>Somalian boarding for inspection and collection of fees (which other countries call piracy)
for it to not constitute piracy it should be performed using guided missile destroyer, not an inflatable rubber boat.
i somehow don't see how actions of Somali pirates wouldn't be considered as such even if it happened inside the 12 miles zone. Piracy inside or outside of territorial waters is still a piracy.
Compare that to a hypothetical situation - if Somali could gather a presentable navy and start harassing ships outside of the 12 miles zone and a presentable looking spoke-person would communicate some theory why it is a right of Somali people - then we'd have just a legitimate territorial dispute :)
