I gave you proof that terrorists can get throught eh US Navy. Does that anger you?
If you need another example, use 9-11.
Get your facts straight, alwright. US presence gives no guarantee of safety. None. I would think it is a deterrant, but terrorists have already proved they are willing to not only attack, but directly attack the US Navy. So what point are you trying to make? Are you trying to go back and now realize that this is a major concern for the area? If so, good job, and you can go put your head back in the sand now.
