Exactly. Our Navy really hasn't been called into the fight, save its air arm. Taking possession of these tankers, and Karg Island itself, is doable. The Navy would probably look favorably on such a challenge. Then we could make like Hugo Chavez, and give away the captured oil to the poor, or better yet, Israel!
