#2 We are responsible because we are not capturing and hanging the pirates - right there on the spot on the ships they attacked.
Schedule:
7 am - pirates attack
8 am - rapid response team counterattacks
9 am - trial begins
10 am - pirates hanged

#4 Actually, the counterattack at 8am should not leave enough left to hang, so 1 hr at most should be enough.

#5 The penulitmate goal, of course, being - 6:50 - "pirates" think better of idea, return to peaceful aquacultural pursuits.

I'm afraid the ultimate goal, as others have posited, is 6:50 - christians sleeping peacefully again, years after the forced and voluntary conversions following conquest by combined Ethiopian/Ugandan armed forces.
