"Who do these fuckers think they are that they can just take whatever they want from us?" is pretty much the basis of the foundation of the US! Yeah and I'm hardly a fan of US empirialism and foreign policy (pretty much every post-WWII war the US has been in should have been avoided and I'm quite vocal against the CIA replacing democractically elected leaders with puppet dictators), again I dunno how you think that's hypocrisy on my part. Are you against the way the US was founded, though? Basically land taken from others, which you are obviously against in the case of Russia/Alaska.

It was wrong and we shouldn't have done it, but the damage is done, not really much we can do now (I'm ok with giving some land back to Native Americans). Kinda how like how I'm opposed to slavery even though the US (at least early on) relied heavily on slave labor to build it's economy.

It's called reservation land.

It's called reservation land. More like psychological and spiritual concentration camps. Of course, the Native Americans will inherit their land back and repaid what is owed them in full. The dead are very patient.

What's the hypocrisey on my part? "Who do these fuckers think they are that they can just take whatever they want from us?" is pretty much the basis of the foundation of the US! Ask the British Empire.

I didn't make that comment. Somebody already said that (some snivelling little poster) on the previous page and it was resolved there.

I generally don’t agree with one country invading another unless they can give strong reasons for doing so (or it’s my country doing the invading). That much of Alaska is filled with angry MAGA gun loving Right Wingers that would make a boy from Alabama blush, this should make for an interesting invasion. Sarah Palin will see when the Russians are coming. Activist Baked Alaska can greet them. Didn't they make a satirical porno where Paylin spread her legs for Russian soldiers?

It’s always been confusing because they have their own sovereignty in many respects.

Okay, you can have Rhode Island and Providence Plantations back plus the city of Philadelphia. No one will notice Rhode Island is gone anyhow. But not Boston! We keep Boston. The Micks would riot if we gave it back.

America needs to give back Hawaii to their people.
