Can’t just sink the flag. That’s cheating. They have to send someone down in a suit or something.

Ok, let’s go with that model. US flags dropped on the sea floor of the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, Caribbean, etc.

This flag made you at least take notice.
This crap looks like a cheap mark down deal from a French flag producer's imperfection bin.

Why just drop a capsule to the bottom of the ocean... Their submarines are so good at getting to the sea floor!

Seems to me that a guy named Peary planted the first flag at the North Pole. By the standards of old-fashioned European imperialism (which seems to be what the Russkis are falling back on), we own the Arctic regions, particularly those that are closer to Alaska than to Russia. On the other hand, since our enviro-nuts will never let us drill in the Arctic anyway, someone should get some use out of the oil.

The United States discovered the North Pole.

You can’t just drop a flag on the corner. You have to walk around for a while, build a cabin, live in it for three years. Then maybe the claim will be considered, if it proves up.

I'm not sure of whether they've put a metal flag, a rubber flag or a bed sheet on the ocean floor," said State Department spokesman Tom Casey.
"I don't think that ... whether they went and spray-painted a flag of Russia on those particular ridges is going to make one iota of difference," Casey said.
"Look, this isn't the 15th century. You can't go around the world and plant flags and say, 'We're claiming this territory'," Foreign Minister Peter MacKay told broadcaster CTV.
