Oh goody! In Britain, we stand in SILENCE to commemorate our war dead. Possibly after a prayer. In argieland, they have to have a political speech by a crim slut. Perhaps we could join in. We could blow down your wall and blow out your “eternal” flame. On the subject of “eternal” flames, do you have enough gas? Will you be able to pay the gas bill?

Oh wait, not in propagandaland where they don't understand they caused the war.
I do hope lots of UNASUR presidents turn up to celebrate Argentina starting a war. That would just make my day.
74 days of a dictatorship that ruled the Falkland Islands being celebrated by the Queen of the Nazi comedians.

Delusion on a grand scale.
@7 it's the logical equivalent of every 1 September Germany having a massive celebration of the Invasion of Poland, referring to all the Germans in WW2 as Protagonists and the Allies as Antagonists, then telling all the commanders and people who fought in on the side of the Nazis they were heroes and giving them pensions. Then the Germans would need to call all the allies attacks on their navy wrong, and any attacks on germany misplaced. Then if they Germans blamed everything on the Nazis absolving themselves of any guilt and then putting “Poland is German” into their constitution and setting up an administration to govern poland. Then imagine them inviting France, Spain and Italy to come and celebrate the invasion of Poland with them.
Mar 27th, 2012 - 06:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0These Argentinians are categorically delusional and deranged. There is no hope for them.

@10 Considering these seemingly innocuous 'nobel laureates' never even have the common courtesy to refer to the islands by their correct name 'the Falkland Islands' then I'd be saying a categorical 'NO' to a bunch of useful idiots demanding that I do something against the will of the people living there. One of them is even a man of the cloth, who should know better than align himself with a despotic kakistocracy.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen she works for the International Campaign to Ban Landmines.
Mar 27th, 2012 - 07:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Q. Now where is there a country that not only went against international law by not mapping their mine-fields, but also were under orders to just throw them out of planes when they felt like it?
A. Argentina.
So not only does she show 'moral' support for a country that has done nothing to recover the landmines that they illegally placed, but she also slaps the people who live in the place affected by the mines across the face by referring to the place they live by the name imposed on them by a fascist dictatorship. Desmond Tutu jumped on that 'love the landminer' boat too.
Apparently, if you need a useful idiot, you have only to check if Norway gave them a peace award, using KFCs definition of peace (i.e. war).
Yet another tirade of Anglophobic rhetoric from CFK, now whilst commemorating the fallen of the last conflict with the Brit pirates.

Mar 27th, 2012 - 09:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0So sit down at the table and discuss you say? Now please answer me this:
Argentina now has it formally enshrined in its Constitution that the Sovereignty of the Islands territory are imprescriptably Argentina and can only be Argentine.
That means that from the Argentine side there can only be ONE result of any such talks -
Full Sovereign Takeover and Rule by Argentina - Arg. has already made it clear many times that the wishes and democratic rights of the Islanders are irrelevant.
Please answer me this - How do you go into free open democratic negotiations to try and see if all sides can find a solution acceptable to all-
if one side has already sworn that there can only be one result?

Mar 27th, 2012 - 09:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0”UK, is time to act honorably, the world is observing the behavior of one permanent member of the Security Council and his future rol(sic) in compliance with international governance.”
As an Argentino HOW DARE YOU EVEN SPEAK ABOUT 'HONOUR' to the UK? As a NATION YOU DO NOT EVEN UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THE WORD. As for governance I suggest you start with your own country and get rid of the Mad Bitch that is attempting to destroy what wwas once a respected member of the International Community: but no more.
And as for the link you have put here, do you really think anyone in their right mind is going to take any notice of this bunch of self-seeking do-gooders?
The cast of characters for this comedy comprises of Adolfo Pérez Esquivel, Chief Prat and Master of Lies and Obfurscation;
What a disappointment with Desmond Tutu being in the cast;
Mairead Corrigan Maguire of Northern Island, sponsored the Chief Prat for his Nobel Prize;
Rigoberta Menchu Tum (Guatemala) what can one say?
Jody Williams (USA) landmine activist for the banning of them globally, with the other bunch formed the Nobel Women's Initiative for womens rights (bet that went down well in LatAm);
Shirin Ebadi (Irán) fought for womens rights within Islam. This is the only one I have any real feeling for: what an uphill struggle for the woman.
Such a pity they have allied themselves with the Chief Prat over this issue. It has nothing to do with anyone else other than the Falkland (there are no Malvinas) Islanders.
You know it, we know it, stop whining and STFU.
@24 Chris, Shirin Ebadi lives safely in exile in the UK. Kind of ironic that she wants to live in fear from tyranny under the umbrella of the UK people, but given that the Argentinian constitution says that sovereignty isn't negotiable in any way, she wants the Falklanders to have their lives passed over to a country that they have nothing to do with. This is while in Argentina corruption and poverty are rife?
Mar 27th, 2012 - 09:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Are these peace prizes worth any more than a few sheets of toilet roll? Maybe a norwegian can explain what the hell this is all about.
Shes a great politician in the sense that shes good at manipulating the masses. Compare her body language and oration skills to Timmerman's. All very seemingly natural, confident, charasmatic - which he certainly isnt.
Mar 27th, 2012 - 09:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0However shes not so bright for someone whos in charge of a large country. Her huge ego, chip on her shoulder and belief in herself and ideals have powered her to the top but really her government (and most probably most Argentian politicians) are woefully out of their depth with their policies and how they implement them. Its like a terribly corrupt council of a small isolated market town trying to run an entire country.
@19 Now I'm laughing at you and your personal demonstration of the depths to which envy, weakness and incompetence can drive an individual.

Mar 27th, 2012 - 11:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You say :
“ Argentina now has it formally enshrined in its Constitution that the Sovereignty of the Islands territory are imprescriptably Argentina and can only be Argentine ”
Let see how everybody see Malvinas.....
- The United Kingdom included the Falkland Islands in the Treaty of Lisbon as a territory of UK
- The UK unilaterally identifies the islands as BOT and puts the Queen as head of government in al gov and state records.
- The Constitution of FIG also establishes real prerogatives for the Queen and her territory
- The Constitution of Argentina establishes a claim waived and a quest to achieve peaceful sovereignty of Malvinas Islands taking into account the interests of the islanders
so, i wonder whats the problem for each part for record his claim and position ?
- Even the people of Hong Kong and other former colonies had recently changes in his statutes of governing.
My point is that things could change easly.....everything is perfectible and subject to change, all you need is a willingness to resolve this historical dispute.
The Argetnine president was very clear in their statements and made it clear that Argetnina is NOT demanding that the UK delivers the islands right now .... just ( like the international community) and 30 UN resolutions is asking that both countries need to sit down and negotiate sovereignty of the islands.
I think you and all the islanders are well aware of this and only delay the inevitable comes to making excuses for the international community no longer believes.

Welcome to GreekYoghurt, Conqueror, Isolde and Cia Club ... you really deserve this honor, enjoy it wise man.
No time to post a long political comment now, just to say I'd rather take the side of the Nobel Laureates than a bunch of BNP and neoliberal trolls. Also would like to say my Queen looks SO beautiful in the picture above, thanks mercopress, they say a picture is worth a thouand words; elegance, charisma, passion, sincerity, courage, heroism, majesty, youthful freshness, wise maturity, chic, style, poise, strength and radiance are just some that come to mind =) Ti amo mi reina, L-U-V Cristina =)

The Argentinian president was very clear when she said 'Sovereignty is non-negotiable' so which part of that are you struggling to understand?
There aren't a total of 30 resolutions 'calling' for the UK to do anything and the recent resolutions don't even mention the falklands, because it's a dead topic.
Argentina refused to abide by the security council resolutions and any ICJ/ICA rulings because they claim it has no jurisdiction. Then your president talks about negotiations under the UN Framework, so she's clearly either an imbecile or a lot ignorant.
Get over being single though, you'll find a girl one day who likes your sh!t chat.

I imagine a flight sim geek who somehow conned a major airline into thinking he was fully qualified to captain a 747.
But now he is on the flight deck and wondering just how much longer he can wing it before somebody realises the truth. He isn't qualified and doesn't know what he is doing.
Neither does KFC.

You will know that neither the Islanders nor the British share that opinion, as they are entitled not to.
Untill there is a change of opinion/s, there is clearly no point in any talks.
I do not see any prospect of either the Islanders, or the British changing their minds any time in the foreseeable future.
