<<Okay, here it is, simply. Freeze territories where they are. It's usually too impractical to "go back" to some previous position.>>

In other words, to put it into the jargon of international law, you, Cosmo, support 100% the principle of territorial integrity, and would give the old heave-ho to the principle of self-determination.

Of course, the "haves" prefer to freeze the status quo. The "have-nots" prefer to challenge it. My only comment is that freezing history in its tracks is even more impractical than "going back." It literally cannot be done. At least, it never has been done, even though God knows how many statesmen have tried!
