They are calling this their "most audacious hijack to date", though I still think the Ukrainian weapons load was a great haul. Still, I'm sure there's many who would say the greatest threat they possess is the possible delay of video games.
The biggest mystery, and perhaps one that will cause a cursed band of undead pirates to be marauding soon, is the unknown shipment from Iran that the pirates returned for ransom before UN inspectors could see its contents. Please, though, they are pirates, behaving as pirates and doing things that pirates do. There's no need to compare them to terrorists.
