Canada is not for sale
Greenland belongs to Greenlandics
Panama canal is Panama

BUT there is an island that literally asked to be part of the USA multiple times... Sikaiana

>The populated Stewart Islands, called Sikaiana and now effectively controlled by the Solomon Islands, are not included in official lists of U.S. Minor Outlying Islands. In 1856, the Kingdom of Hawaii Privy Council and King Kamehameha IV voted to accept their voluntary cession. The Kingdom later became the Republic of Hawaii, all of which was annexed by the United States in 1898. In 1959, the resulting federal U.S. Territory of Hawaii, excluding only Palmyra Atoll and Midway Atoll, became a U.S. state. Residents of the Stewart Islands, who are Polynesian like the native Hawaiians rather than Melanesian, claimed to be citizens of the United States since the Stewart Islands were given to King Kamehameha IV in 1856 and were part of Hawaii at the time of the United States annexation in 1898. The U.S. federal and Hawaii state governments informally accept the recent claim of the Solomon Islands over the Stewart Islands, and the United States makes no official claim of sovereignty.


So why doesn't Trump annex them now that the Solomon islands are China aligned?

>It's one dumb island!

We have an agreement with Denmark/Greenland where we can build all the military bases we want there. No need to take it. Sikaiana will expand our footprint in the Pacific and can be added directly to Hawaii (no need for more territory limbo)

why the fuck would we annex a sandbar?

>>526122064
Because it increases our footprint in the Pacific. We have tons of "sandbars" already.

Okay now I feel sick to my stomach. These people want to join us and we're abandoning them and sabre rattling with people who don't. Fuck.
