As for the S. Africa bit...well, got to call you a liberal again...you just keep pulling their tricks. Thought you learned the last time with the AIDS bit, guess not. Never did I say that I was pro segregation, the areas you colonize, you bring into your Empire as equal parts of your Empire, that is how you keep your lands, yours. You Brits never figured that out, the French did, with Algeria, but they unfortunetly have this bad habit of giving up and didn't have the will to fight. So, try again not to put words into peoples mouths...it'll only make you look silly. Oh, and for the record....S. Africa has really come a long way and so has the rest of the African contenant since colonialism collapsed: why they are #1 in AIDS, STDS, Turbucloses and other disease (yes India still is #1 in the Black Plague, but we'll see). #1 in famine, dictatorships (closely fought over by the Arabs), war, brutality, lack of education and civility and destruction of infrastructure... they are also #1 in hand outs....something for the whole continent to be proud of.
You've said it, the Argentinian government always do this when they need to make a patriotic stand to get public support. It doesn't mean that they will invade the Falklands again. Personally, I would put an ICBM silo on the Falklands and tell them that if they try to invade, Buenos Aires will be nuked.

I am not a bloody liberal. Anyone can see that in the vast majority of cases colonialism throughout history has been synonomous with subjugation. You may wish to distance yourself from the latter and claim that you can have compassionate colonialism. But that is a nonsense, since in order to utilise someone else's country you have to control it, which inevitably brings you into conflict with members of its population who don't wish to be controlled.

You argument regarding AIDS and homosexuality was bogus. The fact that you repeat such tripe shows you are a hypocrite, since you condemn gun-control advocates for their equally stupid arguments.

That's impossible. People can always remember the time before they were part of your Empire and what was good about that time etc. Hence there will always be a group who do not wish to be part of your Empire, for whatever reason, and who take up some form of resistance, eventually leading to a conflict.

Life for the native South Africans was always like that, they had the worst of everything. Ever heard of Soweto? Tuberculosis was rampant there, as was starvation. Of course that didn't worry the South African government because they wanted to reduce the native population in that country. Their Bioweapons program was even trying to develop an agent to render a person sterile, the intention was to sterilise the natives and thus ethnically cleanse them. The South African government didn't have the guts to set up Gulags like your country did.
