there is no such thing as Somali piracy, ignore the psyop

Ever since a civil war brought down Somalia's last functional government in 1991, the country's 3,330 km (2,000 miles) of coastline — the longest in continental Africa — has been pillaged by foreign vessels. A United Nations report in 2006 said that, in the absence of the country's at one time serviceable coastguard, Somali waters have become the site of an international "free for all," with fishing fleets from around the world illegally plundering Somali stocks and freezing out the country's own rudimentarily-equipped fishermen. According to another U.N. report, an estimated $300 million worth of seafood is stolen from the country's coastline each year. "In any context," says Gustavo Carvalho, a London-based researcher with Global Witness, an environmental NGO, "that is a staggering sum."

In the face of this, impoverished Somalis living by the sea have been forced over the years to defend their own fishing expeditions out of ports such as Eyl, Kismayo and Harardhere — all now considered to be pirate dens.

"We are under attack by the Houthis!"

"Damn that sucks, good luck tho"

I like how they put a picture of XI as if he was personally listening to the signal

China has been ignoring our distress calls for years

That's not piracy, therefore they are correct to not engage.

Three Chinese navy ships in the vessel’s vicinity chose to ignore the 59 distress calls from the Israel-linked ship, Pentagon press secretary Air Force Brig. Gen. Patrick Ryder said

Lmfao

Didn't ansarallah officially declare war? This isn't piracy

China seems to be taking a "I won't kill you, doesn't mean I have to save you" stance in regards to Israel.

"Chinese naval captain refused to enter a war between two other countries by interfering with a Yemeni naval engagement" doesn't have the same ring to it

China is just responding to Yemeni Sanctions

Why would China take risk of having it's soldiers killed over this silly shit.

China:

not my problem

I like how this picture dort of implies xi was on board and waving to them

incredible

NOT MY CIRCUS, NOT MY MONKEYS

HOLY

Even the stuff at coast of Somalia is just coast guarding

Just in case anyone doesn't want to go on twitter.

"What the... That ship is getting hijacked! That's not normal... Oh well, not going to ruin my day."

Damn Israeli ships are not having a good run of it lately
