The Captain is Free. What Now?

Captain Phillips is freed. Horeeeey. Victory to navy seals and Barack Obama. But is this over? No. The only solution (there is no silver bullet solution) is to root out the pirates' land bases in Harardheere and Eyl and wherever else in Somalia, to assist the government of Somalia to train their own navy forces. Though this was a tragic incident, it refocuses the attention on Somalia's plight.

YES! It is sucess story to tell but it is too far to be over, because right after the navey seals freed Philips the pirates attached and damaged American Cargo Ship and hijacked more than three. This is a ridicules, international Community has to stand up and give great support financially to the federal institutions in Somalia so the Somali government been able to rebuild their security forces and take care their teritorial integrity from the criminals such as the piracy, ilegaln fishing and dumping the chemical and nuclear waste in their shores.Again internation community has to stand up before it is too late.
