#3 Simple method to prevent repeat of USS Cole:

1. If Clinton state department offical tells you to refuel in Yemen or any other unsafe enviroment for political reasons, claim you had a fuel tank leak and don't want to foul their harbor. Take on fuel at sea from the nearest UNNS ship available.

Warships are at their most vunerable in port. Under no surcumstances should a US warship enter an unsecure port unless the ship is part of an invasion force.

#4 The best way to help ensure safe ports is to start putting entire fleets into port at the same time and then giving 72 hour open liberty and free beer to all the sailors and marines.

and then look the other way when they trash the place.
