Hague answered early today!

      <description><![CDATA[@ Marcos Alejandro #1

So... Timerman refuses to sit down with Hague and representatives of the Falkland Islands in Britain, but is perfectly happy to meet Hague and FI representatives in Argentina for the exact same talks?!?!

Yeah, that's the sort of logic I've come to expect from you Argentinians.

On another note, these 18 Europeans who support a peaceful solution to the Falklands issue, does that mean they will be equally critical of Argentina's recent actions against the Islanders, or are they specially handpicked by Argentina to help chant 'Las Falklands son Argentinas' while Timerman is in Britain?]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Well this major story isn't on the UK news this morning. 
I'm still trying to work out what the diplomatic objective of this visit is. Trying to irritate your hosts is an unusual and some might say risky strategy. I can understand that trying to wind your hosts up in the hope of eliciting an overreaction might play well at home but how does that help anywhere else? And what if your hosts stay calm and polite, then you just look a tool.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Mr Timerman indicates that he didn't receive sufficient notice from the FO, but wouldn't have accepted it in any case.
I don't know what his agenda is in London, but the others involved will take notice that what Mr Timerman has to say/negotiate should be taken with caution: no one who refuses to talk with all the parties involved in serious matters of international importance has any credibility in any governmental areas.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA["The Argentine minister recalled that the UN in 1975 said the Malvinas question “is a bilateral issue that must be resolved by the sovereign governments of Argentina and the UK”."

Well, it was resolved in 1982 when Argentina started the War of Aggression and lost. Settled under international law, using the weapon of Argentina's choice.

All settled then.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Essentially his trip is over before it has started, he's only coming to try to regain some credibility in assembling some folk who have an anti-British stance to meet and make another pointless statement that will be forgotten in less than 5 minutes. 

He's already shown his hand in that Argentina and himself are trying to deny the human rights of the Falkland's people. So they have defeated themselves before they've  even started.

All this nonsense about dialogue and give peace a chance is nothing more than a bunch of lies.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA['‘it is quite strange that the UK should impose conditions on dialogue: who should sit at the table, who has to talk, who doesn’t have to talk. I never came across something like this. "

I never came across something like this, except when I tried exactly that myself. And then got all huffy and snotty when I didn't get away with it.

And not only that, but yet again they  bring Marcelo Luis Vernet, the man who publicly blew the gaff on their claims prior to 1829, and still apparently nobody has noticed. 

With self-discrediting ineptitude of this magnitude on display, one hopes that the Anglo-Argentine committee rises to the occasion.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Whilst the Argentine media is following the story of this visit very closely , it  is worth noting that there is no mention of it today on any UK news channel or in the printed press .
It is certainly not mentioned on any european news channels .
In short CFK and your looney government , no one but yourselves are interested in talks , dialogue , UN resolutions , papal ( or other ) bull , continental shelves or which the birds fly .
The Falklands are British and will remain so , a fact you are secretly quite pleased about , as the British " militarization " of the S Atlantic means not only have you got a visible " enemy "  , but also your fishery protection and ASR / icebreaking cover are provide for free by the " enemy " RAF /RN allowing you to let your ships roll over and sink at their moorings , while you either waste the defence budget on " Football for All" or trouser it yourselves  and squirell into foreign bank accounts , which after all , is the real reason for Tinpot's visit.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Dear Brethen, thanks for attending our Malvinas week events here in London,. Firstly, the democratic government of argentina makes the following promises: We promise to ignore the falkland islanders rights and interests - as demonstrated by ignoring them.
We promise not to uphold the UN Charter on human rights - as demonstrated by our public statements.
We promise to make the islanders suffer economically - as demonstrated by our falklands vessel embargo.
We promise to re-write falklands history - as demonstrated by our ignorance of our own history which we teach at our schools.
We promise to colonise the falklands - as we did on the south american continent (though we are not really colonisers - this term does not apply to us by the use of special argentine magic dust).
If you are in favour of the Argentine  approach please  raise your hand for a quick vote! 1 vote, thanks Alicia!]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Calling the islanders "trespassing colonists"?

Saying "William Hague is trying to deceive world, but we have his number" ?

Saying he is going to "debunk lies told by British Government"

Saying that the UK is "militarising the South Atlantic" when everyone knows that Argentina is itching to invade the Falkland Islands once again and bully the inhabitants like they did last time. 

Cosying up to Iran!

... and this guy is supposed to be a diplomat?

Ludicrous! What a plonker!

He will never achieve his aims because he has no idea of how to make the progress Argentines want. If he is expecting the UK or the Falkland Islanders to acede he is going about it in a clumsy and belligerent fashion.  The 1982 war was a result of Argentine beligerance. It didn't succeed then and it wont succeed now.
Argentina is in an economic mess and by aligning itself with Dictators and the axis of evil it is fast turning itself into a pariah nation that will be ejected from international organizations with attendant loss of influence and the impoverishment of its already impoverished people.

Instead of organizing a Eurotwats conference and making himself and his country an even bigger laughing stock ( impounded flagship and naval ships sinking in harbour due to incompetence )Mr Timerman should turn straight around at Heathrow and scuttle off back where he came from. Of course he is welcome to enjoy being in the worlds greatest city for a few days as long as he pays cash.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[@34 Anbar

Marcelo Luis Vernet is a descendant (great or maybe great-great grandson I think) of Falklands Luis Vernet. He is a writer to trade, and part of the Argentine entourage that turns up at the C24.

At the June 2012 meeting of the C24, as part of a delegation of some 90 assorted governors, mayors, trade unionists, and what not, led by CFK and Timerman, Marcelo took an onion from his pocket and gave a highly emotional reading from the diary of his (great-)great-grandmother Mrs Luis Vernet, intended to demonstrate the bucolic existence of the Vernet settlement before the dastaradly Brit pirate usurpers turned up.

One of the passages was this :

'Sunday, 30 August 1829 was a feast day for the village. Maria writes in her diary “Very good Saint Rose of Lima day, so Vernet has decided to take possession today of the islands in the name of the government of Buenos Aires”'.

Ah ha! So if Vernet has only decided to take possession for BA in 1829, then by normal standards of logic, his settlement prior to 1829 obviously can't amount to possession.  Moreover, if possession is only taken in 1829, then the purported claim of possession by Jewet in 1820 evidently was not recognised by the Buenos Aires authorities in 1829. And if I'm not mistaken, this also calls into question the validity of uti possedits juris, in that clearly there wasn't much in the way of posseditis going on before 1829.

Historical nit-picking maybe, but the fun part is that nobody in the 90+ delegation seems to have noticed Marcelo blowing a hole in the Argentine case in front of the UN and CFK herself, while his testimony remains available on Argentine government websites, such as e,g, that of the Argentine ambassador to the UN :

      <description><![CDATA[Trying to use the period of 1828-1832 to justify Argentine "ownership" of the islands is an impossible task.

Everywhere you look there are lies and damned lies.

The simplest "truths" are that:

No civilian population was ever expelled
Everytime there was a murder it was an Argentine doing the murdering (Mestevier and Brisbane)
Everytime there was a rape it was an Argentine doing the raping (Mesteviers wife)

Given that between 1828-1832 there were only a couple of dozen inhabitants, and by November 1832 24 inhabitants and 50 militia...Clearly Argentina were militarising the South Atlantic to further their colonial ambitions sic..

Once Britain had established peace 140 years of relative calm followed, ruined only by more Argentine agression and 900 people died.

The pattern is clear:

When Argentina are involved, they either murder and rape each other or peaceful civilians..or start a war leading to massive death tolls.

When Britain is involved, there is order, calm and growing prosperity.

Self-determination...]]></description>

Seems to be a severe lack of common sense being shown by the, for want of a better word, Argentine delegation.  Given that sovereignty is not negotiable and that has been the consistent stand of the islanders and through them, HMG.  Little compromise, what ever that may entail, will not be achieved, until such time that common sense does return.]]></description>

Actually it not as big in the RG press as I expected. 
Timerman needs to gain big publicity from this trip or it is a massive failure, that's one reason he has been saying the most ridiculous things about Britain the last few days. He is hoping to provoke a reaction from the UK, politicians, public, press etc. If it doesn't make the news here it won't anywhere else except RG land. It will be a big blow to their colonial ambitions.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[@77 Even worse than that, the Argentines didn't even ratify the 'denuclearisation of latin america and the caribbean treaty' until a long time after the 1982 War of Aggression (I think they ratified it in 1992). So they were completely uncovered by the treaty during the war that they cause. The UK had no option but to cover all its bases during the time of the war and quite rightly did so. 

Timmerman is simply playing on people's ignorance, as they do every day with the Argentine masses.]]></description>

What drivel. The guy has clearly been sniffing glue. 20 years left of british sovereignty, nonsense, must be printing mistake, probably meant 200 years. If the Falklands left british hands, it would become independent and britain would fight to protect it
180 years of heartache, do me a favour, you guys only started pining for it in 1941. 
Britain has no support! What tosh, Britain has broken no laws, abides by the UN convention, Britain will have several countries on her side.
No persuation required... shows what they think of the islanders.

      <description><![CDATA[Thats all it is - an intended massive wind up. 

Imagine if Hague had gone to Buenos Aires and organised a meeting of  Pro Falklanders and was deliberately insulting Argentina and CFK right under her nose.  CFK and all would be hysterical. The media would be in a frenzy. She would demand they apologise and leave immediately whilst calling them all names under the sun and busing in her trusty vatayon militante and villeros and....  

That the UK is tolerating this circus shows the difference right here between the 2 countries.]]></description>

"Sunday, 30 August 1829 ... Vernet has decided to take possession today of the islands in the name of the government of Buenos Aires"

Note that Vernet received his authority during the "Revolutionary Government" of General Juan Galo de Lavalle, who usurped the governorship of Buenos Aires 01 December 1828. Lavalle murdered the incumbent governor of Buenos Aires, Manuel Dorrego on 13 December 1828.

Thus Vernet received his "authority" from the illegal and unconstitutional government of Buenos Aires (Argentina as a state did not exist).]]></description>

"Falklands will be under our control within 20 years, says Argentina"

Along with the Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Atlantis, Never never land,  Telly Tubbies land, Middle Earth, Paraguay, Uraguay, Chile, Thomas the Tank Engine's shunting station and  the piece of USA you tried to invade in the 19th century.

I say, Patagonia will be independent of Argentina in 20 years time, and trading with an independent Falkland Islands.

My far fetched assumption is more likely than Argentina's typically latino macho boast, which will end up with all Argentine arrogant macho  boasts-defeat, a white flag, and exactly the opposite occurring.]]></description>
