    Sit back and watch the toothless Argies get worked up about this “intolerable militarisation of the South Atlantic and the breaking by force of our inalienable right to the Malvinas Islands”. I'll enjoy this.

    Wouldn't surprise me if they “claimed” the moon, either.
    They weren't there first, but that doesn't seem to matter in their twisted logic.

    What Argentina sees, Argentina expects and wants.

    They remind me of a little baby. They see something and decide they want it. Then they find that actually it belongs to someone else. So they steal it and when it is taken away, they cry and whine and beg and plead because they want it so much. But give in to any small degree and they will want more. The best thing is to be firm and tell them “no” from the beginning.
