The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

This, of course, invites the musical question, will the Pirate King hijack Russian flagged ships, because they carry Venezuelan oil, the way he hijacked a legitimately Panamanian flagged ship?
