I think it's gas actually but anyway ..... if we were to be so magnanimous as to let them become our northern most province we could use Timor as a staging post for our invasion of Indonesia and they wouldn't even see it coming.

Vote yes for Timorese integration. :twisted:

I prefer to talk about the downsides and why it is never going to happen. We run out of stuff to discuss when JM insists people stick to discussing how good his idea is.
