yes , but we can't do that 'over there' !
They are good little Malay and Indonesian muslims!
If we start messing with them they couldn't be busy pumping out more little muslims , and their countries could never allow that!....

I completely understand that. Actually, I suspect that much of the piracy is looked upon favorably by these governments. The pirates take a larger piece of the shipping pie than either Malaysia, or Indonesia can. The vast majority of these ships just cruise on past the ports of these countries on there way to Japan, China or the United States, the pirates take a little cut for the non-producing Muslim countries in the way.
