    Geeeeeeeeeeee...

    She surely is a good-looking Engrish Foreign Colonial Office officer...
    And she comes deeply embedded with an Olmsted Foundation Yankee Colonel...
    Can't wait seeing her wearing that famous Malvinas ostrich feathers headpiece...

    Geeeeeeeeeeee...

    Gauchito Drink surely is an angry looking National Socialist drunk....
    And with so many self professed failed marriages and children with a broken home...
    Can't wait to see him tell us how great Argentina is doing after it gets its very own nuclear blast in the upcoming general exchange...

    “Population, pretending to be anything other than sovereign or self determining, because simply put; they're not !”

    Your opinion or the evidence ?
    “UN Charter; DECLARATION REGARDING NON-SELF-GOVERNING TERRITORIES; Article 73; Members of the United Nations which have or assume responsibilities for ..peoples have not yet attained .. self-government recognize the principle ..b. to develop self-government, ...” October 16th,1975 The ICJ presents its advisory opinion on two questions concerning Western Sahara; “The validity of the principle of self-determination, defined as the need to pay regard to the freely expressed will of peoples, ...” The Court also states; “The Charter of the United Nations, in Article 1, paragraph 2, indicates, as one of the purposes of the United Nations: “To develop friendly relations among nations based on ...the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples . .” This purpose is further developed in Articles 55 and 56 of the Charter. ...the subsequent development of international law in regard to non-self-governing territories, as enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, made the principle of self-determination applicable to all of them”
    Judge Dillard, .. adds; “ .. it is for the people to determine the destiny of the territory and not the territory the destiny of the people.”
