The Blackwater vs. pirates scenario I was worried about is becoming a reality. Yet another place on Earth for mercenaries to get paid to act with total disregard for human rights.
I respect the grand traditions of piracy. I have no problem with private security guards using pirates found in the act of piracy for target practice. Now, were they to get pro-active, and start attacking suspected pirates on land, I'd have major human rights objections.
