    A little history: In the Korean war a North Korean artillery position fired at them and the captain ordered to "delete" the hill with the position and so they did, The USS Ohio said over the radio "temper temper" and the USS Iowa captain said back "Don't be next". That was the power of the US navy, and still is.
