@ Beef #5 Why should we invest in our navy and why should you be scared? Is there going to be a war or something? Are you planning to attack us?

Malvinas issue was resumed during the beginning of this year after Britain decided to authorize new drilling operations in the watershed of the Malvinas Islands.

The State Department remembered what happened in April 2009 and shows its interest on finding out if the Argentine government's answer to the British decision could damage the US companies [][[ does this not then prove that Argentina realy had no interest in the islands, untill britain did the drilling and noted oil, so without the oil argentina has no interest, with the oil, argentina loves the place, greed apon greed
