The French have done this three times so far (the latest being yesterday).

If you hijack ships, you get shot dead. Only message to send.
On the other hand, if they can't feed their kids any other way, are they going to keep on doing it? Of course...

Hmmm, if they can't feed their kids, but can afford boats that'll take them 400 miles off the coast, maybe their priorities aren't
right; but like every other optimist are hoping they'll get everything for nothing, failing that, asylum in a rich country!

This seems to suggest that people aren't doing this for food, but just to get
stinking rich.

Or just mount a few miniguns on the ships, rather than making them try to fend off attackers with a fire hose.

Full marks to the US Marine corps sniper that made the shot from a ships deck in mid ocean --- obviously a "Gibbs" type.
But the only effective way to protect the ships on this sea lane is an internationally backed convoy system with constant air cover.
