“Warships on standby after Indonesian quake”

 

In other words, “the survivors will be out in the open, a perfect time to attack.” Wouldn’t you want the HELPER ships on standby after a quake? Peace ships, food ships, cruise ships? It seems mean to call in warships at a time like this.

Warships are like for war dude, and people sorta get hurt in war. I bet they got doctors on board and carry bandages.

To add to what Kurt said, the typical Nimitz class supercarrier carrier can feed about 5,000 people 3 meals a day. It can produce tens of 1,000s of gallons of fresh water per day, and a half-dozen or more helicopters which it can sortie for rescue and evac operations. I think just one carrier might be the biggest SAR force ever assembled, so mebbe that's a good thing for the Indonesians...
