you keep proving my point. It's NOT poker. That's a gross misunderstanding of international relationship WITH ALLIES. I am even more embarrassed that you keep digging this hole. Countries are not for sale, to be annexed by their bigger, dumber neighbors. I could go on and on but I would have to start with the basics, middle school world history? Look at the history of Yugoslavia, the Soviet Union, Israel. Endless bloody genocides, starvation and wars when the country with the bigger army thinks it's a poker game. There is no such card as independence and freedom of a people, when it's used as a card, it's always a giant disaster.
