Sep 29th, 2011 - 07:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0and you wonder why the world laughs at you .
This sound like it came right out the script of “Carry on in Patagonia”! Is this what lefties celebrate these days?
Sep 29th, 2011 - 08:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Oh FFS, celebrating an act of terrorism, sorry but this makes Argentina a fucking laughing stock.

Sep 29th, 2011 - 08:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0this goes to show how passionate the argentine people are towards those islands. the average brit wouldn't know where they are located and they need to send some member of the royal family once every 10 years so that people remember them when they appear in the papers.
Sep 29th, 2011 - 09:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I suppose when they have nothing better to do than celebrate the actions of terrorists you also have to expect that they are unable to string an intelligent sentence together in Spanish, let alone realise that posts here have to be in English.
Sep 29th, 2011 - 09:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No Troneas, is shows how pathetic and worthless you are. If you really wanted the FI then you at least have the balls to do something about it. None of your supporters are even bothered to take any actions but are happy to profit from doing business with the Islands.

@6 you'll have to excuse him. he is chilean.
Sep 29th, 2011 - 09:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0THIS WAS WORLDS FIRST TERRORIST HIJACKING - IT WAS WORLD FIRST FOR ARGENTINA.
Sep 29th, 2011 - 09:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0THIS WAS TIME WHEN ARGENTINA WAS STRONG AND POLITICAL DISSIDENTS WERE DISAPPEARED. WE WOULD HAVE TAKEN GOOD CARE OF YOU PIRATES AND STILL WILL!
This is how insane our country has become, captured by the Peronist dynasty fascists, the Kirchner dynasty helped play their parts in massacres too! Up to their necks in blood but still the Argentine people too stupid to understand. Just follow the drum beat of las malvinas propaganda. Read the article my amigos, read it and weep for the blood of our people is on your hands, everyones hands who did nothing but look away, READ the article -
Sep 29th, 2011 - 10:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0“The ceremony ended with the award of remembrance plaques to the living members of the operation and relatives of the rest of the 18-strong group.
Less than a decade later the name “Condor Operation” was given to the coordinated action by South American military dictatorships to hunt, torture and disappear dissidents and opponents from the different regimes of the region.
Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile and Bolivia were part of that concerted effort that left thousands dead and disappeared.
Likewise the UOM leader Vandor was killed and his office destroyed in 1969 as a result of in-fighting between the hegemonic Peronist movement.”

I find all of these suggestions that the Argies are passionate about the islands quite funny. If they were really passionate about them then why did they surrender in 1982?
Sep 30th, 2011 - 05:40 am - Link - Report abuse 014 Beef,
Sep 30th, 2011 - 07:00 am - Link - Report abuse 0ha,haaaaaa!! you are so funny!! The Island are back us soon!!! =+))

Sep 30th, 2011 - 07:44 am - Link - Report abuse 0I don't think “Operation Condor” will ever be made into a movie. I cant see the plot line of 18 men catch a flight to a peaceful island & plant a flag as being on par with say saving private ryan or bravo two zero.
Sep 30th, 2011 - 09:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0LOL celebrating a HIJACKING now that is a poco loco even for the Argi's, and it was so well planed to. but they did get the plain back, sent Courtesy of the Islanders by sea, as we had no need of any Argi scrap,
Sep 30th, 2011 - 09:22 am - Link - Report abuse 0Upsidedown Arggentina promotes vulgar piracy. Thank you very much,

Sep 30th, 2011 - 11:43 am - Link - Report abuse 0Sounds like a terrorist threat. It is game only stupid people play. You could end up like Al Queda operatives who are being killed by Western special forces.
this is what happens when children play with matches,
Sep 30th, 2011 - 12:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0and these same children want to be aloud to play with nuclear toys,
she is fast becomeing a laughing stock, even her so called friends are hiding their heads in shame,
the world moves forward,
and argentina still keeps running backwards .

Sep 30th, 2011 - 02:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0my thought is that the brits oil refinery/Singapour sabotage is made
from the “” Haqqani Organization “” not “” Al Queda “” !!
For a country to not only condemn terrorists acts in public,
Sep 30th, 2011 - 06:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0But actively celebrates terrorists acts in private,
Is nothing short of a disgrace, Argentina thus should be thrown out of [OAS] [UNASURE] [UN]
And should be ostracised, you are a total disgrace to mankind
And to democracy, you should be ashamed,
,
24 briton THIS WAS THE WORLDS FIRST TERRORIST AIR HIJACKING, IT IS SOMETHING FOR NATIONAL PRIDE. WE ARE FIRST IN MANY THINGS.
Sep 30th, 2011 - 06:53 pm - Link - Report abuse 0MAN WHO ORGANIZED OPERATION CONDOR WAS HIMSELF KILLED IN ANOTHER OPERATION CONDOR AIMED AT REMOVAL OF SOCIALISTA AND OTHER POLITICAL LEFTISTS.
THIS WE SHOULD CELEBRATE AS PROOF THAT REGARDLESS OF PATRIOTISM POLITICAL DISSIDENTS IN ARGENTINA WERE NOT TOLERATED AND SHOULD NOT BE TODAY!!!!!
for those who support such acts, thus cannot complain when such atcs are done against her,
Sep 30th, 2011 - 07:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0how you treat your own people , is for the world to see,
I guess in a few years time they will also celebrate the 45 years since the Cronica airplane crash in Stanley?
Sep 30th, 2011 - 07:49 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If the Argentine Government support this group of terrorists that high jacked this plane in 66 then they should be classed as terrorists themselves and be brought to justice. Argentina can now be seen as a terrorist country where terrorists can be hunted and exterminated like the rats that they are.

Sooner or later, we will find you. And then all your problems will be over. FOREVER! I give you 5 years maximum. Start counting.

Yes, this lovely nation of peace loving people tortured and killed upwards of 35000 of its own people and even executed the Metal workers union leader who organised it.Are they remembering his unfortunate death. No they are celebrating another wonderful piece of South American utter stupidity. I repeat...they even killed the Union leader who organised it !! As a nation,they do not even know how to hold their head in shame. Cfk is probably redecorating the Naval Mechanics School, known as ESMA.
@30 Viscount Falkland,
