Red Alert Somalia

The breeze swayed the hull, and as Somalia’s just-scheduled fishing season ended, fishing boats returning full of loads set off to return to the port.During the dry season in the seas around Northeast Africa, in the Gulf of Aden and the Somali Sea, the rare cool sea breeze brought rare coolness to the entire ocean after several months of trade winds, dispelling the dry heat of the sun, and evaporating the heat of the sea.

This kind of season is the favorite of every fisherman who goes out to sea. The calm sea is always likable. Whether it is a bard or an artist, the calm sea and breeze are a poetic and picturesque scene.

In the eyes of some people, this is life, although as the regime in Somalia becomes more and more stable, for civilians, life begins to change three times a day, but for some people, it means more and more difficult life.It's not that they don't have money, but they don't dare to spend if they have money, so they can only live secretly, and they are still the kind of life without hope.Because they don't know when they will be in disaster.

The strong Somalia is not good news for neighboring countries, and for these special groups that rely on the sea to survive, this is definitely the least favorite scene to see.Because they are pirates through and through, not pseudo-pirates who just pick up guns and occasionally appear in a cameo.Those people, put down their guns and went ashore, they were civilians, and now there is no such kind of pirates. With a normal life, coupled with the laws promulgated by the Somali government, those pseudo-pirates have become civilians.

Real pirates don't like the days of being obedient, for them.Luxurious life, rich life is the pursuit.And lost this day.To be an ordinary person, then work hard every month, with a fixed salary, and be a good child, this is not their life.Although this business has been difficult to do now, the pirates in Somalia have gone ten to nine, but there are still many traditional pirates active.

They can no longer escape the life of pirates, even in the months since the end of the Somali war.Their life has become more and more difficult, but they have been continuing such days.Of course, many real pirates have quit, and some pirates are still active.

For example, the well-known pirate organization "Somali Sailors" is also the most active and largest group of Somali pirates. This pirate organization has many advanced weapons, and it often travels two hundred nautical miles along the coast to find prey.And now.This organization is still active in the Horn of East Africa.

However, after the Somali navy began patrols to protect fisheries and combat pirates, Somali sailors could only reduce their external activities, and because of the large number of Somali fishing boats, they were easily spotted as soon as they went out to sea.Although I don't know them.But Somali fishermen, who are already very familiar with pirates, can see their pirate identity at a glance.The pirate ships that have gone out to sea many times will be detained by the Somali navy even if they have not even gone out of 50 nautical miles with the ship, and they will not even have the ability to resist.

just now.Due to the arrival of the fishing protection season set by the Somali government, fishing boats cannot go to sea.Fishing boats going out to sea will also return, and the affected area will reach the entire Gulf of Aden and the waters of Somalia. Therefore, many pirate organizations have begun to move around. In the past few months, they have no income at all, which has made their lives very difficult.Many pirate ships began to go to sea when the fishing boat returned.

The little leader of the Somali sailor, Ishag, took his six or seven men at the moment, and took a humble speedboat. From the base camp in Ella, he avoided the Somali navy ships all the way and approached away from the coast. One hundred and fifty nautical miles, this position is already a busy international shipping route.Go east for a hundred nautical miles, then left the Somali Sea and entered the Indian Ocean.

The sea is the area where they move. As for the Indian Ocean, speedboats like them are difficult to withstand the waves that approach the equatorial circulation, and they don’t have to run so far. Many ships from the Cape of Good Hope or ships from the South Indian Ocean will go here. , That is, you can be close to the coastline and avoid the Indian Ocean with complicated water conditions.

The term pirate appears countless times in movies and novels, making this term full of mystery, but after real contact with pirates, in fact, they are not written by the writer, nor are they squandering money in the city like other media reports. Drive around in a convertible.

Once an active place for pirates, it is located in north-central Somalia, in the middle of Nogargan Valley, the Garowe area, which is a distribution center for sex animal products. It is also the road from Beledven to Burao where it leads to Bossasso and Ella. Road junction.When the Liberty League started the unification war, this place has become unsuitable for the life of pirates.Although in the past, they were always in danger of being arrested by government forces, but they were rich and easy to handle. Those who were arrested were basically honest people, and these real pirates were taken care of.Life is also moist, put down the guns, come to this place to purchase, and have fun by the way.

Now these days are gone, although Eller still has a little room for them to live at this moment, but they are no longer as happy as they used to be.In the current pirate prison, the pirates are already the real pirates.

It's like the current Ishag, who doesn't feel any happiness at all. He sleeps at home every day, and he can't sleep peacefully. He is always worried about whether he will be caught in the next second.

I finally went out to sea. All I saw was the endless sea, not even a seabird. With him, eight pirates have been wandering at sea for almost a day without seeing a single ship. .

Holding a copycat mobile phone engraved with "madeinchina", except for the two people watching the wind, everyone else was playing with their mobile phones. This was the only way they could resolve loneliness at sea, and it was also their main entertainment item.

However, even though it is a mobile phone, the way of entertainment is very scarce. Just passing a few photos can keep them fresh for several days.And this yacht has a satellite phone, and the equipment inside is pretty good. They can access the Internet via satellite. Although the speed of the Internet is a test of people's patience, they still enjoy it.

"Oh! First of all, when we do the next big deal, we must wash our hands and quit, and give us some money to let us find a way of life. Then I don't know when the next big deal will come." It was a tired cell phone, and someone murmured in the quiet cabin.

"I want to do so much. Somalia is no longer suitable for us. There is only Yemen around. There are still some places to go, or to southern Africa. In short, it is basically impossible for us people to want a peaceful life now. No ID card."

"When the warlords fought in the past, this place was simply paradise. Now the country is unified and strong. As a Somali, it is worth to be happy, but our living space is gone. It is a contradictory reality."

"It's a pity that we are all pawns no matter what, even if we do a big deal, we will have some leftovers in our hands. How far can we go? We won't even have the ability to make a living, and we don't know where we will die. ."

"Recalling how powerful we were when we entered the city in droves, there are a few more in East Africa that can find out the huge and luxurious convoy that we used to be. When the government troops saw us, they had to take a detour. Now, Ugh!"

"That is, who dared to provoke Eller in the past, we are called a strong soldier, but now the government has no time to destroy it. If we people are worth a few missiles, now our life is long gone."

"Yeah, before we went out, all the women would come over. As long as we sent some beautiful clothes and jewelry, they were yours. Now, as soon as we go out, everyone shouts and beats, and then the police arrive. As if looking at enemies, we have no ability to really destroy their stable lives."

...

After someone opened the chatterbox, the people around couldn’t help but complain. For their career with today and no tomorrow, what they want is to have a comfortable life. If they are not even comfortable, what else can they pursue? of.

Every word is longing for the life before, but also disgusting for the life now.

After listening to the complaints of his subordinates, Ishag said at this time: "The past is dead. Who told you to not manage your money well? Look at how many people are like you. Now these people are living abroad. Good. The government is now guaranteeing the income of the fishermen. It really wants a stable life. After landing, it will find a way to restore the fishermen’s status. After all, that is also a way out. The government also provides free and interest-free loans for boat purchase subsidies. It’s fine if you don’t die. You can also find a woman to lead a stable life for the rest of your life."

Ishhag’s words are very realistic. The soil of life is declining every day, and the pirate industry has been in Somalia for a long time, otherwise the leaders above would not seek another way out.And if you don’t have money, it’s basically impossible to go abroad. It’s better to find a way to become a citizen, at least not to worry about starving to death like before.If you are industrious, you will have a house and subsidies. Marry a wife and a stable life will not be impossible.Now that there are fewer pirates, it is also because the government's policies are attracting them, and this has led to a large number of pirates completely reformed.

"Head, come up quickly, there is a big deal, we can still make a fortune if we don't make it." At this moment, the guard shouted suddenly.

ps: I still don't have broadband at home. I have no choice but to get the company to upload it. I have been busy for more than two hours before I have time to come to the computer.
