Pirate Attack on Arms Ship

Most days I face the world with a song on my iPod and a smirk on my face. Pirates off Somalia? I can’t care about everything—apathy first! But occasionally even I and the Great Powers see the need for action. The pirates go too far when they interfere with the free flow of illicit arms.

clue:

The ship whose capture finally got countries talking about collective action was apparently illegally carrying weapons for rebels in Sudan.

give me a clue so sweet and true
