YupAnd the 'sailing away' thing is irrelevant, since a ship can change direction pretty easily.
That is superbly done though :)

I'm sorry, I can't let that go.That is utter bollocks, and ridiculous bollocks. For example "I hit you because your fist could easily change direction towards me"

The Argentines started a warand enemy ships get sunk in times of war.
It's amazing the lengths of distortion some people will go to in order to slag off conservatives.

Erm, I don't see the analogy thereThe only reason the direction the ship was going is even mentioned today is because an MP stated it was sailing toward the task force, when it wasn't. If he hadn't said that, nobody would even mention it because strategically, the direction in which a warship is moving at any one time gives no indication of its intention.
The ship was probably manouvering to line up an attack, therefore a military decision was made to sink it. Simple as that.
Blimey, military discussion on b3ta, whatever next :)
