An American warship and multiple commercial ships came under attack Sunday in the Red Sea, the Pentagon said, potentially marking a major escalation in a series of maritime attacks in the Mideast linked to the Israel-Hamas war.

β€œWe’re aware of reports regarding attacks on the USS Carney and commercial vessels in the Red Sea and will provide information as it becomes available,” the Pentagon said.

The British military earlier said there had been a suspected drone attack and explosions in the Red Sea, without elaborating.

Though Biden isn’t handling the duties of his office for obvious reasons we can certainly know every nation leader knows who their contact person is in Washington....though we don’t.

Things are what they are I see politicians all over the world in the Middle-Moderates and people more Patriotic-Nationalistic in Israel for example.

Jews living in Judea and Samaria cannot be sold out in any deal with Saudi Arabia that would be wrong IMHO.

In other words no Palestinian State in “the West Bank”.

Wheeling and dealing with Saudis leads there IMHO.

......we grew up in the country and dug caves in the tall bank of a creek and played cowboys and Indians. That was at 10 years old approximately. At 18 he was dead from a gunshot to the head. He was a marine on patrol. I forgot where.

I just promised him long ago that I would bring up his name at every opportunity. It’s like a teaspoon of water out of the Pacific Ocean but is meaningful to me. Thanks for your comment.

I’m almost certain that is since Oct. 7.

The attack on our ship and the commercial vessels was quite a dustup: 3 commercial vessels hit by ballistic missiles, plus the Carney shot down 3 drones.

Note uncrewed rather than unmanned. We can't hurt the feelings of non-binary robots.

How would the terrorists know where our ships are?
They have to be given the details from Iran and Yemen etc.
Tell those leaders to stop or we send our weapons thru the windows of their offices.

If Regan or Trump were President there would be.

When Reagan was President, Iran attacked one of our warships.

Reagan took out one half of Iran’s navy.

Problem solved.

Trump told the head of the Taliban that he knows where he lives.

Problem solved.

Not one American soldier was killed for 18 months.

Then Biden came into office.

Taliban hesitated but soon realized Biden was a weak leader.

So they bombed the gate and killed 13 of our Military.

And scores of civilians

Our guys had a bead on the suicide bomber, but Biden’s Gender Aware Top Brass wouldn’t give approval.

One of the first spilling of Blood soaking Biden’s hands

Now there are 10’s of thousands.

Drug deaths, border deaths, hundreds of rape rooms, rape “trees” etc.

No more mean tweets though!

Biden is a very beloved President!

By Xi, #CCP, Every despot leader in world, HAMAS, HEZBOLLZAH et al.
