First, I strenuously object to including Israel in that list. Israel has far more say on US policy to be included in a list that includes Spain, Canada and the UK.

And I find it highly unlikely that the US would want Spain, Canada or the UK to be upgraded from the Autonomous Commonwealth status they share with Puerto Rico.


I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
