When the US invaded Mexico and annexed its territory, didn’t the Americans change the name of the conquered areas? Do you mean that the US had no right to call Arizona, by that name since it really was part of Mexico before the US invasion and annexation?
Yeah, I’m going to disagree on you because the debates are a sophomoric repeating of talking points while their audience treats the show as watching a football team. If they went away, we would lose nothing in the national debate that we couldn’t already get from the coverage from Britt Hume’s or Rachel Maddow’s news programs.
I already called them out by addressing this point.
The modern history of the islands started out as French.
For people to call it Arizona Mexico at this point would be a little bit provocative, to say the least.
That in a nutshell defines the motivation for the Falklands war. The government performs poorly, and then rather than address the issues of how they are ruining the economy and the country, they instead get the people all fired up by creating a false issue over a track of land that has no relevance to anything.
Thank goodness that doesn’t happen in the United States.
My point isn’t that these shows aren’t boring and stupid (they are–I quit watching them way before Colmes left Hannity–I didn’t even realize that had happened for years), but that the conversations they spark have more value than the conversations that the Kardashians spark. That’s my only point. I’m just disagreeing with your notion that O’Reilly and others have as little value as the Kardashians.
Rachel Maddow is news now?
Sounds like the land you speak of belongs to Spain going with this kind of line of thought. Of course, that doesn’t benefit your argument.
How about the Pope?? Does that give you a clue as to motivation as well? I assume he could easily say the same and no, that he is a native speaker of Spanish is not going to change the matter.
So, would you continue to call Nunavut the Northwest Territories, if you knew that it would be insulting to the people of Nunavut, who take pride in their political accomplishment?
Am I right to understand your post as a sarcastic jab against the United States?
If Nunavut is in use, that is what the people call it.
The UN calls Israel an apartheid state as well.
No, you don’t have the story correct at all. You might research it. That is not why “some” would be saying he is lying.
But again, it is semantics as to how they are called.
