathetic, low-life imbeciles that do nothing but rape and kill each other. they are hopeless and should be eradicated. they created and invented nothing and are a burden on society. they might aswell be dead and rape their children.
thetoughguy jr. hey toughguy i am sure you wouldn't be acting so tough if you were captured by them and talking about eradicating the U.S elite Marines have tried that but the world witnessed the aftermath
These poor somali fisherman are being forced to become pirates. They also have been forced to kill some of their hostages. They didn´t really want to do it, but they had no choice because the ransom wash´t paid or delayed.I am sure that the dutch TV crew and their families would have shown utmost sympathy if they themselves would have been taken hostage on the spot while filming. In fact it´s a little bit egoistic to not offer this to the pirates. Many families could have lived from that ransom.
Because of us these poor people are hungry. The civilized world should point the finger at themselves and actually help these poor fishermen, Somalia and Africa in general instead of shooting at them for trying to feed themselves and their family.
only thing is somalia. needs to learn. If you drive foreigners away. less approvements for the country. Think of the tourism money, think of the business that will look to build in somalia if they got there act together. Though that will not likely happen.
TheBlazersfan22 i watched the other documentary. there were jobs for somalia before, was a tourist spot, theres nice luxury hotel...but those terrorists and the government have ruined that country...poor somalian...my heart breaks for them...
for my side openion the people of somalia are like us too,they need an good governance and great lawfull to be survive in everyday needs.we must understand one of us need an helping hand to carry on.we fight for the right and always make believe that we we're not alone,rise your hands in goodness into magical world.
"Ownership' isn't the issue, stealing is." I think scarcity is the issue. It would be fine if there was enough to go around. I couldn't blame someone for taking that land and the resources away from them...
lol After American special forces were killed and dragged in black hawk down, who will take the land resources away from them? the Largest coastline in Africa cant be stopped. Its time to stop Illegal fishing that started Pirates'
Best imaginable solution would be to arrange "Pirate Hunting Tourism" and let good people pay several thousand $ for the privilege of hunting these monsters with a 50 cal. Donate the proceeds to the pirates' victims.
we dont need the international comunity we neeed u to leave us alone u fcked over us long enoug, u took our land and gave it to our worst enemy, u terrorized us and dumbed nuclier waste on our coasts after takin all the fishes. and today u breaking up somalia even more and tryin to give our sea to aidstopia.
Those naval fleets were not meant to assist Somalia in arresting its criminals but to deter piracy where cargo ships pass by. I guess they are pretty much successful as there are no more reports of piracy in that area.
Here's the BEST solution: If illegal fishing vessels are causing Somali fishermen to become pirates, then why don't the pirates just target the illegal fishermen? Rob them of their valuables and maybe even their fish/catch! Just leave the merchant vessels alone. You not only take care of the illegal fishing vessels, you also keep navies off your ass. Then, when the illegal fishing vessels get discouraged from fishing off Somalia, the fish will restock and you can go back to fishing. Everybody happy!
They have been doing this for many years and arresting illegall fishing vessels taking the fish or demended them taxes which they releazed them freely later without harm. but untill illegall fishing fleets armed themselves and fired any Somali fishermen, destroyed their fishing boats to prevent arrests or taxation. after that fishermen couldnt no longer fish any more ,illegalls came from all over the world with huge numbers things gone out of control as they also armed themselves. Nuclear Toxic waste which was another big problem since 1994 that killed may coastal people and animals. those people their lives was completely destroyed they made several demostrations for many years but totally ignored. They later regrouped them selves and declared volunteer coast guards to stop waste dumppings and and illegall fishing vessels
The solution is so much cheaper than keeping naval forces on guard. Help them with food and employment programs. This makes me think that the navies and private mercenary companies don't want to solve the problem. The navies get to train and test weapons, as was stated in the video, and the mercenary companies get lucrative contracts. I don't think either wants to really stop the pirates. It's bad for their businesses.
3:09...sadly my friend all the fishing through out the world has been wiped out.....your not alone. Sadly most people don't realize the sea is now dead?
@@edrooney9580This is Northern Somalia and it's mainly arid which is why 90% of the population lives along the coast. Southern Somalia is much more tropic, green and humid and also has rivers but it's mainly occupied by terrorist groups and the Central government's authority is basically abysmal and also a touch of a man made famine.
The subtitles are completely wrong. Wow. Unbelievable, I better be careful when I read subtitles with other languages, seriously not be quick to believe
Talk about a propirate film, the people who has done this has no problem with the pirates murdering people. just the phrase selfserving navies, give me a break a naval unit goes to where it is commanded from the Admiralty and the politicians.
The real hijackers are the ones who do illegal overfishing , dump toxic waste and taking advantage in a weak ,hungry and dying country ,It's makes me want to vomit !
150 men in that little room. I half don't blame the pirates. If they get paid just one ransom they and their family are freed from that living hell for ever. What would you do if you were hungry?
If they're not afraid of bullets and only afraid of only one thing: hunger, then why are so many of them putting their hands up, allowing themselves to be captured?
It is difficult but the best way to avoid this issue escalating in the future is to never pay the ransom money however important. The extra money in the hands of the pirates will just make these situations happen more frequently, larger scale and more damaging consequences.
Somalia is not dangerous; and piracy is only way to stop bullies. Those vessels coming and stealing are dangerous to Somalia. Anything necessary to stop thieves’ I will support. Free Somalia from foreign thieves
I'm very upset what happened to my Country and i shared my apologise to International Ships i am optimistic and i say International community One day Somali piracy and Terrorists will end and Somalia will share Prosperity to the World Because there is a change we have thousands of Generations graduated abroad universities
some observations 1 why are the journalists only referring to the hijacking of fishing boats when there are hundreds of examples of the pirates hijacking cargo ships, oil tankers and even small private yachts. 2 How much did the journalists pay for their bodyguards and contacts? 3 How much did the journalists pay the chief of police to get into the prison? 4 Why does the chief of police say that there are 150 men in that room, when it looks to be holding only 15?
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I SAW THE SOMALIA PROBLEM ITS TO HARD BECAUSE THERE COUNTRY IS VERY SAD TO KNOW EVERY LIVING NO JOB FOR FAMILY LOOK THE PLACE WHERE THEY LIVE ROAD STREET ONLY SOIL NO CONCRETE ROAD ITS HARD TO SAY VERY POOR BUT EVERY BODY SAW THIS OR WATCH THIS VIDEO OF SOMALIA PLACE THEY NEEDS HELP THIS COUNTRY SOMALIA LUCK OF JOB.. EMPLOYER NEEDS IN THIS PLACE ..VERY SAD ...
It's pretty appalling what's happened. Nevertheless, this documentary is bang on. A major power could patrol the fishing area for illegal fishing. However, there is to much fun to be had and weapons to test. It's as cynical as this.
Actually not just Arabs, but all Eurasians. Horn Africans have the highest amount of out of Africa genetic diversity. This is why some Eritreans, Somalis and Ethiopians come out as having more than 80% sometimes 90% Eurasian autosomal traits genetically. It's because they represent the African ancestors that left Africa and populated the rest of the world!
So that how things are ?!! Glad to see someone speak what he really thinks ,and I think that many thinks like you ,that should give us more perspective on what's going on in your heads .Okey time to be less naive I guess ,for muslims I say remember :"The Jews and the Christians will never be pleased with you unless you follow their ways. Say, ‘God’s guidance is the only true guidance.’..."(Qur'an 2:120)
Which Western nation allows others to fish in their waters. What happened in Somalia also happens in India also. The Italian marines gunned down Indian fishermen. No action was taken against them.
there is no mention of the illegal fishing piracy, hazardous waste dumping or the plight of the Somali fishermen, Justice and fairness have been overlooked in these twin problems of FISHING PIRACY and SHIPPING PIRACY
