the reason why those Somali gangs now operate in those waters is because of the european union fishing vessels which have basically destroyed their fishing
grounds - east and west africa is now the same - european union vessels are pilfering and pillaging those fishing grounds.
those Somali guys have no choice but to engage in those activities - their livelihood i.e fishing is gone.
meanwhile those EU guys were on the news over here yesterday evening - making their determinations about elections in 2009 - and it only shows how out of touch they are with the changing geopolitical face of this region - there is going to be no elections in 2009, and none until these issues governing electoral reform are completed - and as long as these continued obstacles are being thrown in the way i.e Qarase's court actions, interferences by the EU, the Aussies etc etc etc those elections are going to slip further and further away.
if these machinations continue - then this government will simply sit in for the long haul. 2020.
there is no stopping these geopolitical changes.
and not even the EU can stop it.
