    Sure what I said sounds like that, if you ignore the first half of the comment you are replying to.

      Here’s the first and only sentence before the sentence I replied to …

      The principle of self determination is in the UN charter that you keep erroneously saying suggests the UK should hand over the islands because of.

      That has nothing to do with the questions I asked …

      The other side of the coin of self determination is having the force to ensure that. Britain holds the ground

      Russian holds the ground in parts of Ukraine, does that mean Russia should keep said land?

      Does the Israeli settlements in the occupied lands make the land Israeli land?

      I was asking specifically about your statement about “Britain holds the ground”.

      My point is just holding the ground is not enough to legally/ethically claim the land, especially if you’ve kicked out the people on said land that used to be there.
