fucked up? i wouldn't say fucked up, awkward maybe; then again, that whole area of dispute has been awkward.

few years? try a few months.

and to add to jico's discussion, remember that many french and some british colonies got bilateral...well, diplomatic independences; doesn't mean they weren't conflicted, though.

yes, yes i know that.
i didnt said that.

politically, achieving independences is one of the toughest things in life.

and in long term i doubt they will benefit from this.

doesn't mean they can, but it's tough. it takes a long time to reap benefit and goodwill for the residents.

it doesn't look good though, at least not for the next couple of years.

when the bomb drops it'll be a bank holiday everybody happy in their tents and caravans everybody happy in their ignorance and apathy no realizes till the television breaks down, down down
