I would not be surprised to hear that tonight (and it is night there already) that a team of SEALS came up from underneath the boat and took the pirates down.

I hope that occurs and that the brave captain is saved.

We could also use non-lethal weaponry from a distance to incapacitate everyone in the boat if it has been delivered to one of our vessels on the scene...also likely to occur at night.

IMHO, we can not...and must not...allow another large vessel that the pirates have taken, with hostages from another nation, to approach close to the location of this situation before acting.

Once we resolve this issue, we should come down on every possible location these pirates are located like a ton of bricks and end this decisively, annihilating any of these pirate bands and those who support them.

Nonlethal gas would be tough on the ocean with the winds.

Works nicely in enclosures like buildings and planes, etc.

Stun grenades would probably work if placed just right.

Anyone look at this boat? It is like a giant orange thermos on its side.

Phasers on Stun!

You really think zero would order this? I don’t. It is what should be done, but the odds of it happening are vanishingly small...
