Amazon 7 #51 June 3, 2010 Quote>Your analogies are crappy and worthless . . . It's funny how the analogies that people can't answer without revealing something they don't want to reveal are "crappy and worthless." If they were really crappy and worthless, you wouldn't be spending so much energy trying to evade them. >Is a blockade imposed during a war an unusual action? Not that unusual, no. North Korea is at war with South Korea, so a North Korean ship boarding a US military ship headed to South Korea would not be that unusual either, eh? >Is your problem that it is Israel imposing that blockade. Nope. They have every right to do so - within their own lands and waters. The problem arises when they try to do so outside the area they control. I would say they are doing a pretty good job of controlling access in the waters off Israel. Israel does not have similar claims that we do but how large an economic exclusion zone does the US have again??? Ever been boarded by the US Coast Guard??

If they were really crappy and worthless, you wouldn't be spending so much energy trying to evade them. and sometimes the analogies just suck. Just because you can't rebut it doesn't mean it sucks.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll answer your crappy analogy. It would not be unusual. It is an ordinary part of war (even in international waters). It is a really good incentive to not let yourself be so militarily weak that your enemy can impose such a blockade. That's right, it is good to have more might. Very good indeed.People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
