This part is probably critical. The traditional way to keep troops out of trouble is to keep them busy, and that is a Leadership issue. Administration provides them with what is necessary to be productively busy. Strategy focuses their production into militarily useful goals.

The threat is that the pirates will think that if things get too bad they can sail away. That undermines the motivation for building walls instead of getting while the getting is good. Administration and Public Speaking may be important to getting the word out but this is, again, a Leadership issue.

Another point is that the absolute level of atrocity is likely less important than beating expectations. The civilians won't be a problem as long as it's obvious that an effort is being made. (Except for that one guy who turns into Batman because his <> was killed.)
