Your analysis of Commonwealth nations is simply gibberish. I recommend you tell the next Australian or Kiwi that you meet what your views are - then duck and run.

May 27th, 2010 - 02:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If you and Argentina truely believe that, if you truely believe that the Falklander islanders are there illegally, and that the UK retaining sovereignty is illegal, then why oh why haven't you taken it to the ICJ?
If you are so sure of your arguements and your claim, why are you afraid to take it to the international court?
Argentina is part is part of indigenous land currently illegally occupied by white men and their squatters just that!

May 28th, 2010 - 12:26 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Monarch is head of state in several different countries, but the sovereignty of the people is supreme in these countries, if they wanted they could vote to get an elected head of state if they so wished, so it seems to me that monarch has no power.
Now dear retard, if they were autonomous regions? Why on earth are they in the UN they seem to be independent states in my mind and everyone elses, in fact where does it say in any democratic hand book that you must have an elected head of state, or even have a head of state to function as an independent state? different democratic constitutional arrangments favor different countries, it's taken Argentina the best part of 200 years to get their chosen “superior” model squared away and even then Argentina's democracy is shakey to say the least, they have democratic elections but in between that democracy is out the window! Too much corruption and patronage and butt licking the Kircheners being the worst, the head of states husband being in charge of the legislature and several close family and friends being in charge of various degrees of government organs in the provinces? We might as well call the current Argentine regime the Kirchner Monarchy, because that is how she acts, divine providence I don't think a British head of state has said that since Charles I during the english civil war, and he lost his head, both mentally and physically!
I think if you withdrew your ambassadors for that reason it would be construed as nothing more than anglophobic racism and confirm in many peoples eyes the idea that Argentina despite it's illusions of democracy still behaves in a baffling and irrational manner on the international stage.
