This article will examine and evaluate the potential threat of maritime terrorism in
    Africa, in particular the threat posed at present off the Somali coast. Africa’s porous
    borders have provided an ideal conduit for the export of terrorism on land, and now
    its unguarded coastlines are a potential new thoroughfare for maritime terrorists to
    operate at sea. In Africa, the threat to maritime security and the proliferating threat
    of ungoverned spaces have lethally combined to spawn the major threat of piracy
    and now also the potential threat of maritime terrorism off the insecure coastline of
    Somalia. At the time of writing, the security threats and challenges posed by the
    rapid proliferation of piracy remains, and have continued to be so throughout 2009.
    As of recent, maritime experts observe that the waters off the coast of Somalia and
    the Gulf of Aden have emerged as the most dangerous zones for seafarers.
