Oct 18th, 2010 - 09:17 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Are we reading the same article Think?
Last Friday the US Department of State during a press conference supported the Foreign Office comment that the “missile firing was routine, and has been for the last 28 years (since the end of the Falklands/Malvinas war)”,
However, Brazil is believed to have its second thoughts about signing such a binding document since the Brazilian diplomacy is ‘more flexible’
and always likes to have room for the extra edge. Furthermore it is already engaged in a defence-related cooperation agreement with the United Kingdom which was signed last month.
Our priority is good relations with Argentina”, admitted President Jose Mujica in a personal apology to the UK ambassador in Montevideo
Why are the English people so worried about Argetina? lol
Oct 18th, 2010 - 09:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The English have no reason at all to be worried about Argentina xbarilox, we Falkland Islanders however do worry about them, last time I saw Argies in the Falklands I was a young child....and they were pointing a gun at me.
Oct 18th, 2010 - 09:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So Brazil are happy to continue to give verbal support but unwilling to go a stage further a sign a document. They are also happy to accommodate ships connected to the oil exploration and were happy to meet and great the OG on her journey south.

Oct 19th, 2010 - 03:47 am - Link - Report abuse 0It is very unfortunate that certain political forces in both the UK and Argentina fail to recognize and understand the unique mutually beneficial opportunity that is presented to them in equitably resolving the Falklands' matter.
Oct 19th, 2010 - 04:22 am - Link - Report abuse 0Regardless of who did or said what 200+ years ago, or even 30 years ago, there is more than ample real estate and ocean to provide for the benefit of both nations and especially for those who call the Falklands 'home'.
The Islands' unique division into two substantially equal, if not nearly identical land principal masses make this a potential perfect dowry for a marriage made in BA and London.
As I have previously suggested, a demilitarized condominium is likely to be the very best permanent solution for this small dilema; one that would be a win-win-win (UK-Arg-FI) solution, with appropriate regulation of settlement, this seems like the basis for a wonderful relationship that might endure for many centuries that would effectively 'marry' the UK, Argentina and the Falkland Islanders in a perpetual commonwealth, whenin the costs and benefits of the condominum space can be shared and thus act as a springboard for the highly desirable union in that locality of the UK and Argentina ... two countries with what I take to be a natural affinity for each other, regardless of recent history ... provided the naysayers and other tunnel-visioners can be kept out of the way.

However, it appears you are not alone and that you share the same deluded fantasies & penchant to make reckless unfounded allegations as Timerman & the other revisionist propagandists in the Argentine State, who continues widespread systematic attacks directed against the civilian population of the Falklands & South Georgia, Sandwich Islands & British Antartica based on their political, racial, national, ethnic, cultural identity in flagrant breach of UN resolutions 1514(XV), 2065(XX) & Article 73.
If Argentina has a claim it should take it to the ICJ, of not it should cease it's unprovoked& unwarranted intimidation & persecution of these peaceful Islanders & accept the implement resoution 1514(XV) fully.

Oct 19th, 2010 - 06:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“1514 and shame on Argentina” :-) I like it ! Great slogan!
But seriously, Argentina does have obligations to Falklanders under 1514(XV) and 2065(XX), but cynically exploits its odd interpretation of territorial integrity to persecute the Falklanders and abrogate Argentina's responsibility to them.
I understand Argentina chooses to push all arguments for its claim, however tenuous, but it should not avoid it's duties to the Falklanders under 1514(XV) as confirmed by 2065(XX).
It is unreasonable to blackmail the Falklanders into annexation when their express wish is to remain free and then to complain after exercising their right to self-determination the Falklanders democratically chose to decline Argentine's demand for their annexation based on the flawed political propaganda and indoctrination of the past Argentine totalitarian regimes, as so well documented by Escude and other eminent academics.

Oct 19th, 2010 - 08:03 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I find it odd that Argentines desire and demand freedom for themselves but would deny that right and its principles to anyone else.
If Argentina declared it would respect the Falklanders rights, reconciliation and progress for all sides would be possible in the long term.
Friendship and cooperation is far more progressive than discriminatory alienation, confrontation and conflict.
In a modern world, it should be possible to embrace and achieve the former and steer clear of the latter.
Sad that the current impasse, argument and escalation are favoured rather than détente, cooperation and growing friendship.

Looks like the poit calling the Kettle black. Argentina has some cheek to tell Britain they are in violation of the international maritime law of the sea. So what do they call they're little piece of nasty work when they imposed a Falklands shipping blockade in international waters.
Oct 20th, 2010 - 02:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0It is sad that Argentina has to be the greedy dictator because she could have done so very much better has she accepted that we are who we are and have been so for almost as long as they have .

They have some of the finest Country in the world but saddly don't seem to know how to properly use it. Remember this Argentina. The Oil that could be arround or indeed under these shores is not a sound reason to justify your claim to these Islands. It makes you look ever more the bullies you obviously are.
Why we even extended a friendly hand to you and you tried to bite it of. When you have finnished growing up then by all means come and talk with us you may actually learn somethig more human like.
I have noticed a little pattern emerging...
Oct 20th, 2010 - 01:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina publically states something against the Falkland Islands and Britain. Argentine MeroPress commentators (Think, Alejandro et al) all pretty much say that “this is the beginning of the end of Britain's grasp over Las Malvinas” or one “large step in Argentina's regaining the Malvinas”. But nothing happens. The Falklands continue to use their right to self-determination, and I continue to be British. For the last 14 months I have been reading Mercopress articles and their subsequent comments, every single Argentine poster claims that it is the end of Britain's reign over the South Atlantic! But it never is. Everything just continues as it was. Think, the reality is that the screw isnt turning. Alejandro, the reality is that Britain is not feeling lonely. Argentina are the ones so desperate to gain support and is blackmailing all its neighbors into supporting their claim. Britain knows it has support, and knows if it doesnt, it can continue alone. Argentina knows it needs to force eveyone into some kind of alliance because they know they are weak and that their claim is weak.
Think believes the laughably named 'Denial of supplies/services' is working. But he doesnt live here, and he assumes it is working. Think, you can carry on to believe whatever you want to and continue to live in your delusion. But the Islanders know it isnt working, and it only harms Argentina'a international image.
Think, please expalin these turns of the screw(2)- along with my other requests for you to produce pratical evidence of the“pressures” and trade barriers etc?

“But the search for truth must begin at home. Ten days from now, the high court in London will hear evidence of torture and unlawful killing of Iraqi civilians at the hands of British forces. The thousands of allegations presented by our clients point to systemic problems at the heart of the UK military system that necessitate a single judicial inquiry into British detention policy in Iraq. Extreme physical violence, hooding, the use of stress positions, and sleep deprivation were apparently standard operating procedure. Of particular concern are the many allegations of sexual abuse, even male rape”
