O resto é agricultura de sobrevivência»". Talvez não fosse má ideia os nossos INCOMPETENTES políticos reflectirem sobre estas sábias analises de quem esteve lá a dar o "coiro ao manifesto"<BR>> <BR>> Como é que esta coisa YU8/OH2R tem qualquer suporte legal e "respeita a legalidade internacional" desde o momento que próprio governo kousovar declarou a independência....? Provavelmente a ARRL é capaz de a declarar como valida, pois até o representante americano na ONU considerou a declaração de independência lógica (a da Batata, provavelmente) e consistente( neste caso, talvez igual á da Gelatina)..!<BR>> <BR>> Por mim, vou solicitar na próxima Assembleia Municipal de Almada que declaremos a independência mal esse, estado ocupante e arrogante, faça o Aeroporto que prometeu no Deserto do Jamé....<BR>> <BR>> João Costa<BR>> CT1FBF<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> -----Original Message-----<BR>> From: cluster-bounces@radio-amador.net [mailto:cluster-bounces@radio-amador.net] On Behalf Of ct3ee@netmadeira.com<BR>> Sent: domingo, 17 de Fevereiro de 2008 7:44<BR>> To: Francisco Costa, CT1EAT; Resumo Noticioso Electr ónico ARLA; ct1fkn@gmail.com<BR>> Subject: Re: ARLA/CLUSTER: Nova Entidade DXCC - KOSOVO<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Já agora aqui vai mais uma mensagem sobre este tema.<BR>> Novamente em Inglês, mas penso que é compreensivel.
