#1 First response: Fuck You

Second Response: If they come within 2 kilometers, sink them

Third Response: Fuck you

Rinse, repeat.

#3 if its a Burke, open up the 5" and let it work 2km. If its a PC, they have a Bushmaster 25mm mounted thats pretty handy at chewing up small RHIBs like the Iranians use.

#4 What are they going to do? Grab another absolutely stupid native or naturalized American who ventures into their country. It's long past the time to put our own 'citizens' on notice. You go to country 'X', you do it because you damn well won't be told you can't, well, you are on your own. Don't call us. Your choice does not make our country hostage to your self centered behavior.

#5 I like Darth's and Pliny's solutions.

As a spin on P2k, send them ValJar and Obola as hostages for them to hold until everything settles down; aka NEVER.
