if they sunk a ship with 1000's of Americans that would be a huge "Beirut"..

They wouldn't be able to make it past our Navy's shipboard self-defensive systems.

Aren't we using cruise ships?

I hope they don't consider doing it. The US would not show half as much restraint as Israel if we were attacked (at least with our current CinC).

The system that protected the Cole from attack?
