    Now let us educate the world who this “Andrew Rosindell”, whose elocutions about “self-determination” seem so sincere, really is.

    He is virulently anti gay-rights, and wishes to deny any rights to this group. So much for “self-determination”.

    Also notice how he said “the Falklands will remain British forever”... does that sound like “self-determination”?

    Oh, and to put the cherry on the pie:

    The hypocricy of these angl0-saxons and most Europeans knows no bounds. Most of their countries live in the stone age when it comes to rights for all groups, and yet the politicians engage in all kinds of saturnalia and carousing.

    No wonder the elites (the bankers and politicians) call them “plebs” and “muppets”. They are 2nd class citizens, and saying they are citizens is a stretch.

    Funny how these Brits harp about things CFK did three/four years ago vs today, but start crying when the same standard is applied to them.

    Hypocrisy again.

    The words hypocrisy is a collocate of “British”, I can't ever separate them.

    @1 Cowardly little faggot distributing argie propaganda.
    @2 How restrained of you.
    @3 Ah-hah. Another faggot. What is “gay”? Do you mean queer or homosexual? Let's look around this planet of ours. Can we have a list of the species that take part in same-gender sexual activity? “Gay” is just a word to disguise aberrant behaviour. “Homosexual” is true. “Queer” is accurate. Is this why argie “soldiers” turn their backs or go belly-down on the ground? Offering a bum-job?
    @4 Unlike you, we don't get “excited” by pushing people out of aircraft.
    @5 Rights for faggots? You must be joking. Next you'll want everyone to join in. But I have a special “tool” for your arse. A bayonet. You will be truly “open” to all comers.
    @8 I don't get it. Is that all you could type whilst bent over?
    @9 “hypocrisy” is only one word, you uneducated faggot. On the other hand, corrupt, cowardly, creepy, criminal, degenerate, genocidal, incontinent, larcenous, mendacious, necrophiliac, puerile, putrid, rancid, racist, scurrilous, scrofulous, useless, xenophobic and many others are all words that can be replaced by “argie”.

    Unfortunately, Nostrolldamus, your are not the President.

    Your mixed up President has no idea of what she really wants, on one hand she criticizes the EU for its protectionist policies and the in the next breath suggests that Argentina would like to be part of the EU.

    She is happy to go to the international courts such as the WTO to complain about actions against Argentina, but will not accept any WTO submissions that are against Argentina.

    She will complain that the judiciary outside of Argentina is all corrupt and anti Argentina.

    She will tell the world that INDEC's figures are a true statement of the economic performance of Argentina and how dare anyone dispute her figures/ forecasts.

    Most of us came to Mercopress because of CFK/Argentina's actions against the Falkland Islands.

    You keep telling us that you only post the rubbish that you do because of the hatred the British posters have of the Argentinian people.

    Well for somebody who claims to be such an educated person with such an understanding of world affairs, it is a pathetic excuse for writing such rubbish.

    Really,
    How childishly uneducated some Argies are today,

    As long as they are protected by the British, they might as well be protected by the lord almighty,

    As Argentina has more chance of seeing the back of the unsightly CFK than they ever have of argentina becoming civilised, let alone getting these islands,

    I ask you good people (excluding Argentines) to take a look at this interview where Madame Casto is made to look a fool she also resembles a man in drag.

    It is hard to see just what mr Cameron is up to,
    Is he deliberately doing nothing, in the hope the CFK will attack the islands or provoke an incident so he can justifiably send in the navy?

    Or is he hoping that she will just run out of puff and justifying his cutbacks to the tune that we have no enemies,
    Either way mr Cameron’s government has been warned and all the danger signs are there for all to see,

    We all know on here, that he could send either the new type 45, a submarine or two frigates, and state that all shipping including cruise liners are libel to be delayed and searched, just the fact that he ups the anti, would deter cruise liners from the south Atlantic,

    We have said it time and again, its not what he says, its how they interpret it,
    And if they think we are weak, then they will keep pushing, until the inevitable happens and violence is started, that make mr Cameron as guilty, does it not,

    Fxck em all, send the navy with instructions to defend any ship interfered with by the Argies, run em off, or sink em,
    But don’t just sit on ya bum David, do something…..

    just my opinion.

    It really does amaze me; TTT and crew you are on here pointing out contradictions in British politicians for quarter debating points, and meanwhile behind you in the ring is the full CFK cabinet in head to toe clown costumes, complete with big shoes, water buckets and a car with a big horn and doors that fall off.

    They are dragging your country into a complete mire politically, economically and socially. They lie to the world (“no dollar clamp”, “i talk to the press all the time”), show themselves to be completely ridiculous (“militarising the south atlantic”, “court cases everyday against the oil companies”, the entire C24 pantomime), and demonstrate intellectual prowess of amoebas. I mean seriously, despite the thousands of economists and politicians who have tried to come up a successful economic model, only CFK and her counter model have the answer. Really, a “successful lawyer” who's razor sharp legal mind can't even work out that telling a judge that she won't abide by his ruling before the ruling, that it might, just might negatively impact her case, can better centuries of economic practice and learning?

    Surely with all this ineptitude going on at the highest level you have more important things to worry about in terms of what is going to happen next to your country? Lets face it, even if the world lost its collective mind tomorrow and the falkland islanders decided to go with argentina, how would that have the slightest bearing on stopping the downward spiral that your government is taking you down?

    @33 good point I know what i'd do, next time a rg coastguard ship harrassess anybody get the sub to surface right next to it and say hello, and at the same time announce in parliment to the WHOLE world that due to continuing rg pressure we will deploy another warship to the South Atlantic who will be on constant patrol around the islands (not in the Carribean or West / South Africa as they do now) but purely there to stop any further intimidation from rgenweener against ships legally fishing and with licences granted by the FALKAND ISLANDS (there are no malvinas), also another two typhoons to the islands whom carry out air to air refuelling right above said rg coastguard tug. When they start whinging about militarizing the south atlantic tell the whole world why we have done this with the FACTS, and we will not back down to harassment from the arseholes (obviously you couldn't say that in parliment but you know what i mean). Then hold a major military exercise on the islands with live missile firings just in case they dont get the message................... Then watch CFK and her bunch of brown shirts arse cheeks start flapping. Fuck it get the sub to carry out a Tomahawk firing just to be sure, you can never get enough practice after all

    That article is very interesting, some real interesting stuff like this;

    'What Escudé calls “the indoctrination about territorial nationalism” is a process that consolidated around 1945, more than a century after the islands were taken over by the British.

    “Geography textbooks printed before the 1940s attributed to Argentina a territory of 2.800.000 km2, while later textbooks attributed it lands for approximately 4.000.000 km2,” he wrote in his essay.'

    So essentially after 1945 Argentina quite randomly started claiming considerably more territory like the Falkland Island's but prior to that did not.

    @43 very interesting PA just backs up what we already know, Argentine kids are brainwashed at an early age and know nothing of the true history only what the goverment want them to hear, spoken by an Argentine thank you. Interesting the posters all over the place stating las malvinas pish, I think we should start that over here “FALKLANDS self determination” to get more people in the know about what is happening down there and then see the reaction. Bet Argentina wouldn't like it, and nor would our goverment but I bet it would stir a response, probably one Argentina wouldn't like at all, we have kept a quiet stance on this so far but I fear the more this goes global via media websites etc the more responses Argentina will get and the more people they will piss off, unfortunatly they are not in a position to do anything about it and make themselves look more foolish than they are at the moment. Most of the world doesn't know or are interested in Argentina at the moment but the more limelight they bring on themselves at this time with regard to debt repayments, the IMF, continual whinging to UN etc etc the the more people turn a blind eye or ignore them as the poor spoilt brat that doesn't get it own way, sorry but thats the truth. They can slag the UN / UK/ US/ WORLD off all they like it will not alter the fact that at the moment they are on the brink of being a failed state and out of control, not only towards the FALKLAND ISLANDS but to everyone they owe money to and are refusing to pay, playing the “we will not be told what to do” will not work “we will look after ourselves” will not work either, I feel for the average Argentine as TMBOA drags the country down and the Malvinists ready their suitcases and bags full of $US and prepare for the off

    @PA

    Interesting article. How 'independent' is the Argentine Independent??

    Strange that this statement has such prominence:
    “On the other side of the Atlantic, Schweimler states that for the British, the Falklands are still a distant worry.
    “There is this often repeated story about the 1982 invasion. When it started, most of the Brits thought the invasion was off the coast of Scotland, so of course they said that ‘we should fight back’. When they realised where the Falklands were, it simply stopped being an issue. Most British people had no idea where the islands where, and now 30 years later most of the young people wouldn’t probably know where they are,” said Schweimler.”

    Schweimler is after all, South American, isn't he?

    My recolllection is there was, throughout the Commonwealth, an overwhelming support for the FI and UK efforts to regain the islands for the inhabitants, and it never wavered.
    The Argentinians were happy to 'give the finger' to the British and celebrated loudly in the streets.

    Mercopenguin: it's an “alleged” right to self-determination. They should have their “right” examined by the ICJ and put an end to this, once and for all.

    (But of course that's not going to happen: the more generations they they've been there, they more they can ask to leave British crimes in the past)

    andy65 (post 68) covered one half of my comment on your ridiculous post nicely. As for the other half: you are always claiming that us Brits and Europeans etc never post anything factual. YOu can back up that Argentines HATE Europeans can you? Do you mean all Argentines, the majority of Argentines, a significant minority of Argentines or just you and your crazy mates? Which is it and where is your evidence?

    The right to self-determination isn't alleged. It's recognised by the UN as a universal human right. Argentine attempts to limit that right have been rejected. See the “Mercosur summit” thread for details.

    Otherwise, the normal course of events would be for the complainant to appeal to the court. That would be Argentina. Even Thatcher said back in the 80s if Argentina went to the ICJ, the UK would respond.

    What's stopping you?

    This is a passage written by a carribean diplomat

    Argentina is a neighbouring country, and, as good neighbours, the Caribbean should urge it to take its case to the International Court of Justice if it believes it has a genuine argument for sovereignty over the Falklands, and, therefore the right to any oil that is found in the territorial waters of the islands. It’s what the Caribbean would have to do in similar circumstances

    The same person also acknowledges that The United kindom as shown willingness to do this where Argentina refuses to-I WONDER WHY.

    The same diplomat also points out the following

    There are many good reasons why Commonwealth Caribbean countries should not support Argentina in this dispute with Britain. First, the inhabitants of the Falklands have determined that they are British and wish to remain so. They have rejected the notion of being Argentinian. The right of self-determination, enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, is one that Commonwealth Caribbean countries have long upheld, and, indeed, is the basis on which each of them achieved their own political independence.

    “Most of their countries [Europe] live in the stone age when it comes to rights for all groups”

    So tell me again why the Falkland Islanders do not have human rights? Something to do with land, right? Something to do with Argentina pride, right? Something to do with the islanders not wanting the same thing as you, right? Idiot. Hypocrite. Laughable.

    “it's an “alleged” right to self-determination.”

    Incorrect.

    Every UN resolution asking the UK and Argentina to talk to resolve diferences over the Falkland Islands is conditional on the provisions of the UN Charter, because it says so.

    It does not say only 1, 2 ,3 0r any other specific parts of the UN charter apply to the Falkland Islands , so therefore it refers to the whole of the UN charter, of which one part only is used by Argentina (National integrity), itself is a flawed argument as Argentina (formed in 1853) has never owned the Falkland Islands, except the time its' pirates squatted in the Islands from April to June 1982, when on the request of the rightful owners the Falklnd Islanders they were evicted.

    @64 Really? Demographically, 86.4% EUROPEAN. Also 90% HOMOSEXUAL FAGGOTS. Argies without triple entry points shouldn't be allowed to survive. No point to them. Can you do a triple? Or four?
    @67 Your “grave” has already been “dug”. Down to the sewage works and accept your fate.
