Pirates board US ship...pawn move.
Captain trades himself for crew...strategic bishop move.
Pirates take captain on life boat...pawn move #2
US crew retakes ship...strategic knight move
Lifeboat runs out of gas...pawn move#3. Pirates are clearly playing move to move.
Navy SEAL team had parachutes in and takes up positions on the Bainbridge's back deck...CHECK,
The on-scene commander responds appropriately and decisively to clear and imminant danger by authorizing lethal force. The SEAL's deliver from 75 feet, with night vision on the rolling seas...CHECKMATE.
Appartently the negiotations ended at that point. Pirates flip the board over screaming that somehow they were cheated and that revenge will be taken. Good luck next time - Not.
Admittedly I stole this, and tweaked it. As a chess player I love the analogy. I love when the good guys win. And it really irritates me that the real tragedy here is the Myth of Jack Sparrow is being tarnished by these clown!
