In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The 6th Fleet operates in the Med, centered around the USS Ford and it's air group. The fleet also includes three amphibious warfare ships and about 1800 Marines.

After all, with the living hostages released, Israel, or it's tools, don't need to use any restraint.
