Mar 28th, 2012 - 07:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I am very pleased that the Falklanders (there are no Malvinas) are going to write to each of these foolish individuals to point out one or two salient issues.
Mar 28th, 2012 - 07:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0May I respectfully point out that some of the islanders have been there for nine generations and the instigator of the excrable uninformed letter is himself a first generation Argentinian.
Keep up the good work. My best wishes to everyone on the Falklands.

Noble Peace Prize Winners do not live in the real world. Ellen Johnson Sirleaf won, and now she is introducing anti-gay laws into her country. She sounds like a fool, but would fit it well in Argentina. Though, the Casa Rosada being the 'Pink House' may sound a little too homosexual for her liking!

” It is difficult to envisage how the General Declaration of the United Nations could have been construed to benefit the same subjects of the colonial power who - whether they in fact knew it or not - had been the very instrument of the colonial venture through which British occupation and continuing presence on the Islands had been maintained in the face of Argentina's protests. ”

Nobel Peace laureates should visit Falklands before reaching any conclusion
Mar 28th, 2012 - 07:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Took the words right out of my mouth but I would add that they also study the history of the islands very thoroughly. Both from the perspective of Argentina and from the perspective of the FI and the UK.
Because, if they visit the islands and study the history and then still reckon that Argentina should take control we will then know that it is not a sense of altruism from which these good folk derive their concern but from the axe(s) they are grinding.
The more sabre-rattling the Argentinians do, the more publicity the Islanders get about their cause. The more hypocrisy the knobel not-peace prize winners belch, the more publicity the Islanders get about their cause. The more Le Camping people stroke their mullets, the more publicity the Islanders get about their cause...et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

FI agreed with Britain on a new constitution to take affect by January 1,2009 replacing the charter adopted in 1985.Th new document approved by Queen formalizes the system of self government on the South Atlantic Archipelago while giving Britain the final say on foreign policy,policing,the administration of justice according to a joint statement.The statement also said that the new constitution clarifies the relationship between the Executive Council and Islands' Governor who is appointed by the London Government.It makes clear council members are responsible for the most domestic policies,but the Governor retains veto power that can be exercised in the intersts of the good governance.Britain still retains reponsibility for external affairs,defense ,internal security and administration of justice.........

@6 And an article by a prat is supposed to prove what? Adrian F.J. Hope prat writes in 1983. Pity he didn't start his little legal fairytale in 1690. Or even in 1765. Both long before the land of the genocidal argies existed!

Dear Malvinistas,
Mar 28th, 2012 - 09:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Any chance that the Argentinian government, media and education system could disscuss the recent official British gov/FIG response to Argentinas claims to the Falklands??!! Its not very long but makes a number of clear points.
Im not saying you have to agree with whats said.
But in the interests of democracy and having a spine perhaps you could counter all the points made by the letter instead of maintaining the matter as the (ridiculously) simple fairytale of nasty Britain invading the islands in 1833 and forcefully expelling the honourable, peace loving Argentines from them. Theres alot more to the issue - as the letter states - than what your gov, media and education system want the population to believe.
Also from a political point of view can any Malvinista deny the power of the Las Malvinas issue?
As a political tool it has been very effective in promoting and maintaining nationalism which obviously is always to the detriment to democracy.
Before the dictatorships Argentina didnt care too much about Las Malvinas. Then the murdering, ultra corrupt regimes come along and Las Malvinas becomes their raizon detre...
Las Malvinas = nationalism = failure of democracy

@ 44 Oh wow you have six people who quite clearly know next to nothing about this case. If they are truly advocates for peace, then they would consider the rights of the islanders and not just lap up the drivel put out by the RG propaganda machine. You will never get the Falklands, ever (I didn't use the word 'back' as Argentina has never properly owned them). They rightfully belong to the islanders who wish to remain under British sovereignty. Fact is, the islands are not ours to give away, as in our country democracy dictates that it is the islanders who decide their fate. I don't know whether the same democratic laws apply in Argentina. If you want the islands, you'll have to chat to the islanders about it. Sadly for you, you don't recognise them and therefore can't negotiate with them. QED You'll never get them.

Mar 29th, 2012 - 02:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If the government from the islands is going to write the nobel winners, then i hope it tells them that the malvinas-falkland cause has always been considered like a special colonial situation, i hope it tells them that the u. n never applied the right to self determination for this dispute, like it did with others colonial situations, i hope it tells too the u. n never expressed that the sovereignty must be discussed only if the islanders wish it, i hope it tells them that in 1985, the u. k. tried to include references about self determination for this cause twice, and most international comunity voted against those proposals. I hope it tells them also that argentina has always manifested that it's diposed to renew the safeguards and the guarantees for the islanders, which had been negotiated with the u. k. before 1982, and it rejects that proposal, in the same way that it rejects sitematicly to resume the negotiations like the u. n and most international comunity manifest. It should tell too that teven c. f. k argued in diferent oportunities that we just ask the u. k. to dialague with us and find a fair solution, under the respect for the u. n resolutions, which dont say absolutly anthing about a transference of sovereignty, i'm sure that the local government from the islands, is going to have enough intellectual honesty, and it's going to tell the nobel winners in it's letter about all these questions, or per haps i'm just dreaming.
Mar 29th, 2012 - 03:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Anyway for being honest, i dont deny that may be our government didn't act correctly when it recalled the agreements that it had signed with the u. k. during the 90's, but at the same time, neather great britain, nor the islanders never accepted to discuss about the sovereignty, and that's not correct eather, nobody can ignore that the sovereignty is the main problem, and it must discussed, but it doesn't mean that the only one outcome for us, is the transference of sovereignty to arg. like your side parrots all the time.

Mar 29th, 2012 - 11:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Written into The Arg Constitution is the clause that clearly states that the Islands must belong to full sovereign control of Argentina. No other option is allowable under the Arg Constitution.
Now - please explain to me how and Argentine Govt can possibly sit down with UKandFI and talk about sovereignty negotiations and solutions - other than stating that there will only be ONE solution - Full Argentine Sovereignty over the Islands?
Any other option would mean that Arg Govt was breaking Arg Law and its own Costitution!
That is why there will NOT be any Sovereignty Negotiations - how can there be when one side has it written into its laws in advance that there can only be one result?
Democratic Negotiations are when all sides discuss a problem and look for a mutually acceptable solution - which always means that each give a bit and a compromise may be reached! Argentina has already ruled that out beforehand!
Democratic Negotiations are what Britain and FI and Arg WERE involved in before April 2nd 1982! They were un ilaterally - and terminally ended by Arg military invasion.
Ans dont come back with stuff about that was a dictatorship - FACT - it was the INTERNATIONALLY accepted Government of Argentina - and Millions of Argentine citizens were singing its praises after 2nd April!!!
And do not come back with any stuff about special consideratiuons for islanders etc! That is NOT the issue - Sovereignty IS.
Apart from anything else even you must admit that Argentina ccoul not be trusted to ever uphold any agreements over any special concessions etc!! Their record on upholding agreements is not exactly inspiring is it!
Does anyone happen to know what the proper procedure would be for the necessary ammendment to be made to the Argentine constitution?

Mar 30th, 2012 - 02:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0BRITON: The only one ignorant silly is you, only and ignorant who doesn't have any idea like you, about what a dictaorship is, can make such a superficial analysis about it.
Firstly, it's not argentina's fault if the u. n never invoked the right to self determination for the malvinas-falkland cause, like it did with others colonial situations, i already explained one million times, the way that the cause is considered by the u. n.
On the other hand, if we are going to talk about thieves, per haps you should remain in silence, because it wasn't argentina the country that become the islands into a colony, it was the u. k actually, and respeting what arg, stole to chile, that's a myth which is repetaed by ingorants like you who doesn't know anything, we had many conflicts with chile, but most them were already solved, beside, the argentine state made historic reparations for having stolen the lands of the indigenous populations, and for having killed many of them, their rights are included in the constitution. What kind of historic reparation has the u. k. done for arg, for having deprived it from the islands in 1833?, of course it wont never do anything, study and dont parrot mythes, like all the mediocre people.
ISLANDER: We already discussed about it, beyond what our const, says, the u. n never asked the u. k. to transfer the sovereignty to arg., so, the islands wont never be only under arg. sovereignty, what you argue, is just an excuse, i already explained many times that even c. f. k manifested that what we ask the u. k., is to dialague with us and find a faie solution. On the other hand, it's very easy to criticise the behaviour of our people the 2nd of april of 1982, but what you ignore is that during the dictatorship there was not any freedom of press, all the chanels were in the hands of the junta, and twisted information about this cause, my next investigation will be about this issue, study and dont parrot partial truthes .

We have seen the Argentinian police gunning down their own poeple like dogs in the street, we know you Disappear people who speak out about the government. Throw nun's out of planes, and has ANYONE in the argentine state made historic reparations to the indigenous populations of the Falklands for their cowardly and distestable invasion of 1982?
So I think that it is you who is ignorant and silly. Ignorant because you don't know what your own government is up to and silly because you don't suspect for one monent that your governemtn is lying to you.

Mar 31st, 2012 - 08:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You are per harps the best example of the ignorant who just buys twisted information or lies.
Firstly, who told you that here dissapear people who speak out about the government?, how can you believe that?, it doesn't resist any debate, may be only you and isolde can believe it, but you dont imagen how rediculous you are when you argue about it. Regarding the historic reparations for the indigenous people, i explained about it, and i dont need to add anything else. Anyway i also think that argentina should make a historic reparation for having invaded the islands, it should apologize the islanders for it, and i have always thought too that arg, should pay for the elimination of some mines which were put in some fields during the war. Beside, i dont deny that may be our government didn't act correctly when it recalled the agreements that it had signed during the 90's with the u. k., but at the same time, it never accepted to discuss about the sovereignty, which is not correct eather. Nobody can ignore that the sovereignty is the main problem, and it must be discussed, on the other hand, the u. n never said that the sovereignty must be discussed only if the islanders wish it, in the same way that self determination was never applied for the people from the islands, like it was for others colonial situations. Finally, let me tell you that i criticise our government for diferent situations, however it's your side the one never does any critic and doesn't recognize any of the mistakes that your government makes, so, lest see who is being the true silly.
Axel,
Apr 01st, 2012 - 07:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0There is nothing to talk about.
We say that you have NO RIGHTS here.
NADA. Can you not understand that?
So WHY should we have negotiations?
There will be NO NEGOTIATIONS on Sovereignty.
lf you cannot accept that, then all you have left is War or Court.
But you all keep telling us that Argentina is Peaceful
Your decision, Axel.
ISOLDE.
Apr 01st, 2012 - 05:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why do you consider tha arg. is not peaceful?, does it invade countries?, how many countries did it invade after 1982?. You only play the victim and dont do any critic for the mistakes that your side makes too, so, understand once and for all, if you have unless one line of intelligence, that the hard decitions which were taken by our government, are due to the rejection of your side to respect the resolutions from the u. n, anway if you consider that there is nothing to talk about with us, then dont complain about the hard decitions of our government, did you expect flowers?.
On th ether hand, i dont deny that here crimes are commited everyday, like in all the rest of the world, but it doesn't mean that people who speak out about the government disapear. Only an ignorant can buy that. Anyway, planty of abuses are commited in some prisons where not even the most elemental human rights are respected, that's terrible and obviously that shows that still there is a lot to do for human rights, but it doesn't mean eather that we must ignore all what was done in order t0 improve the situation of human rights in the country.
Axel,
Apr 02nd, 2012 - 11:03 am - Link - Report abuse 0dont complain about the hard decisions of our government
What hard decisions, Axel? Your government has no decisions to make, hard or otherwise.
Are you making another threat? lt sounds like it.
lt doesn't seem to penetrate your thick head that these are not your lslands & you have no rights here.
Argentina is a foreign overseas country with no more rights than, for example, the Congo.
Of course Argentina is not peaceful, you must be mad to think that it is.
Argentina is a warmongering neo-colonialist nation that is trying to steal our land.
Argentina is implosing a blockade.
Argentina does not respect our flag
Argentina rpeatedly tells lies about us at the UN.
Argentina wants to remove us from OUR land
Argentina wants to steal OUR oil & fish
Argentina harrasses our fishing fleet
Argentina bullies its neighbours to get them to harrass us too.
Argentina continually insults us, calling us implanted, pirats, squatters etc
And now, Axel, you want to know why l say Argentina is not peaceful
Do you deny any of this?
Argentina is a Rogue State.
ISOLDE.
Apr 02nd, 2012 - 02:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As you can see, i dont to use to answer your comments so often, because when i read them, i see that you have such a closed mind, with the most radical posture betwen all your compatriots, so, it's imposible to have an interesting debate with somebody who thinks like you.
Anyway this time i decided to answer you, because your omissions and conclusions are amazing. Firstly, i have said that i dont deny that maybe our government didn't act correctly when it recalled the agreements that it had signed in the 90's with the u. k, beside i have always said also that our politcians make omisions too when they reffer this dispute, that's why i investigate.
But at the same time, if you have enough intellectual honesty you can't ignore that your side is not acting correctly eather, if both nations are called to resume the negotiations, it must be respected by both, however your side has never accepted to discuss about the sovereignty, which is the main issue, anyway accepting to discuss about it, doesn't implicate a submition to the argentine sovereignty, that's a very wrong argument, because the u. n has never asked the u. k to return the islands to arg., beside, i already explained in diferent oportunities about the true posture of my country, what was expressed by c. f. k before diferent forums, and the distortions that your side commits when it reffers what is expressed in our constitution regarding our claim. Your problem is that you dont want any fair solution, you only play the victim, and dont recognize yor mistakes. Finally, i would like to know who put in your mind the crazy and ignorant idea, about the fact that arg. wants to remove your people from the islands, we are not a dictatorship, how can you think that, beyond how much you hate us, you can't buy so easily such a wrong and ignorant argument.
@78Axel,
Apr 02nd, 2012 - 10:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You just do not listen, do you?
The UN General Assembly Resolutions that call for negotiations are RECOMENDATIONS.
Any country has the right to refuse to comply with them.
We see no need to negotiatewith anyone, so we exercise our RIGHT not to negotiate. To refuse. lt is our RIGHT.
That is the complete end of the matter.
lf you love UN Resolutions that much, explain how Argentina ignore UN Security Council Resolution #502 which called for Argentina to remove its invading troops from the Falklands in April 1982.
UNGA Resolutions are recomendations
UNSC Resolutions MUST be obeyed. Argentina DID NOT OBEY.
We will not Negotiatewith you Axel, because there is nothing to negotiate.
There is nothing that you can/will give us,
Yet you want us to just GIVE you control of our country.
No, Axel, no. nyet non nein nogat hindet tiida la.
All means NO.
Your great cowardly Admiral Jorge Anaya was one of the monsters who advocated removing us from our lslands. there were many others.
You are correct in only one thing, Axel.
l am probably what one would call a hardliner
l believe that we should allow NO Argentines, ever, on OUR lslands.
Hope this clears this up for you.
NONE, EVER
79 - Fair Isolde
Apr 03rd, 2012 - 12:38 am - Link - Report abuse 0I suggest you DO allow Argentine tourists in. Let me explain how we handle them in Uruguay:
1. Argentina prospers. Argentines build mansions in Punta del Este.
2. Argentine economy goes tits up (every five to ten years as a rule) and/or Perón or CFK make it hard for Argentines to travel abroad Value of mansions plunges.
3. Uruguayans, Yanks, Europeans, Brazilians (and why not Falklanders) buy the mansions for half their original cost.
ISOLDE.
Apr 03rd, 2012 - 01:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Unfortunatellty i wasnt wrong when i expressed what i think about you in my last comment.
Anyway, firstly i want to tell you that what call recomendations, must we respected by everyone, i have always known that they are recomendations, but if we dont respect them, then what's the sense of the u. n?. the u. k. wants to use that argument, because the resolutions that were expressed for this cause dont benefit it, and because it's one of the members of the securiy councill with right to veto, no more.
On the other hand, this is evident that you forget that when arg., rejected resolution 502, we were under a dictatorship, nobody voted fascist galtieri, did you know that?, i know much more than about who were anaya, videla, suarez mason and those criminals fascists. It was obvious that fascist galtieri wasn't going to respect resolution 502, his government was so imbecill that he thought that u. s. a was going to support his war in the islands. You can use all that you want the argument of the war, it wont impide that we keep on claiming peacefully for the islands, but like i said before, dont complain if we have more problems in the future, you already know what i mean.
Finally, i know what you reffer respecting the removal of the population from the islands, there were very interesting articles here about it, but what you ignore is that during those years, we were also under a dictatorship, it was ongania's, so, did you know that we live in democracy since 1983?, how can you think that we want to remove your people?, anyway i dont think that you change just a little your mind, because that implicates that you should think just a little too, and with the closed mind that you have, i dont it's posible, it's lamentable, but it's the truth, you'll keep on buying all the distortions, lies and partial truthes that are published abut arg., just because you hate us.
@81 Axel,
Apr 03rd, 2012 - 09:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0l don't hate you, l despise you.
You have not listened to a blessed thing that l said.
Your country, Axel has NO RIGHTS here & we will NOT talk to you.
lnfact, this is the last time l will answer you.
From now on you will be ignored.
You're an ldiot, Axel.
