    What a dickhead; its a commercial demining company, who have tendered a contract to remove the crap your lot put in the ground, you write like we're forcing people to do the work, these people are professionals using high tech equipment.

    It would probably be best if some of you retards took a walk through there, but then we're not like you, we respect human rights, even those held by retards.

    “you write like we're forcing people to do the work, these people are professionals using high tech equipment”

    Will that be Zimbabweans legs instead of English ones?
    If you have such a “high tech equipment”, why after thirty long years are still there?
    Of course if you remove them too fast MercoStanley will not have any material to write anymore their boring mines update every sixty days.

    No
    But they are braver than you argentines ever were, and will be,
    At least they don’t just talk, they get on with the job, of clearing up your mess,

    Proud of the mines are you,
    A killer of innocent people, and you indoctrinated fools wonder why the islands are still british, and not argentine

    Experience is important MoreCrap, when you manage to develop the brain of a 12 year old you'll figure that one out :-)

    The Zimbabweans are good, and available, and willing - seems like a reasonable combination to me.

    13 Briton,
    Argentina offered to remove all the mines in the past but the offer was rejected by the smart English people now hiring Zimbabweans thirty years later to do the job for them.

    My best guess is to keep the mines propaganda alive or you can ask your smart government official in Malvinas why they love them so much.

    @17 Fool. There are no argies doing mine clearance because the Islanders refused to have argies on their Islands.

    @20 Why would we need to have someone like Mugabe. You lot have got Kirchner, Venezuela's got Chavez. That's plenty of crap for the world to be getting on with.

    @25 Don't forget 1806 and 1807. When argieland didn't exist. Other irrelevant dates. 1810. (Forget what that's for!) 1831. First (Argentine-Germanic) pirate on the Falklands promoted by a rebel Spanish colony. 1820. Second (U.S.) pirate on the Falklands promoted by a rebel Spanish colony.

    Folks - the main reason why Argentines do not like the idea of the Zimbawean lads working here is a simple one - Race- there can be few nations that are more racist in attitude than Argentina is - and has been for many years.
    Welcome back Zims - you did a good job last year and we like and respect you.

    I hear that once the mines have been dug up, they're are going to be dropped on Argentina.
