send that big beer w/tha drink
On a serious side....there is NO WAY any of those boats should have been allowed to get within 200 yds of the US Ships. They should have been blown out of the water as soon as they approached in the manner they did and with the radio threat they gave. We need to take agressive stances with these f'ucks and let the chips fall where they may.

That's the problem. The skippers are so afraid to do anything because the politicians will want to string someone up, if people(the enemy) are killed. The rules of engagement are nuts. They have to blow a hole in the side of your boat before you can respond. Being a former SEAL, I can tell you, having to sit down for a briefing from a LAWYER, before you go in the field, does not instill confidence in your leadership.

I believe enemies of this country know that even with the outstanding men and women of our armed forces, coupled with our firepower which is second to none, we will mire in our political infighting and posturing amongst ourselves to the detriment of the security of this country.
