Pirates, Ahoy! (Again)

More pirate shenanigans off the coast of Somalia, as an oil supertanker has been hijacked – two million barrels of crude oil, according to CNN International. Pirates, of course, have been cutting quite a swath of terror through the Indian Ocean of late. It seems bizarre to imagine pirates still operating on the high seas, but here we are. They’re still holding the Ukrainian arms ship that they captured in September, along with ten other vessels in their control.
