The Somali Pirates and the European Union: What is wrong with
Operation Atalanta by European values
The EU has it's naval
forces of EU NAVFOR out in the Gulf of Aden in "pirate hunts" against Somali
fishermen-turned pirates. This EU sea adventure appears to be all military-navy
power - and nothing else to address the root causes of "Somali piratcy,"

toxic waste dumping. Also offers call to retool Operation Atalanta's
mission to protect the Somalis' waters - and lessons for future missions.
