as awesome as this is.... i dont really have to tell you how deadly this could turn out..


The picture is of the five nuclear carriors.
Just like Battleship Row, Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941.
This picture was taken… the other day in Norfolk. The Obama Administration ordered 5 nuclear carriers into harbor for “routine” (?) inspections. Heads of the Navy were flabbergasted by the directive.
NORFOLK, VA. (February 8, 2013). The first time since WWII that five nuclear powered aircraft carriers were docked together.
USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69), USS George H.W. Bush (CVN 77), USS Enterprise (CVN 65), USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75), and USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) are all in port at Naval Station Norfolk, Va., the world’s largest naval station.

Sources stated that this breached a long standing military protocol in the Navy meant to avoid massive enemy strike on major US forces. (U.S. Navy photo by Chief Mass Communication Specialist Ryan J. Courtade/Released

We had nuclear carriers in WWII? Damn I had no idea. :spit:

But having the 4 in port at the same time is stupid. I don't count the Enterprise as she was deactivated in December and De-commissioning is beginning.

That sound like one of the dumbest military decisions i could think of....
Wtf, is our president trying to doom us, its almost like he is trying to.see how much he can getaway with, if he can pull that directive off in peace time, imagine what he could doom us to in wartime!

Or maybe he is planning a war, maybe he is just trying to get other countries alarmed into.wondering what he is doing, raising tensions

Either way, i don't like it
