We'll need to take up references imigran radis spc The Tom Hanks movie “Captain Phillips” focuses attention – again – on piracy off the coast of Somalia. The movie, in which (spoiler alert) the bad guys get caught, unfortunately might lead you to think that this is a problem that’s been solved. After all, since the April 2009 seizure of the cargo ship Maersk Alabama, recounted in “Captain Phillips,” there has been only one hijacking of a U.S.-flagged vessel by Somali pirates, the February 2011 seizure of a U.S. yacht in which the Americans were killed. And Somalia’s other evils – the Shabab and its terrorist activities, for example – have taken over news headlines.
