The Comfort is a US Navy ship. Its enroute right now.
Our Navy could stop shipping..
And here you contradict yourself. Last time I checked the US Navy was part of our military.
The Comfort is a Navy hospital ship providing humanitarian assistance only and a shipping blockade by the Navy does not involve boots on the ground. So yes, inartfully stated, but I understood what the original poster meant.
A Naval blockade is an Act of War. You do know that, right?
