101. where's your Navy ships now?
are they in range or not? You're assumption is that they will be out of range...but as we speak, Navy ships are INSIDE the Strait...easily within range.

We haven't taken a DEFENSIVE action since Pearl Harbor, buddy. Read up on American history. We like to fake incidents, overturn governments covertly, assassinate political rivals domestically and in foreign nations, and do things BEHIND the scenes. Nobody's attacked the U.S. since then...yet we've fought countless wars. Read "A Country Made by war" or William Blum's "Killing Hope".

Your vision of a virginal, maiden-like U.S. which only fights in "DEFENSE" is completely wrong. It's the other way around. We've been very imperial in nature.

Your jingoistic fantasies do not match up to reality. I don't know nothing about Counterstrike. It doesn't apply to our discussion.
