Most people envision pirates as rum-toting, parrot-holding masters of the sea.
From the story reported today, it doesn't seem so.

The U.S. Navy boarded an apparent pirate ship in the Indian Ocean and detained 26 men for questioning, the Navy said Sunday.

...

Sailors aboard the dhow told Navy investigators that pirates hijacked the vessel six days ago near Mogadishu and thereafter used it to stage pirate attacks on merchant ships.

There's a book out there called something like nine true storys of modern day piracy.
I've heard a couple stories like this. Just a little while ago I heard about how some crew members aboard a cruise ship fought off some pirates.
Pirates do exist, it's hard to police international waters.

And yes they are pirates. Pirates hijack ships. It's what they do.

Well, at first I thought to say Pirate: 1, Ninjas: 0, but then I realized the Ninja's just aren't getting caught, so Ninjas: 0, Pirates: -1

yeah some pirates got a bit of there own a little while ago in the asia region when a crew saw the ship coming and thought that i might be pirates so all prepared for an assault and they were almost sunk and had to limp away. see a 50 cal is a good weapon of choice for a ship and amrour peircing rounds as well

The captain of the Dhow/sloop pirate ship probably thought he could beat the destoyer's captain at a sword fight.

I do not recall ever hearing about the U.S. Navy capturing a ship full of Ninjas..... so point to the Ninjas in coolness
