    An unarmed what? What kind of ship was it? Headed to where? To be armed to with what? To do what?

    The war is not justifiable. But given the context that frigate was done the moment it sailed.

      An unarmed what

      Ship, with human lives on it

      What kind…

      Unarmed. Vulnerable.

      Headed to where

      Home port which still doesn’t justify sinking an unarmed ship

      To be armed…

      To do what

      Then it might be fair game if this war was legitimate but it isn’t. It was only done the moment it sailed because Americans are war criminals and the bad guys.

        I understand this isn’t necessarily hinged on just the legality but it is fair game under the laws of warfare even if the war is an illegal one.
