re: #349 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds

They’re threatening to close down the strait because we’re not simply threatening, but preparing to engage in, economic warfare. What, did you think we could enact stronger sanctions and they would do nothing in response?

Isn’t that part of the price we pay being part of a global society? If they’re acting like an ass should the rest of the world have to sit back and take it? If they want to continue to play with us (the US and Europe) then they have to learn to play by the rules we establish. Nobody owes them a dime in trade, if they want it they have to act like it.
