If you remember, the early US destroyed the Barbary pirates for similar abuses. The U.S. destroyed the Barbary pirates because they were preying on American cargo ships.
If President Jefferson had authorized the U.S. Navy to protect Danish ships flagged in Panama or Bermuda and transporting cargo from Asia to Europe with crews of Filipino sailors, he would have been set on fire on the front lawn of Monticello.

The U.S. destroyed the Barbary pirates because they were preying on American cargo ships. They were also preying on ships of other nations. In 1815 US Navy ships teamed up with British and Dutch warships to fight the Barbary pirates.
