Where's Captain Bunnypants?

A really good ending to the pirate story, with US Navy Seals rescuing that merchant mariner being held captive.

But why do I get the feeling that if Boy George had been in charge, he would have been strutting around with a Mission Accomplished banner behind him?

It also would be nice if we got beyond the somewhat comical "pirate" stuff and look at the absolute catastrophe that is Somalia and realize that the real issue is there and take out those problems.
