I think you right though, I don't agree with this peace corpsification of the US Navy either.
Nor should the Navy be using kindness as a weapon.
There is absolutely no need for these vessels to be military vessels, without guards of the supplies under arms, we could make sure that only the commies and leftists in Georgia got supplies, so that they would be strong enough to fight against the free Georgians, who are simply George Bush Puppets.
The NERVE.
ReCall all US military ships from Georgia. Send in GREEN PEACE, Rain Bow Warrior 4! ( sarc. off).
Well then just sit tight and wait.
I may not have worded my question right. I have no problem with armed vessels. My only question was why send the Command Ship? The Whitney is said to be the Flagship of the 6th Fleet. Doesn’t “flagship” mean there’s an Admiral on board? I was in the Army so I don’t know much about Navy ways. Using the Whitney, to me, would be comparable to an Army General moving his HQ to Georgia.
