I don't understand why people think anything needs to happen here. This is normal freedom of navigation. If anything, this is a pretty weak gesture (sending ships slated for retirement in a couple of years) and probably a signal from us military that they want to dial down the tension.
Seeing this last couple of months it’s a useless gesture by the US & Co., it saddens me personally I have to pay taxes for this shit show called “freedom of navigation”. On top I have to pay through taxes some mothers crippled sons medical costs at the VA hospital due to his pointless adventure in war by the govt. In the end there was no fu*kin net gain talk about pissing on your money. As a businessman no body can quantify and justify this in any way to me and still keep a job.
