Hi CobaltBlue; Re: "The point being that they don't have to charter these babies, they already have them on lengthy (20 year) charters. So the fact that they need to charter MORE vessels should tell you something. Tells me something,
anyway.

Okay. Just suppose that I could prove to you that the Fast Sealift vessels (the ones that you think are shipping materiel to the Middle East) are mothballed right now, though ready for action when needed. Would that convince you that there is no build-up of US forces in Iraq, or are you so convinced of the accuracy of your view that no evidence would shake you? No need for me drag up the links if I'm just shouting down a well, LOL!!!

Come on, either challenge me to prove that the ships are mothballed or admit that no evidence on the planet would convince you that there is not preparation for war.
