American warship attacked in the Red Sea

Post by MWmetalhead » Sun Dec 03, 2023 1:41 pm

This isn't good. Evidently, an organized terrorist group from Yemen is targeting Israeli and American assets.

The Middle East is a pressure cooker ready to burst.

Is the Red Sea on the U.S. border? Would this have happened if the ship wasn't thousands of miles from our border in a known pressure cooker? This is unacceptable, but we need to stop using troops as moving targets so we can rationalize entering conflicts.

So merchant ships should arm themselves?

Please don't expect me to read articles, the title was enough to motivate me to offer an uninformed opinion.

Hamas is looking for a jehad. Let's hope we aren't stupid enough to take the bait.

However, being in a military conflict will be helpful to Biden's reelection. So there's that.

Reading is quite an effort, apparently. Hilarious, but hardly surprising. :smokin

Perhaps transportation wizard "Mayor Pete" will reroute all commercial shipping traffic 'round the horn of Africa. That's just a slight detour, shouldn't add much to the cost of goods. Nothing to worry about. :lol

The Middle East has been varying degrees of pressure cooker since 5000 BC.

Merchant ships were armed in WWI and WWII.
