Take control of international waters and shipping routes by claiming:

-Suez Canal
-Panama Canal
-Malalka strait
-horn of Africa
-turkey strait that connects the black sea

This is the only way.

Serious question, is there anything that Trump could say or do in order for you to criticize him?

My guess is he stops there because it's the only one where a terrorist regime is currently affecting the global energy market.

I would have no problem with America taking over the Panama Canal though as we currently subsidize Central America through immigration.

Can we make Canada a state and Greenland a territory before we get into all that?

Because 1) we can’t and 2) that would result in everyone putting up tolls and essentially a massive global tax on everyone.

Waterways have been free and clear for the most part since the end of WW2 which has lead to incredible prosperity (via trade).

We are trying hardest to ruin that as we speak.

All this talk of power and control is giving me goosebumps and a lower rash.

The US Navy controls every sea or ocean in the world, therefore, the US Navy controls world trade. Do not ever forget.

The US Navy ensures freedom of navigation, it doesn't control anything

Are you?

We have our hands full w just the SOH and our military leaders are telling Trump to find an off ramp. It’s been months and we’re gonna get run off by some crappy drones.

When did Americans become such pussies? Remember the Roman days when people hailed their emperor after a campaign’s conquest that absorbed new lands?

We have a massive military so let’s use it. Are airlines complacent with aeroplane groundings?
