That's completely wrong in modern times Elroy. Did we "keep" Germany or Japan? Has any modern nation other than Israel kept the land it's armies have swept over? No. Uhmmm, we kep Hawaii, Guam, Saipan, and Puerto Rico. Was their capture part of your modern time? Hawaii didn't become a state until what, 1950? Lets see - Turkey kept Northern Cyprus, China kept Tibet, Indonesia kept East Timor until a few years ago, the Brits seem to keep holding on to the Falkland Islands, do you want more?? Spain has land in Morrocco, and Gibraltar remains strangely part of the UK.
