Timerman firmly stated that “the UK will lose the Falkland Islands in the negotiating table because the world of colonialism doesn’t exists any more.”

Nov 09th, 2010 - 10:09 am - Link - Report abuse 0Timerman is a fool
Saying and doing are worlds apart.
Nov 09th, 2010 - 03:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I thought the memento24 article interesting. Partly because of el stupido Timerman's reliance on resolutions that were never binding and are now out of date and irrelevant, but also because of the appended comments.
Nov 09th, 2010 - 06:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0In due time, there will be an orderly transfer of sovereignty from Britain to the Falklanders. Probably supported by a defence treaty with Britain.
Britain will not permit the Falkland Islands to become another Sudetenland.

You obviously are full of hate and ignorance, but that aside, the UK can't do nothing about it. It is something that goes beyond Britain's wishes, it is something that involves human lives from both sides of the conflict, and it goes far beyond the abuse of political pedantry and lack of understanding of some people, only to make a group of people happier and comfortable. What about the other group of people? Will you shut them up? You know you've lost the argument when all you have left to “defend” your cause is to demand that the other party be shut up.
This is something that should be talked about between the government of my country and the British government (I would like to say the Falklanders, but I see the Falklanders have no voice in this) to come to an agreement that makes us both, my country and the UK, “happy”.
It's weird to see the UK is not used to talk about things, in Argentina we talk about everything, even though we are not in perfect harmony, but we at least talk about things. Talking is better than going to war. Don't be afraid of talking, if your arguments are strong enough (and I do believe they are), then you should not be afraid of talking and giving your reasons.
Reasons eh Xbox...
Nov 10th, 2010 - 02:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0try this for size, The Falklands are our home, we have existed here for generations. However much you RGs flap your hands and try to deny that we have any rights in the issue is irelevant, the truth is we do have rights and we do have a voice in our future. This might stick in your craw but guess what?.....tough luck, get over it.

Nov 10th, 2010 - 04:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Dear WestisBest, Did I say you have no rights? I said this is something the government of my country and that in England should talk about, because no matter how hard you try to act like you're commanding this ship, you're not. You gave the power to those men in England.
I say let's all have a talk about this issue, you talk, we talk, you show what you've got and end of story, and Cristina and the Malvinists finally understand. Why not talking about this? Why evading a dialogue? It looks like there is something making you feel all insecure about not having an argument strong enough to justify your presence on the islands. You can flap your hands but the governments will have to talk, sooner or later, about this issue, because you can't tell people to shut up just because you say they have to, that's not the way things work. I'm sure you have the rights to be there, but the British government should have the desire to have a constructive dialogue, there's nothing to fear.
“Argentina can't do nothing about it.

“Why evading a dialogue?”
Because there is nothing to talk about, the islanders are happy. They don't need to justify there presence on the islands, because they live there and are happy.
Question: Why should they care about what Argentina wants or feels?
@ Zethee the fascist #11

Because this is not about feelings or caring, this is about living in this part of the world, year 2010. These are not the medieval times, they're gone forever. We talk about things, we talk about everything, and the British government will learn to talk too. That's how civilized people act, they talk.
Do you even know what Fascism is...? And how Hypocritical it is for an Argentine to say that in regard to the Falklands?
Nov 10th, 2010 - 08:56 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina has been rejecting the fact that the islanders are a cultural group, Which is at it's heart is Fascism.
The UK in this matter, nomatter what you think there motives are. Is holding up the islanders rights to self determination, which is a Democratic human right.
“Because this is not about feelings or caring”
I disagree, this is totally about feelings, The islanders have a right to choose there own government, and they have: The UK.
siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
