Smart meters have been a thing for over a decade now

(Good) Terminal guidance really puts a limit on the speed though, which kind of negates the main advantage of using a ballistic missile (speed).

Even a good ballistic missile will be open for interception longer than say a low observability sea skimmer like LARASM.

They do not? All words are invented and meanings morph over time.

Bullshit.

If you infer something from something that’s on you.

Indeed, why would you?

If you want people to be happy to be serving you then demand that they are paid more.

Otherwise buy your sandwich without any delusions of grandeur and fuck off.

Ah you’re right, why wouldn’t they be friendly to the armed nutters who stormed into their home, killed their neighbours and family members, and held them hostage for almost two months?

The latter.

So were they hostages when they were imprisoned with no intention of using them as bargaining chips, or did they become hostages when Hamas asked for their release as part of the exchange?

The missile knows where it is by knowing where it is not.

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.

And since this didn’t happen on the Falklands, your point is completely asinine.

Self determination requires two things - the whole determination part, in case of the falklands the referendum held and overseen by international observers; and the means to uphold that self determination against those who would ignore it (in this case, argentina).

So you do struggle with reading english then yeah? Or is it the concept of self determination that confuses you?

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

If nothing else, you can see that I’ve been arguing from a position of some knowledge on the matter, bring up coherent facts to bolster my opinions.

Hahahahaha

Cool, so since Britain has held the islands longer than Argentina has existed you consider the matter settled?

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.

The other side of the coin of self determination is having the force to ensure that. Britain holds the ground, the people there want this to continue, and Argentina lacks the capability to force this to change.

I am not being deliberately obtuse but its hard when its clear you have no clue what you are talking about. This thread is full of people telling you this but you just keep repeating the same nonsense.

Cool, so Britain has held the islands longer than Argentina, and the argentinian claim on the falklands is as strong as their claim on Madrid.

Even if your bullshit wasn’t bullshit, theres another huge difference you are ignoring - the US is capable of doing something about it, Argentina is not.

Argentina has esentially no navy to speak of, and what it can field would be conpletely smashed by the typhoons stationed on the islands.
