> less of a legal claim > we literally built it it's an american project. we let panama have it because they were useful puppets. they are no longer a useful puppet. we take it back. end of story. at the end of the day, no one gives a single solitary fuck about what's "legal". you only have what you can keep by force. panama can't defend it by force, america can take it by force, so it's ours, and anything apart from that reality is a polite fiction - nice to say, but ultimately a facade.
