British and French ships joined a US carrier group in a six-strong flotilla of warships which passed through the sensitive Strait of Hormuz, Britain's Ministry of Defence said.

Bring it on, Muzzies!
American Sovereignty
At least France and England are still with us and ready to put their butts on the line. Any other nations? Calling all friends of the USA. German ships? Italian Ships, Spanish Ships? Greece? Holland? Sweden?
We defy the muzzies and talk tough on the one hand and at the same time we allow them into the country by the thousands.
What gives?
I thought their military (specifically their Navies) had been pared back so much--by the Leftists--as to make them useless???
What gives?
If you were a foreign country that wanted to destroy the United States, you could attack America in a Pearl Harbor Style attack and get your butt kicked back all the way to Mecca.
. . . . . . . . OR
You could buy an American election.
What would it cost? It would be surprisingly cheap.
The American left hates America as it is. Find a reality style host that plays a leftist. Enable the left in the EPA, in the Pentagon, on Wall Street. Think of the damage these traitors could do if the President enabled them.
Would the press tell you that our President is NOT who he says he is? How do you know that Obama is a Christian? How do YOU know who Obama is?
Don't pay any attention to who Obama says he is, pay attention to what he does:
When Obama used the US Military to attack Libya, why would he risk impeachment for this obviously illegal attack?
Why did Obama veto the Canadian oil pipeline. ECO in Nebraska? Are you stupid enough to believe that? The Press apparently is.
US Oil drilling? It has essentially been shut down as much as Obama can. WHY?
Spending $Trillions on "STIMULUS." If you believe Stimulus you really are beyond STUPID. The press does.
Who is Obama? The press likes to say RECOVERY. The country is spiraling out of control to economic disaster and 24/7 those presstitutes still say "RECOVERY"!
Answer WHO IS OBAMA? With the observation: What would a Muslim financed by the countries do if he were made President?
The answer is a Muslim President would do EXACTLY what Obama is doing as he destroys America. The Average American thinks that this scenario is impossible, it can't happen they reason.
Anyone with an IQ approaching room temperature knows that things aren't right but they rule out the obvious: That Obama is a Muslim Trojan horse here to destroy the country. Of course the left protects their boy in office. The Presstitutes will tell any lie to protect him.
The Italian Navy is busy elsewhere.
Illegal traffic from Tunisia, Morrocco and Egypt is way up, and since most of them wind up landing in Italy, the navy has been deployed there to turn them back - or do the inevitable rescues and returns. (Wife’s cousin is still active duty there)
Spain, the good lord knows, they aren’t even defending their coastline, from what I have heard.
Greece is giving Turkey the old hairy eyeball over the Cyprus oil deposits and needs to reserve it’s (very small) navy.
It is factional infighting here as usual.
Makes you sick sometimes.
“Who knew they had any?
I thought their military (specifically their Navies) had been pared back so much—by the Leftists—as to make them useless???”
Option 1 - believe everything you read in the MSM.
Option 2 - find out for yourself.

The RN might not be as large as I’d like, but it’s far from useless.

Actually they've proved quite useful in the past especially when our systems were not exactly working as planned.
On February 25, 1991, during the first Gulf War, the Phalanx-equipped USS Jarrett (FFG-33) was a few miles from the USS Missouri (BB-63) and the destroyer HMS Gloucester (D96). The ships were attacked by an Iraqi Silkworm missile (often referred to as the Seersucker), at which Missouri fired its SRBOC chaff. The Phalanx system on Jarrett, operating in the automatic target-acquisition mode, fixed upon Missouri's chaff, releasing a burst of rounds. From this burst, four rounds hit Missouri which was two to three miles (about 5 km) from Jarrett at the time. There were no injuries.[8] A Sea Dart missile was then launched from HMS Gloucester, which destroyed the Iraqi missile, achieving the first successful engagement of a missile by a missile during combat at sea.
The British lion still roars when it needs to.

The problem is inside the beltway in Washington, DC. The enablers exist everywhere outside that cesspool. That needs to change!
Surely, their not there to fight? How can we take the EU seriously? They have enjoyed our protection since 1945, time for Europe to get off our dime.
Get stuffed EU, I never knew you.
