So what is this thing we share?
seperately but not together.

Mar 12th, 2013 - 09:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The only sharing I can see there is that Argentina fucked up and Britain is fixing up..... nothing new there......
Only the other day CFK was saying that the oil companies exploring for oil in the FALKLANDS could contribute to an environmental disaster in the South Atlantic, what a crock of s**t that women spouts.
Mar 12th, 2013 - 10:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@11 and she said the only people who could clean it up were the argentines... I do wonder about the psychology of these people.
Mar 12th, 2013 - 11:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Britain caused the extermination of the Warrah in the FALKLAND ISLANDS.
Mar 13th, 2013 - 02:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0Exterminated the Thylacine in Australia.
Extermininated the Passenger piegon in North America AND caused a massive oil leak in the Caribbean two years ago.
It is amazing how easily lies and immorality come to the Brits.
“and they leave the UK to clean up after them.”
Mar 13th, 2013 - 02:39 am - Link - Report abuse 0Anyway, the Dutch and the Argentines cleaned up this mess. Not the British team,who found no traces of diesel.
No need to make things up. Let the other guys do that.

Mar 14th, 2013 - 08:30 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I was surprised you did not become Pope as you continually pontificate on this forum. Your halo of self-righteousness is blinding us
Britain caused the extinction of the passenger pigeon, a species indigenous to N.America? How did we do that since the USA was independent of Britain since 1776 and the last wild bird was killed in approx.1900.
As you say that Argentinians are NOT Europeans it follows then that the destruction of flora and fauna in Argentina by
1) The introduction of alien species -cattle and sheep to the detriment of local indigenous wildlife;
2) The destruction of grasslands to plant wheat and other foreign crops;
3) Deforestation;
4) Planting of vines- another non indigenous plant.
5) Hunting of pumas, wolves and indigenous native tribes
must be laid at your doorstep ! ARGENTINIANS not British.
Of course, by your twisted logic, the UK must also be responsible for the ivory trade, rhino. horns, killing of the tiger for body parts, the demise of the highland gorilla, slaughter of sharks for their fins and destruction of the Brazilian rain forest.
Get real !!!
