They don't have to submit to the government that happens to have the jurisdiction of unowned land.

LOL. Really? If it is within their territory are you suggesting that any unclaimed land can be raped of its resources without permission?

There's alot of unclaimed land in Alaska too. Let's you and I go drill for oil there and see how long it lasts.

Absolutely, anyone interested in drilling for oil in Alaska's wilderness should be free to do so. You used another tendentious word, "rape" as you spoke of "raping the earth's resources". If there is a concrete harm done by resource extraction, then that harm becomes the reason that makes such extraction unrightful. The absence of a government permit never becomes such reason under the natural law.
