Good point.

What ever happened to the "al Quaida navy" -- pirated/hijacked ships they commandeered -- that was of concern a few years back?

From what I understand there are several sailing the Oceans of the world. There are lots of vulnerable shipping-lane targets. There was an interesting book published a year ago or so, The Outlaw Sea, by Langewiesche, that alluded to this potential problem.
