...the hijackers have been encouraged by ransoms paid in previous ship seizures.

'These pirates are terrorists and there is no need to negotiate with them.

'Attacking them will solve future piracy plans.'

Worked for Jefferson and Monroe on and off the "Shores of Tripoli", when dealing with other Mussleman pirates.

With modern technology, shouldn’t the whereabouts of this ship be easily determined?

'The French and American ships must attack the pirates. They have our blessing,' Mr Ghelle said

When a 288’ yacht gets hijacked warships are dispatched to the area, but if it were some poor schmuck in their 33’ sailboat they’d just be lucky to escape with their lives.
