Seriously? Because there are perfectly legitimate subsistence fishermen
using those ports, and merchant vessels, too. A harbor blockade could be
very effective.



Harbor blockades would probably bring on another Clinton fiasco of 1993. He
tried to push his luck following Bush I's humanitarian assistance and the
results were disastrous.

Somehow a means must be worked out to make the purpose of piracy (ransom
money) meaningless.

Violence is the only way. Piracy will continue until it becomes too
dangerous.
