The Barbary Pirates required that all nations whose ships sailed the Mediterranean pay a protection fee. Jefferson was very hesitant to continue doing this. "Tribute or war is the usual alternative of these Barbary Pirates. Why not build a navy and decide on war?" he had said. Finally in 1801, the pasha of Tripoli had had enough and ordered the flagpole of the American consulate chopped down, clearly declaring war.
