# Erm, I don't see the analogy there
The 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 :)
