Once upon a time, there wouldn't have been much left of Venezuela if they'd provoked Germany like that.

Perhaps this thread belongs with the aluminum boat thread, rivets versus welded. Should have brought a bigger boat.

Pres. Maduro is under indictment for drug trafficking with a $15 mill reward offered by the US. He probably wanted the cruise ship for his own personal use, or maybe as a way to move drugs internationally.
The article says the cruise ship rescued the navy sailors. They should have let them go down with the ship.

Probably been a while since a Portuguese flagged ship won a naval engagement.

Remembering a bit of Great War action in the Faulklands. 1914. When another German liner mounted a muzzleloading siege mortar they mounted midship (found in old emplacement on the island) and shot Kerosene soaked Welsh anthracite onto the wooden deck of a British Cruiser. German captain was a big fan of Lord Admiral Nelson!
The story of Mimi and Toutou on Lake Tanganyika is another good one. (The Basis for Forrester’s novel, "The African Queen”.) Look it up.

Back in the late 70's my cousin bought a 76 chevy siverado pickup and wanted a good bumper for towing farm machinery. So I built him a farm bumper to be proud of. Fast forward about 3 months and he is in the city one day waiting for the stop light to turn green and feels a push that moved his pickup about 2 ft forward. Jumps out of his pickup to see what happened and there is a car sitting behind him with the hood, grill, and radiator all laying in the street in a mangled mess. He looks at the back of his pickup and the hitch is wet from going through the radiator and the paint is scratched on the bottom side of the bumper and that is the extent of the damage for him. Mess with the bull and you will end up on the short end. Still trying to figure out why they were messing with a cruse ship though. Somebody was bored and wanted to play, unfortunately they lost.

It sounds like a cleansing is required for Venezuela. I hope we get to it soon. We cannot allow Iran a foothold on this side of the world.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Another success for socialism. Will the Venezuelan cpt get the everybody-is-a-winner medal for valentry while claiming the German cruiser ran into him, or will he “disappear” by tomorrow?

Lol, if your navy can’t best a cruise ship, you might be a third world s#it hole....... Like when somebody's playing who's bladder, and banging their head against the wall. But, the wall ain't drywall.. It's concrete block. I guess the loser would be really pissed off.
