etrange: Oga scroll back and check your previous mentions do I look like the one who told you Alaska was between US and Russia. I was just telling that guy to leave you to your ignorance as regards the Hong Kong and China issue. It's like you know nothing about the opium wars how Britain forcefully took Hong Kong from China. You keep talking about making Hong Kong independent why should China allow that. All these won't be happening if Britain didn't make forays into Chinese territory. Hong Kong will continue to be part of China Britain can bark till eternity. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Judybash93: The one country two systems doesn't even make sense. I don't know why China had to agree to it in the first place. Well I would accept they were weak then but they have to act fast before those Hong Kongers start pushing for complete independence from China cause that's what the colonial thief called Britain wants. 3 Likes 1 Share |

dermmy: You quoted his dumb post to call me ignorant and here you are quick to abandon him. If not for the colonization, a lot of things would have been different. There wouldn't have been a single nation called Nigeria, Nigeria wouldn't have been English speaking or Christian's, etc. How many of these things went back to the way they were 100 years later after colonization? None. Each territory and colony big enough evolved into independence because the people have, over the years, instituted a system for themselves. So why must HK go back to it's former status if the people of HK does not concent to it? It's not all about China vs the UK. The people being fought over should have a say. They could vote to stay, fine but nothing will settle all this dispute faster than that. Your argument simply doesn't make sense. You can type all you want but there's no justification for denying the people of HK a referendum. Nothing at all. 4 Likes 1 Share |

etrange: See how you messed up. Using Nigeria's colonial past/setting to analyse China and Hong Kong issue. You said it's not always about China and UK then why is UK a former colonial master giving herself headache over what is not rightfully theirs? So because things didn't go back to the way they were before Britain administered Nigeria as protectorates and later amalgamate it China should now allow Hong Kong to slip away? You points are useless and baseless no one should take you serious. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

dermmy: Is it about weak or strong or the rights of the people of Hong Kong? It's just like the Bakassi issue? The issue was not about Cameroon or Nigeria. The people should have been given the option of self determination. They had a right to choose where they wanted to be. This option was even initially on the table. For Hong Kong, the primary problem is Xi Jinpings autocratic and belligerent style. He is the epicenter. If someone else was premier, I'm sure this problem won't exist. China had a 1 China 2 systems policy 8n Hong Kong which worked very well. Xi is an autocrst through and through. He has been going all over Southeast and Far east Asia throwing China's weight around and threatening the neighbours. He's been seizing disputed islands from neighbours, islands no more than uninhabited rocks. 5 Likes |

grandstar: UK should have thought about the rights and sovereignty of China and Hong Kong before they forcefully took away Hong Kong from China. Oh yeah it's about being strong or weak. China was weak then and China even displayed more weakness by allowing the autonomous status for Hong Kong. Go and read about power in international politics it is that power that Britain used against China when it took HK from her in 1843. China now has power to take back what belongs to her. Autonomous status be damned, international law be damned, when you have power no bloody imperialist can dictate to you how you should manage your affair. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

dermmy: Stop being petty. This the 21st century. Hong Kong was an extremely prosperous place when handed over and not a Banana republuc. Nowadays, most colonial territories under rich western nations tend to be prosperous or relatively prosperous compared to what was the norm 60 years ago. Centuries ago, the standard was conquest in the West Now, it is devolvement, the Rule of Law and human rights. And the issue here remains the rights of the interest of the people of the territory which you feel is a non issue. They should go die because Britain colonized then almost 180 years ago. I find this bizarre. 4 Likes |

grandstar: Stop being ignorant. The international rule of law is only meant for weak African countries. Even these western powers violates the international law unilaterally. Look at the war crimes American troops committed in Iraq and Afghanistan now America is using her power to stop ICC from probing her by placing sanctions on the judge handling the case and you call that rule of law? The west you are praising have sponsored terror and unseated democratic regimes around the world and you call that rule of law? US continue to help Israel annex Palestine lands and Syria's golan which is against international law and you are talking of rule of law. Honestly I understand your sentiment but when a power is about to use its power to turn the table against you you have to challenge that power if you are able that was what happened when Russia annexed Crimea. Russia wouldn't have done that if the west didn't intervene in Ukraine affair. It is power politics bro you are still learning. I just pity African countries in this 21st century they are so weak and unable to challenge these powers who are still scrambling for Africa. 4 Likes 1 Share |

engrchykae:China can never try that, never! Did you see the riots in Hong Kong, they even destroyed government property, the HK Leader Carrie was begging, and she almost resigned because of the crisis. Hong Kong people hate Mainland China and the Chinese government with passion. If China tries to use military force, UK and USA will step in 100%. And China will lose Hong Kong to the UK, like Ukraine lost Crimea to Russia. Compare that to when thousands of University students held a peaceful protest in Mainland China at Tiananmen square some decades ago. The Chinese government massacred thousands of students and democracy activists that didn't even do any violent protests. Did you see the protests in Hong Kong? 100% violent, the crowd was wild with weapons destroying anything in their way, and attacking police. China just have to behave, because if they don't and many Hong Kong people die, then they have played themselves into the hands of the West for a re-takeover. Those ones are just waiting for the opportunity now. Hong Kong can never be in China's grip. It will always be a rogue territory aligned to the West. Hong Kong people love their freedom. 4 Likes 1 Share |

grandstar: Well, sovereignty may be defined as the power of the State to make law and enforce the law with all the coercive power it cares to employ. It is the characteristic of the State in virtue of which it cannot be legally bound except by its own will or limited by any other power. The way China administer its own territory shouldn't be a headache for the west. The west has always propped up dictatorial regimes around the world for their own selfish interest so they should stop acting like a saint and respect China as a sovereign nation. 4 Likes 1 Share |

RTSC: the U.S never ratified her signatory to the I.C.C ...in otherwords they're not a state party to the treaty that created the I.C.C i.e the ROME STATUTE. One of the most important guiding principle of International Law is that a treaty does not create either obligations or rights for THIRD STATES without their consent. meaning of THIRD STATES? = simply means a State other than a Member State or a State not party to an agreement/a treaty. |

leesamyoung:Mr man Georgia has no strong relations with the West, or value as per their main interests. You can never compare Georgia with Hong Kong. Do you know how many Western citizens live in Hong Kong, and huge economic and political investment the West has there? Shebi na China b your Jackie Chan. Let them go and kill Hong Kong residents and let's see if the Western military won't cut China down to shreds. Una too dey overhype China, till date they are not even a developed country, still categorized as developing. Till date hundreds of millions of Chinese are poor. China cannot afford a war with the West, they will only talk tough with one side of their mouth, then go behind and seek diplomatic solutions. They are not fools 6 Likes |

You don't know the history of China just admit this. colonialism is a thing of the past yet Britain is still flexing muscle? Please tell that to Britain.
