Seems a little like the old west. I'd say more guns are needed.

Long text so I started skimming after half way through.

Seems like the old west to me with no one in charge. No country wants to take any responsibility so private organizations attempt to enforce the laws.

I see only one answer to the situation. All vessels involved in this pirated situation need to arm themselves with everything available. 50 caliber machine guns and torpedos would be a good start. Total anarchy on the high seas with everyone shooting at each other. Perhaps that will bring more attention to the situation.
