Gibraltar

Shot on August 27, 2008. The video begins as we sail around the Rock of Gibraltar on the Sea Princess. After disembarking the ship I rode the cable car to the top of the rock. Once on top there were sweeping views of the area. Gibraltar is situated in a unique strategic location on the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, overlooking the Strait of Gibraltar and linked to the Spanish mainland by a narrow isthmus. On top of the rock we walked among the Barbary Apes, Macaca Sylvanus, tail-less monkeys and they are the only free-roaming monkeys in Europe. The video concludes as we sail away through the strait.

Gibraltar is clearly Britains territory.

Takeshima island is Japans territory not Korea.

Etorofu and Kunashiri islands are Japans territory not Russia.

@mamabayon you say that we should give Gib back to Spain as we stole it from them while the spanish stole Gib from the Muslims, so therefore spain have no right to claim Gibraltar

Great vid. Went there last month for a day trip. Was cloudy on the rock, so couldn't see much :( I can't wait to go back.

Gibs say.. " I did it ALL Anglo-Saxon-style...sorry IF i OFFENDED you by stealing something that is NOT mine to begin with but that's HOW we Anglos roll!" After all, we stole Gibraltar from Spain, Jamaica, most of the Carribean from the Spaniards and our homo-anglo-cousins in the USA stole Philipines, Cuba, Puerto Rico and a bevy of other Spanish possessions. IF that wasn't enough we stole the Falklands as well. And we stole Palestine & gave it to the Jews 4 fun to destabilize mideast

I hate to break it to you Anglo-Saxons but EVERYTHING you have? today you stole from somebody else just that YOU NEVER GAVE IT BACK! The time has come for? you kids to STOP living in the past? and return Gibraltar to it's rightful? owners (Spain) and GO BACK HOME TO England to eat your fish & chips and watch Manchester United games. Heck, Admiral Nelson tried to steal the Spanish Canary islands and lost his homo arm, 3 times in the 1700's? you almost stole Spanish Minorca... u LUV 2 steal :)

Mira colono de mierda, seguro que entiendes mi idioma, en el momento que llegue el gobierno fuerte que necesitamos a España, sino se nos devuelve por las buenas entraremos por las malas, y una vez dentro no vais a tener cojones para echarnos. Eso lo sabe toda España.

Los colonos no son los que tienen la ''self- determination'', esa tierra siempre fue española y volverá a serlo.

¡ ARRIBA ESPAÑA !

Listen Spiks......What don't you get...No Comprhendo......It's ours we're keeping it & you lot can't do jack shit about it..If you the you can go ahead..But before you try best you ring your Gaucho cousins down in B.A & ask what the likely consequences will be. Because if we end up shedding blood for the deluded ambitions of a facist spik, then we'll take the Costas in reparations.We got enough Brits down there to run them as well..Viva Llanitos
