You lose the right to get given things peacefully when you invade. (See Falkland Islands)
As a UK citizen, I would happily hand Gibraltar and Northern Island back; but not the Falklands.

Trump Is "Fascist To The Core" & "Most Dangerous" Per His Top General

The law of the sea says those islands belong to Argentina.
But the law of the sea doesn't count when it deals to protect the hypocritical British Empire.
I understand. You still live in the past of the hypocritical British Empire.
That is... Italians dared took back the control of the Mediterranean in the forties...but they had forgotten that the Mediterranean was a British lake belonging to the British Empire.
They turned out to be mere idiots, my compatriots.

I'm a great believer in diplomacy when you think a wrong needs righting.The law of the sea says those islands belong to Argentina.

I certainly do NOT live in the past and that is why I'm happy to hand over Gibraltar and NI and most other places you can think of that we still think as Britain on sea..
However, most of our Empire is now handed back and has been for years.
The Donbas War started in 2014.
Russians tried to solve the issue diplomatically...for 8 years. War was the last resort, in 2022.
But not the Malvinas.
Or Malta...that became a republic because the Maltese rose up.
Except for some overseas territories here and there...
the Caribbeans are a Tax Haven. The empire still exists...it's just a financial and banking empire.

I think Trump is evil, no question. The anti-Christ? Probably not but close. But the one positive thing I have ever been able say about him is that he does not seem to be a warmonger like Obama, the Bushes, etc.

You talk as if I am proud of our past, I'm not.
The Dombas was more akin to the Basque area of Spain.
Malta, strange place, it is still full of Brits?
Financial empire, probably run by Soros.
With Trump's ego being as giant as it is I can't honestly say I'm surprised in my view.
He’s a warmonger much like Obama. Both promised to end a war(s), but continued the war(s) anyway. Trump did launch a war with Iran, but staff got him to back off. His extreme favoring of Russia and Israel also bespeak war mongering. So he’s worse than Trump in that regard.

Milley is not wrong. Trump does not hate the military, and he has been clear about that. He disdains soldiers who are "losers", in the sense that they allowed themselves to be wounded or captured. Otherwise, he loves military parades, especially the ones that we see in Russia, China, North Vietnam, etc. He ordered military strikes in the Middle East and even had one of Iran's top generals assassinated. He did not himself want to go to war, and his father was very much against his children joining the US military. However, Trump was an unruly teenager who had authority issues in high schools. So his father sent him to a military school to try to instill some discipline in him. After that, Trump saw himself as a soldier of sorts, since he had worn a uniform and participated in drills.

Well, to be fair then, they should have put Biden to similar scrutiny, as Biden clearly, proven, suffers from mental stability. Clearly they (Americans) didn't learn anything, choosing Biden as a president.
Better choose a younger one (wild guess = below 60, instead of above 70, I would say). At least 5 years below the age where dementia sets in (on average). Double checking google:
"Dementia is more common in people ages 65 and older . But in some cases, it can develop earlier"

Biden has been put to such scrutiny, and there is no evidence that he suffers from any mental instability beyond normal aging for a man of his age. He seems to show symptoms of Parkinson's Disease--a motion disorder--but that is between him and his doctors.
IMO, 35 is a reasonable chronological age to begin eligibility for the office, although that doesn't mean a younger person couldn't be a successful president. I would prefer an arbitrary cutoff age for our elected officials in high public office (presidency, legislators, judges), because people tend to age much more rapidly and be prone to more illnesses as they get into their late 60s. That doesn't mean that they should be denied opportunities for public service, but it would make sense to give them less critical roles.
That said, there is no evidence at all that Joe Biden suffers from dementia, which is a very serious illness with more obvious symptoms than he seems to have exhibited so far. Ronald Reagan was actually in office when he suffered from Alzheimer's, and the country still managed to survive. But he was not as dangerous a president as Donald Trump, in my opinion. H.W. Bush tended to play a much larger role in that administration than most people realize. I shudder to think of JD Vance as being the shadow president while Trump remains alive, although he would probably make a more competent president than Trump. That's not to say that he would be any less of a fascist.

He (Trump) is not the ideal, for sure, but he does seem to be a bit more war shy, compared to the last few D Presidents.

And he knows more about war than all his generals combined.
That's why they love him so much.

I'm sure he would agree that Trump is a sellout and clear and present danger to America.
Why would he respect a known draft dodger and someone who berates the military?

I would say that Donald Trump shifts erratically between a kind of extreme isolationism and reckless involvement in some of the world's most dangerous powderkegs. He did order military interventions in the Middle East that seriously destabilized the region--especially regarding Iran, which the previous administration had made considerable progress with. OTOH, he wants to turn a blind eye to Russian expansionism in Europe and Chinese expansionism in Asia, even though it seriously threatens our close allies and trade relations. I don't see him as any more war shy than previous Republican and Democratic presidents, but I do see him as ignorant of foreign policy and national security issues. Millie was not the only top general to be alarmed by his lack of intelligence when it came to foreign relations, but he was the one under pressure to drag the military into domestic politics in the same way that foreign dictators use their militaries primarily for internal control rather than security against foreign threats.

Except he had more drone strikes in four years than Obama did in eight but no one realized it because he changed the laws on publicly reporting them: Trump Inherited the Drone War but Ditched Accountability
He also increased the US nuclear arsenal and also denied reporting on that, also a reversal of transparency: After Trump Secrecy, Biden Administration Restores US Nuclear Weapons Transparency - Federation of American Scientists
Like a lot of Trump, this antiwar persona appears to be a false image meant to hide his facism.

What is your fixation on Hunter Biden's laptop? What's on it, in your opinion, that incriminates Joe Biden (Hunter is his own problem -- the father is not guilty of the son's errors)?
