"The issue with Russia has nothing to do with the Guano act islands that you are referring to." - Stingray51 From the article as posted above (that you didn't read):
"Lost” islands include Nassau Island in the Pacific Ocean and Bajo Nuevo and Serranilla Bank in the Caribbean Sea. The islands became American territory under the Guano Act in the late 1800s."

Before you accuse me of not reading an article, perhaps you should read it more carefully. I stated that the dispute with Russia does not concern the Guano Act. It does not. There are other islands mentioned in the article that are Guano Act islands. The Siberian and Aleutian islands are not among them (not surprisingly given the climate).
