#1 Thats a funny-looking BISMARCK, NELSON, IOWA-CLASS, or RICHELIEU, etc. iff there ever was one.

#2 Given the size of the carrier, it almost sounds like they're saying it was built out of asbestos...

#4 "asbestos-lined"? OK scuttle it in the deepest place they can tow it to.

#8 look for an unfortunate incident during the tow that cause it to sink....
better yet, paint one of the offensive MO-toons on it and let the seethers take shots at the MO-toon; enough and the MO-toon goes away.
