Film review:
An American cargo ship carrying food to Syria was hijacked by Somali pirates. It was a small boat with four pirates. I was thinking, doesn't everyone in the United States have guns? How can such a big freighter, so many sailors, have no weapons at all? Even simple weapons killed these 4 pirates without heavy weapons.
The captain was hijacked, and the crew called the U.S. warship to come. The captain and the pirates battled wits and courage. The last few rounds of negotiations tricked the pirates into the U.S. warship, and then rescued the captain. Killing those pirates, leaving the little pirate leader behind, was caught and sentenced to 33 years. The whole country of Somalia is in a state of misery, and the worst thing there is is human life.
Now the cargo ships from China to Iran are protected by Chinese warships, so I have never heard of pirates robbing Chinese cargo ships.
