Not that this is politically correct , but yep... it WOULD stop him from stealing...Not that it should be done or that its right, just effective... but wrong.

I am not saying that we should invade Somalia to find some pirate gangs I am saying that the ships that ply those waters should get protection from pirates by having gunships and armed guards with them.

I hate when people say that. There was no such thing as Al Qaida or the Taliban in the 80s.

Let me state what I know about criminals. They don't do it for living, they do it for power. They all want the adrenalin of the action as well as the power to be a bad guy. Nowadays, a bandit, drug dealer has an status and they like it. They are some kind of paralel power and they havetheir own rules to regulate their relations ship. Somali good people is trying to make their life better, the ones in the ship are just stupid bandits trying to get power.

Power isn't the solution, education is. BUT to have a breath moment to begin education you need to use the power. Here in the shanty towns we have the proof of it. Look at Hulk 2 movie. Part of it was run into a real brazilian shanty town, but the one under the eyes of the BOPE (a special police at Rio de Janeiro). With brute force and extensive operations they've the place now under control. Movies, novelas and series can be filmed there w/o fear. In counterpart, there are shanty towns that police still need armored cars to go inside. Once they have cart blanch to do as they did on the first one, the other places will be in line. However the false defensors of human rights have to step aside and let the men do their jobs.

Human rights are for humans. Pirates that are stoping men/women from their work, separating mothers and fathers from their childrens aren't human. Look at a highschool fight. First to stop the two young guys there you need force to get them separate, after that a talk and a lot of conversations can solve it and further prevent a new fight. But always in the first moment you need the brute force.

Neither group existed as such in the 80s. The Taliban formed in 1995. Al Qaida is a bit murkier, but it really came togther as a group in the late 1990s.

The organization name is different, but the players are the same.

Bin Laden and the Mujahideen was funded and armed by the CIA in the 80s, to fight the Soviets. Ronald Reagan praised them as freedom fighters. These exact same people are todays Taliban. So the Taliban was around in the 80's, it just was not called that until 1994.
