    THE VIDEO ABOVE IS MADE BY AN ARGENTINE, COPIED FROM THE ORIGINAL 2006 VERSION - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DerD7RNMbDQ

    THIS IS DISGUSTING BECAUSE IT IS OUR OWN PEOPLE ABUSING THE MEMORY OF OUR WAR DEAD BY PASTING THESE IMAGES INTO ABOVE VIDEO.

    I ALSO REMEMBER THE GENERAL BELGRANDO, IF SHE HAD NOT BEEN SANK OUR PINCER MOVEMENT ON THE BRITISH FLEET WOULD HAVE SUCCEEDED.

    THE CAPTAIN OF THE BELGRANO HAS BEEN ON RECORD FOR OVER A QUARTER OF A CENTURY, SAYING THE SINKING WAS JUSTIFIED.

    IT DISGUSTS ME THAT SO CALLED PATRIOTS WANT TO USE THIS FOR POLITICAL CAPITAL. IT WAS A WAR, THE MEN ON THE BELGRANO DIED AS THE MEN ON THE BRITISH SHIPS. GET OVER IT.

    Here's a good quote gentlemen; I use it to refer to the insane patriotism of the average Argentine -

    “A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you're looking down, you can't see something that's above you.” C.S. Lewis quotes

    In almost every list pride, or hubris (patriotism), is considered the original and most serious of the seven deadly sins, and the source of the others. It is identified as a desire to be more important or attractive than others, failing to acknowledge the good work of others, and excessive love of self (especially holding self out of proper position toward God). Dante's definition was “love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbour.” In Jacob Bidermann's medieval miracle play, Cenodoxus, pride is the deadliest of all the sins and leads directly to the damnation of the titulary famed Parisian doctor. In perhaps the best-known example, the story of Lucifer, pride (his desire to compete with God) was what caused his fall from Heaven, and his resultant transformation into Satan. In Dante's Divine Comedy, the penitents were forced to walk with stone slabs bearing down on their backs to induce feelings of humility.

    Dante's definition is so applicable to Argentina's view of the Falkland Islands and her people; “love of self perverted to hatred and contempt for one's neighbour”. Governments can be expected to drum up nationalism but people should be expected to see through the lies and disinformation, especially when they affect the lives of others, often smaller people.

    As an Australian I came to this site specifically for that reason. I fell in love with the Falkland Islands and her people and I can not stand to see this endless barrage of propaganda, lies, distortions and hate directed at those islands and people by a neighbour 40,000 x larger.

    Jay D british australian
    I see a lot of hate perveted, love of self perveted to hatred on that video...absolutely it is well expressed with your words.
    And the british usurpators arent poor little people, they are very confortable with their british colony stealing others resources, the same Britian does in Middle East and Africa with bloodshed in those cases, ah and in the name of peace (your lies and propaganda wants to make as believe killing in the name of peace its not a crime, but it is and the worst of it).

    “I see a lot of hate perveted, love of self perveted to hatred on that video...”

    Original here -
    www.youtube.com/watch?v=DerD7RNMbDQ

    Pasted images of Falklands War JPL's version above, that version posted on an Argentinian's YouTube profile alongside other “malvinas” videos.

    So where is the “hate” coming from? What kind of nutcase takes a video like this, pastes images like that in and try to use it to drum up hatred? An Argentine nutcase.

    I have nothing against the Argentine people but you are led by psychopaths and you can not see it.

    As for British foreign policy, like all nations it's far from good. All nations are driven by self interest, like it or not that is the nature of the nation state system. I have been against British foreign policy since 9-11 and the war on terror. I like to judge things not based on national interest but right and wrong and clearly in the case of the Falklands, Argentina is wrong.
