We wouldn’t have to protect shipping if the sand people were blown to their 72 Helen Thomas looking virgins for attacking cargo ships. There is also the knowledge that Chomo Joe will do nothing when some s hole dwellers can attack history’s most powerful nation and nothing will happen.

Why does the U.S. have to protect shipping when the ships aren’t American?

Freedom of the seas and world trade... globalism, pretty much.

The U.S. is one of the only countries in the world that has never ratified the current U.N. “Open Seas” treaty.

Iran is another one, for whatever that’s worth.

Bidenomics at work.

Build back better really meant, Tear is all down, then build it back better. They are in the tear it all down phase and have no plans to build back better.

The US does kind of have an interest in international trade.

Sure, but that doesn’t mean the U.S. has an obligation to protect foreign civilian vessels on the open seas. Imagine the typical case of a cargo ship passing through the Red Sea en route to the Suez Canal.

The ship is owned by a Danish company.
It flies a Panamanian flag.
It is traveling from Singapore to Rotterdam.

What the hell is America’s interest in protecting this ship?
