    They were attacking commercial vessels. Military has none of those.

    Do you even know what the word “literally” means?

      Terrorists attack commercial ships, US responds to protect them, they attack US ship.

      Yes, literally.

        Ok, you clearly either don’t or you think commercial and military are distinctions without meaning. Either way, I’m done with your wilfully obtuse ass. Have the year you deserve.

          Attacks were directed at US Navy ships responding to distress calls from merchant vessels, of which the 157 signatories to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea have an obligation to provide aid to.

          Not to mention SOLAS and UN maritime security obligations.

          But hey, random on the Internet who wants to support brutal authoritarianism knows better than the global community dedicated to helping protect people. Go run off and hide now.
