For an island that is 100% dependent upon the mainland for oil, gasoline, food and basic living needs; they sure like to throw their weight around. They have 4 days supply of gasoline
They don't have the agricultural capability to be self-sustaining. They are protected by military bases - if they succeed, which imho, they are welcome to do - either you are a part of America, or your are not.
If not, then we take what is ours; and I hope the 3-4 hours of independence you enjoy, are epic - because the new country that takes over the Islands, will not be as tolerant as the US has been.
Yep, if their ultimate wish comes through; they will be invaded by a far less friendly government almost immediately.
First, you eliminate that pesky inhabitants group; the one's who contribute nothing, and make all the demands. the houses can be distributed to your loyal followers, military commanders, and politicians.
