The word "flotilla" is from the Spanish and translates to mean "formation of small war ships."

en.wikipedia.org

And, hell yes the U.S. would stop a boat with suspected terrorists on board, but would hopefully have waited until the ship was within U.S. waters. We definitely have men in this country who would go on suicide missions to defend their home land.

(Despite the fact The One disapproves, I still use the word "terrorist" and will continue to do so.)
