Are The Straits of Tiran international waters?

Far too much reading for me. I quit half way through it. Intersting topic though.

My dad was on sea duty on the Intrepid at the time, they were the last ships through the Suez Canal, the MiGs were buzzing the deck.

My old golfing buddy served on the original Intrepid from the start of WWII until the end, it was our only carrier that survived the war from start to finish.

I just told a story the other day of a merchant marine friend who couldn't go through the Suez because it was blocked with sunken ships, eventually he and some national guardsmen 'liberated' about 50 square miles in Lebanon in an officially unauthorized expedition.

Wow... even Barney Frank is on Hardball telling the truth about the blockade. It is an Israeli/EGYPTIAN blockade. He even called Hamas terrorists.

Wow!!!

I wonder how many Jewish voters are in Frank's district?

Someone probably finally told Barney that islamic sharia law calls for the decapitation of homosexuals.

It is Barney Frank's rewritten immigration policy that dictates that the state department can't deny a visa to someone even if they the subject has known ties to terrorist organizations.

PS; Concerning your thread about Haggard, would you be surprised to know that the studio musicians playing in the background are the same musicians you hear on Bob Marley albums? You hear what insiders call 'the A team' on nearly all the top albums for many years.
