Undeterred by U.S. and French hostage rescues that killed seven bandits

Funny, no French or American ships pirated. Seems like deterrence is working for the countries that kill pirates.

Right. The other countries pay tribute. Of course the Piracy is going to continue.

“Undeterred” would apply if they hijacked another US flagged vessel.

sorry but i think this is just luck that it have been no american or french ships. i don´t think the pirates care about the flag. btw. only because for example it doesn´t sail under US flag does not mean that no US sailors could be on board, or it´s possible that the freight is owned by an american company... trade is pretty international these days.
