    Like the Palestinian lands stolen by Europe's Zionist Jews - even after all the 1948 refugees have died . RIGHT ? :handshake:

    I've already said that passports provide a reference point. Your nationality defines who you are and it underpins your self determination rights. My contention that you cannot simultaneously claim that you are British AND that you have a right of self determination 8,000 miles away from Britain, stands. These two things are self-evidently mutually contradictory. Thats just logical reasoning, now deal with it.

    I mention passports because its the best reference point in defining who we are. My right to self-determination as a Brit is defined by my nation state status applicable to Britain. Logic isn't your thing, clearly.

    Why cant you?

    What does it matter if youre 8000 miles away? Telephones are all the rage these days. And they can vote along with the mainlanders just as easily.

    Further theyre not part of the argentine mainland either. So where does that leave you?

    Explain the problem to us please.

    Our Zulu friend seem to have an obsession with "PASSPORTS " and " HERRINGS " - he repeats it in almost every second post.

    Most curious . (* scratch head)

    What arrogance - sheeesh .

    No one is stopping you from maintaining your "contention" , for whatever its worth , -- and no one has to ," deal with " what to your little mind sounds "logical"

    We are all entitled to our own opinions and really dont need someone like you to tell anyone what to "deal with"


    tatty-byeeee.

    Those aren't really comparable, the Falkland Islanders didn't take the land from a pre-existing native populace.
