    Isn’t it already in Iranian AND Omani waters? You can’t just claim something someone already owns…especially a country you’re not at war with (Oman).

      He just did. It’s a violation of the UN charter, but that’s kinda his schtick.

      We just nerd other UN members to grow some balls and start issuing sanctions and embargoes on the US.

      Buddy…

      Most wars start because someone claimed someone else’s territory…

        Yeah, anyone can claim whatever they want. Making other people respect your claim is the hard part.

          Alright. Thats it. I’ve had enough of these territory disputes. I declaire all of existence to be my territory. Yep. Every single atom that exists. All mine. I own everything now.

          And for anyone who wishes to dispute this, the process is simple. Just take a number, use your toungue to write out a letter of dispute, directly onto my butthole! Anyone who doesn’t do this respects my claim to everything.

      As a matter of fact, you can! It’s a great way to start wars and annex territories. Not so good for treaty negotiations, though.
