Poseidon's Pirate Adventure

This pirate thing is getting way too out of hand:
A US cruise ship carrying more than 1,000 people was targeted at the weekend by pirates off the coast of Somalia, maritime officials say. Two small boats chased and fired shots at the Nautica eight times, but failed to board the vessel. Her captain, Jurica Brajcic, manoeuvred away from the pirates and increased speed to outrun them.
If these idiots aren't stopped, they'll eventually get a hold of a cruise ship. And that will spark an international incident.
