Big sounding story, but according to the fine print, we aren’t going to do anything.

The massive floating destroyerWell it is massive, so that it floats may shock some. The headline makes it sound like it isn't even under power.

Since when is a Destroyer a “massive” ship. They are used as life boats for Air Craft carriers.

It promised ‘100- or 1,000-fold’ retaliation if provoked.

If so,we could give them a 5 megaton retaliation.

Remember last week or so. This is the same ship that caught a Chinese sub in its towed array.

Massive? Destroyers have a nickname, Tin Can for a reason. Massive is the Ronald Reagan or any CVN ship. 5000 sailors in one ship. Small city on the move.

“The resolution bans North Korea from exporting a wide range of weaponry - but does not allow the US to forcibly board the vessel.
Instead, they would have to ask for permission - which, in all likelihood, would not be granted. “
So...we ask to inspect the ship...NK refuses and then that’s it? Welcome to the Era of Useless Diplomacy..
