Once in a foreign port our navy ships were given a bomb threat that a scuba diver was going to attach a limpet mine to one of the ships. That night all the ships in the fleet at dock left their sonars running. The shock wave is so strong nobody could have swam up to the ship, (and nobody got a nights sleep either)

Somehow I think a Navy that is prepared to fight anybodys nuclear fleet is not going to run scared of a dozen Islamokazis in a tin can with a homemade bomb.

What ever nation that that bathtub ports out of might loose a port. Bathtubs don't go far and we need to stop acting like chicken little.

Human guided sleds with explosives. Wow, a Barney Rubble torpedo. The only reason they need people to guide them is they are too stupid to program a computer to do the job. Lucky for them their "army" is too stupid to say no when the sled is presented as the latest super weapon of the caveman mind.

You know if we ever actualy went to war with the states that sponsor these brain dead folks it would not seem so important to blow up a ship. They think they have plausable deniability using these terrorist fronts. Nuke Mecca with a ICBM 15 minutes after the next WTC and say "wasn't us" God must be pissed with ya-all.

What they going to do? They do not even have radars that can tell where it came from!

It's "LOSE a port!" Your pants are loose. Taking you belt off makes them LOOSER. But I am not calling you a LOSER for spelling "LOSE" incorrectly.

Sorry. It's a pet peeve that's running rampant around here.....the language is devolving.

Do you have any idea what the effect of a nuclear detonation at 100 or 200 feet below the surface, two miles off of Manhattan would do? Terrorists attacking our Navy is not even what al Qaeda is about, now that they've seen how slaughtering our civilians in cities stuns us.
