British Prime Minister David Cameron on Monday April 2 called Argentina's invasion of the Falkland Islands three decades ago a profound wrong aimed at depriving the Islanders of their freedom. Read full article
You don't seem to comprehend that other than a few of us that have a historical interest in the Falklands the rest of the Brtitish population have no real interest in the subject. If it weren't for Kirchner constantly banging on about the issue it would never be a topic in the British press or parliament.
The most you could say is that Kirchner is giving Cameron a golden opportunity - it is not of his making.
Think, you always forget that your own kind have killed by the score, both as past colonists and as RG's. Absolute FACT! So why do you constantly repeat the same old one sided fairy tales.
You must be the most boring person in these forums!
Restrained, Dignified .. unlike the Argentinians who, as we have yet again seen yesterday, know only propaganda, Molotov cocktails and Neanderthal violence.
Perhaps they would care to give the rest of the world a call when they decide to apply for membership of the human race.

I prefer Molotov cocktail than killing millions in foreign land.....Hardly,uk is an example of anything human...They are just beasts..
Oh yes, I forget that you would rather that Britain hadn't stood up to Nazi Germany. I forgot that you would rather have seen Argentina be part of a grand fascist alliance that thrived on the same barbaric ethnic cleansing that Argentina has feasted on since independence.
@Jorge,think and co. The events over here are very low - key, memorial services remembering our servicemen who paid the ultimate sacrifice to free the Falklands from your facist occupation.
Meanwhile in Argentina....the event is celebrated as a honourable and just war while CFK grandstands on the world stage. You then go the extra mile by having some riots near the British embassy.
Bearing in mind that the rule of the forum is that all posts must be in English, and that you can't even formulate a grammatically correct sentence in the English language, your right to question the eligibility of other posters is a very moot point.
@18 MurkyThink,
Who writes your script for you, mate?
You don't make a lot of sense.
Please try again, later, nitwit
@4Think,
With your murderous ancestry, Blunt Axe, you have the gall to accuse other people?
Still smarting over the Collateral Damage in Copenhagen?
What about the Collateral Damage you savages caused at York?
lf you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.
Hypocrite.
@18 Moving ones money around to make it work better is a fantastic idea that enables economic self-reliance and an ability to ease the burden on the state. It is a very liberating activity.
Unfortunatly in Argentina the gvt is limiting its own citizens the right to do what they wish with their own cash. Why should they stop such individual economic freedom if Argentina is really a stable and economically prosperous country? Is personal wealth soon going to be a state asset like peoples pensions have become?
Next they will be taking passports off people so they cannot spend any of their money outside of Argentina?
No, sorry, I think you had better give up. You still haven't managed to string a single sentence together in comprehensible English. Hardly surprising though, given the shocking state of the system of education in Argentina.
@2 Hi, sub-monkey. Were you saying something?
@4 Unlike argies and their clones who inflict genocide deliberately and directly.
@5 Chagos Archipelago has never had any natives. Unlike South America that did. How many have you left alive?
@10 Really? We prefer grenades. That way we only have to get the POWs to pick up pieces. Aren't we kind?
@13 Ceylon? Do you mean Sri Lanka?
@18 You poor sad wanker. Did you understand that?
Copenhagen? Trust me, @4Think isn't Danish - no Danes gives a monkey's about either of the Battles of Copenhagen and knows that 1500 years of alliances with the UK supersedes a few minor skirmishes. If @4Think claims to be Danish, then this half-Danish Norwegian is calling out the liar.
I wouldn't have been so restrained. I'd have said f*ck you, you cowardy hypocritcal pussies. Come back when you have learnt to fight. But maybe that's why I'm not PM. I've got a new campaign. Argies out of southern indiamerica! Get out you colonists! You have less right to southern indiamerica than we do the FIs. At least the FI were uninhabited when we discovered and settled them.
Summit of Americas meeting, 14-15 April in Cartagena. Why not email to the OAS members (www.oas.org/en/member_states/default.asp) and to the OAS permanent observers (www.oas.org/en/ser/dia/perm_observers/countries.asp) with message that might include quotes below and any other bits you want to add:
“Britain remains staunchly committed to upholding the right of the Falkland Islanders, and of the Falkland Islanders alone, to determine their own future. That was the fundamental principle that was at stake 30 years ago: and that is the principle which we solemnly re-affirm today.” DC
“We should remind the world that in the years since their liberation the Falkland islanders have repeated - without qualification or equivocation - their wish to keep their constitutional status, their national identity, and to live peacefully with their neighbours in Latin America,” WH
4 Think------ You kill me with your comments excuse the pun I can’t stop chuckling at what you wrote, you forget conveniently that your compatriots tried with great success along with most other Latin American countries to exterminate the indigenes' populations that were there long before you lot came along. Then if that was not enough you lot of murdering scum let in hundreds of Nazi murderers who had done there level best to exterminate Jews, Gypsy and anyone else who they could get their hands on and then you saw fit to chuck people alive from aircraft a fate I am sure that would have fallen to what you lot call Kelpers. Our crimes pale in comparison with your crimes, in fact I would go as far as to say we are Gods Angels that will sit next to him in the day of judgment and you lot of murdering scum will be cast into the fires of hell with a quick boot up the arse when you pass the ones that you have murdered as you pass them on the way down. Now there a good chap run along and stop being so tiresome to your British superiors who will always be your betters.
Yes David Cameron is quite right to remain restrained, respectful and staunchly on the side of right as opposed to whipping up an already hysterical crowd just to side track them away from the political and economic suicide that the CFK govenment is pursuing.
Well done PM Cameron but to be honest you haven't got much to beat.
Excitable, old Turkey Neck is making it easy for you.
Just make sure you have enough on the Islands to defeat any incursion and then have the guts to deliver a severe and punishing lesson to all Argentinians.
In circumstances of Argentine military aggression, collateral damage would be absolutely acceptable.
British government officials can not afford first class :-)))
The stand-off is understood to have been resolved when Clegg and his colleagues agreed to wait for their flight elsewhere in the terminal. To add insult to injury, however, when they finally boarded their flight, the Argentines were in First Class, while Clegg had to make do with the cheaper Business Class.
@31 Yes, because they're not oil sheiks or members of a corrupt despotic regime. As native first nations people starve, your ruling party are taking every luxury they can.
You've got to give Nick Clegg the points for this one. The only issue is, WTF were they doing getting on a flight with Argentinians anyways?? Didn't Emirates feel like telling them?
@ 2 idiota, en el reino unido a nadie le importaban las islas, ahora sí, y todo gracias al quilombo que ustedes los malvinistas están haciendo. Los que comenzaron con esto son ustedes los malvinistas, no David Cameron.
@ 31 give peace a change, let's burn a flag. You are doing it, Marcos.
“Thirty years ago today the people of the Falkland Islands suffered an act of aggression that sought to rob them of their freedom and their way of life,” Cameron said. and thirty years have passed, and still Argentina is in the stone age.
I can see that my comment No. (4) written to my fellow South-American Mr. Ynsere has incited some turnipy answers………..
The term ”Colateral Damage” is, as most of us know, a quite novel Anglo idiom……….
That makes it evident that I was not referring to events that occurred some 1,500 years ago….. or 500 years ago…….or 50 years ago……
I was referring to the “Colateral Damage” that valiant Anglo troops are inflicting TODAY, as we speak……, that means ……………….… just now.
“Colateraldamaging” every day elderly people, women and children……
Many of those valiant Anglo troops learn how to “Colateral Damage” in Malvinas.
Yes………. valiant Anglo Bride and Baby killers trai TODAY in Malvinas in the noble art of “Colateraldamaging” with the full acceptance and complicity of the British civilian squatters on them Islands………
How very Restrained….. Dignified…..Suitable ……..
How very Brutish……………..
@34 The words of a bitter man, desperate to distract people from the topic of the article which shows his people to be effectively no better than nazi germans.
It is a shame you have so little respect for UN mandated missions ... but then Argentina's respect for anything UN related, like Security Council resolutions, is very sporadic, isn't it?
How about the collateral damage caused by your own government to the Argentinian women and children who are starving to death as we speak whilst your fascist egotist of a President grows rich at your expense?
36 Skare
I wouldn't bother with that supercilious little coward.
If you are attacked you have the right of self defence.
Argentine Facists don't like it, just like they don't like the Falkland Islanders right of self determination.
I cannot even be bothered to respond to these tiresome Le Camping Argtards, I find them incredibly soporific. What I will say is that I'm glad I don't have to engage with Argentinians so much in real life, or I'd probably spend most of my time asleep.
40
Say and think what you like, Argentina is a free Country or so they say.
Fact is Falklands are staying British and there ain't a thing you can do about it apart from moan and bitch. Argentine moaning and bitching is becoming quite entertaining. Keep it up but try doing more collateral damage to those Argentine Policemen guarding our Embassy.
34 Think—No we knew what you meant but in the grander scheme of things in this world, the sins of your fathers are far greater than anything that is being done now. Tell everyone if you don't mind do you try to act stupid or does it come natural. There are not many countries’ that took in mass murderers en mass after the Second World War BUT all of them were in Latin American country's especially you murderous scum the Argentinian’s. There is a reason that you lot are at the bottom of the World with just three thousand Angels watching your every move and it’s because the rest of the world does not want you anywhere near civilized human beings. Now again run along there now scum and lick the arse of Turkey neck the daughter of another piece of Scum, and always remember that you are at the bottom of the shit heap where you belong with no chance to rise any further. You know we British are a superior race of people that will never let you rise out of your shit so it makes sense to just do as your told doesn't it?
@27 Stefan(#)
Sir, Cameron appears restrained but the fact is that he is trembling seeking a remedy to control the UK financial crisis obtaining revenue from meat pies. If the economy does not improve he might be replaced like the sudamerican female leader.
The female cavity structures disclosed publicly by the UK was the one discribed by the britons as Camilla's tampax size.
45 how would a south american female leader, help in a financial crisis? (Argentina's leader is doing a piss poor job running/ruining her own country) :)
@44 You know we British are a superior race of people

How many decades since the superior race mythology became a sensation in Europe? And yet it seems you can't help but feel a sense of doubt in that, in spite the fact you believe this with all your heart (since a flag and/or a family tree is the perfect soother for failed personal accomplisment), because Euroepans have to constantly repeat it to the rest of the world.

@Skåre,
señor Think says that he is a first generation Argentine with Danish & Swedish ancestry(parents?)
Although he is a born liar & hates us with a passion, l believe him to be Danish or at least Danish Argentine.
l have visited Denmark & never found anyone like him.
The older people were all very pro-British, remembering WWII.
Think delights in calling us brutish instead of British & he wants to remove us all from the Falklands & replace us with Argentines.
He keeps/kept bringing up the evils of the old British Empire just to prove how murderous he thinks we are.
ln defence l pointed out how murderous his Viking ancestors were.
Everyone was in those days.
One of his pet stories was the British bombardment of Copenhagen in the Napoleonic wars.
So to counter his propaganda l've been reminding him of the Danish invasions of England in the 9th,10th & 11th centuries.
Although l wouldn't admit it to him, England actually benefited from those invasions.
lt improved our genetic pool.(by rape & marriage!)
Many Danes settled in England also.
To the Saxons, the word Danes covered all Scandinavians.
Just to explain to you, Skåre about my remarks about Copenhagen.
Peace
@47 To be fair Borges would have referred to modern Argentinians as oppressed servile cruel idiots. He would have also noted the following:
Bellboys babbling orders - Timmerman
portraits of caudillos - Massive pictures of Nestor and KFC
prearranged cheers or insults - malvinas argentinas!
walls covered with names - La Campora graffiti of YPF is Argentine
unanimous ceremonies - Ushuaia statement of malvinas-demands
mere discipline usurping the place of clear thinking - La Campora
The fact is, Jorge Borges would be upset with the modern dictatorial Argentina. So yes, I think I'm better than those folks.
Well, I still don't believe him. As you say, any visit to Denmark will show you that the population is almost 100% pro-British, just as we are in Noway. We share the same gratitude to our British cousins for their sacrifices on our behalf.
Denmark made the UK's entry to the EU a precondition of their own entry and on UN and NATO missions around the world, Danish troops always serve under British command ... right down to having their own little Camp Viking within Britain's Camp Bastion in Helmand province.
Danes are immensely proud of the fact that the Jutes and Angles were Danish peoples, that they gave the English their language and have been an integral part of British society for 1800 years.
Of course there has been the occasional family squabble; but far from making them enemies, it brings them closer together.
@56
They would do well to take a lesson from how the Danes behaved under occupation of the nazis. With dignity and courage that was an example to the whole world. A braver or more noble people never existed.
@57 and they make really good hot-dogs. Some even have cheese in the sausage and are really delicious while you're cycling around the danish countryside.
... plus, as you have already alluded to, we really can't ignore the fact that Norway and much of Sweden were actually under Danish rule for much of the last 2000 years, there is the minor detail of Denmark and the Danish kings actually having a far longer and far more savage history of colonialism than any of their neighbours, including the UK .. and that as far as overseas dependent territories goes, no country has a greater dependent overseas territories than Denmark still does today (not only that, but those territories are less independent than the Falklands are today, but despite actually having a pre-colonisation indigenous population have been removed from the United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories because they don't have deranged neighbours like Argentina objecting to that removal on totally manufactured grounds) .
@60 reality check,
l liked Tuborg.
And the kaffe
AND Danish pastries, YUM.
@Skåre,
Thank you.
l've been to Norge.
Tell me, are the Norwegian men still the spunkiest in Europe? lol lol lol
Never forget and never forgive. we had good weapons then and we have even better weapons now. And our troops are battle hardened from conflicts through out the world
(52) Cher lsolde
1) Señor ”Think” is indeed a first generation Argentinean with Swedish ancestry (Min søte farmor Hervor….http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hervor )
But, he NEVER said he was Danish………………. You just assumed that.
2) Señor ”Think” reserves the “BRUTISH” denomination to all those UK citizens and subjects of the Queen that, on these pages, share with us their wet dreams about Argentina’s obliteration by the hand of Her Majesty’s Gallant Armed Forces.
All other UK subdits, he calls British………….
(56) Kjære liten Skåre
1) Señor Think is Argentinean. His allegiance lies with Argentina, especially when Argentina is right...... As in the Malvinas Issue.
Then………………..…............................. he is Scandinavian.
2) Scandinavians (Herunder slekten min) are immensely proud of the fact that we have smashed Englishmen skulls by the millions , raped all of their pretty, fluffy sheep and cannibalized their fatty, flowery-polyester dressed women for the best part of the last 1,300 years……. not 1,800 years as you wrongly write.
(57) Reality check
You are a history Turnip……………….:
The Danes collaborated “big time” with the German occupation troops until 1944.
They collaborated so effectively that Montgomery considered Denmark “Enemy Territory” just after the end of the WWII….
The only honorable exception was the little but effective resistance movement organized and run by the Danish Communist Party.
Norway……………………..................…. A totally different story.
You are a Beer Turnip too……………….:
Danish Carlsberg and Tuborg lagers are mostly Chemical Industrial Products, spawned on the base of maize and rice…..
Bwadrrrrrrrrr…….
Even a lukewarm English Ale tastes better than that!
A Dane (but not a Dane because it is illegal to be a dual-national Dane) who uses Google Translate (because he doesn't speak a word of Danish) and miraculously ends up writing in Swedish? Yeah, whatever - about as credible as a paedophile pleading innocence when caught in a playground - I stand by my previous assertion that you are full of shit.
And then you suddenly start writing in a strange Google hybrid of Norwegian :)
And actually it is 1800 years you cretin. The Angles and Jutes started arriving in Britain 500 years before the Vikings and were already rulers of most of England long before the Vikings came. But hey, thanks for showing yourself up as being a totally clueless and pig-ignorant dipshit.
Where do you think the name England comes from? Angle Land / Land of the Angles. Hence the French name for England = Angleterre (land of the Angles .. not land of the Vikings)
Synes du virkeligt at det ikke er noget skandinavisk i mig?
Åbenbart, endnu en af dine fejltagelser, fejlbedømmelser og fejlvurderinger min kære, søde norske ven.
Jeg vælger at skrive dette her på dansk men kunne lige så godt have skrevet det på svensk, norsk eller færørsk.
Undlad venligst i fremtiden at bruge så mange fornærmelser, skældsord og kraftudtryk når du taler med en landsmand………….. Det er temmelig uskandinavisk.
Som en halvdansker svarer jeg så på dansk og siger at jeg helt bestemt ikke er din ven - og ja, jeg tror du er en forfærdelig løgner, som ikke er særlig god med Google Translate.
Hvis du virkelig ønsker at give undervisning i at være skandinavisk, så kan du selv begynde med ikke at være sådan et forbandet racistiskt svin.
Vær nu en gentleman og gå ad helvede til med dit vrøvl.
Jeg har heller ikke lyst til at bruge et eneste minut mere af min værdifulde tid på en norsk/dansk knoldesparker som åbenbart ikke har en anelse om noget som helst omkring Argentina og/eller Malvinas.
Sorry, I was just satisfying myself that he was indeed the fraud that I thought him to be .. but he now claims to be Swedish and since they were renown Nazi sympathisers throughout WWII, his views are not so surprising and are entirely compatible with Argentine fascism :)
Normans, Vikings, Celts, Romans, they have all been,
But as like the Borg would say,
résistance is futile, we will assimilate you .
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
As per think,
Is it possible to have an argentine Swede with a sprinkling of Spanish inquisition?
With an Italian mafiola, added to a European flavour.
Or would an inherited touch of gothic vandals
With Germanic overtones are too much.
Justa nice joka mr think .
Now that Think has suddenly changed his allegiance to Sweden, he introduces a rather delightful hypocrisy; because there was actually an Anglo-Swedish alliance in place when the British fire-bombed Copenhagen .. and in fact the attack was coordinated with Sweden keep access to the Baltic open so that the British navy could help to protect Sweden and Russia from the French (who had ordered Denmark to go to war against England and Sweden).
There is also the inconvenience of a little thing called the Swedish Empire, which as well as Finland, Norway, most of the Baltic states and parts of what is now Russia and Germany, also included colonies in Africa and America. I am sure he wont be to forward about that :p
@86 Skåre,
l originally accused Think of being Swedish, but he denied that.
Then l found that he was using the Danish version of google so l thought, well maybe he is Danish.
l was a little bit perturbed by this because l had always liked the Danish people.
Only a few days ago, l mentioned that l knew a Finnish man & Think didn't seem to think much of him.
l remember that the Finn had told me that they're not liked very much in Sweden, so l began to think that maybe he was afterall, Swedish.
Pity since l've met some nice Swedes too.
lt doesn't really matter.
To me, he is a malvinista.
The lowest form of life.
And yes, l've classified him as a swede(vegetable)!!
Think obviously can't read his own posts and easily forgets that he, whilst posting his 'dåsedansk' (dåsedansk translates as 'canned Danish' and refers to an embarrassingly unsuccessful machine translation from a foreign language into Danish) referred to this Norwegian as a landsmand - a fellow countryman (in the sense of being a fellow Scandinavian). A rather strange thing to do if you aren't claiming to be Scandinavian :)
Once again the unthinking dimwit attempts to deny his own lies .. and I have already refereed to the evidence:
Undlad venligst i fremtiden at bruge så mange fornærmelser, skældsord og kraftudtryk når du taler med en landsmand………….. Det er temmelig uskandinavisk.
.. which translates as:
In the future, please avoid using so many insults, epithets and expletives when speaking with a fellow countryman .............. it is rather un-Scandinavian [sic]
Unless you are suggesting that I am one of those lobotomised Argentine scumbags, your meaning is very clear and your attempts to deny it make you look really very stupid indeed.
@93 Skåre,
Doesn't really matter what nationality Think is or is not.
Although he did claim to have a Swedish grandma.
To us he's a malvinista.☺☺☺☺, *snigger*
So glad that you came along.
You unmasked him.
He has hidden in the shadows for too long.
Now we see Think for the hypocrite that he really is.
Moving on.
What an anti-climax it was for April 2nd.
l thought that the unmentionables would attempt SOMETHING!
Almost disappointed! lol.
@92 Think,
One thing for sure,
You're NOT humble.
AND, they are NOT your malvinas,
They are OUR Falklands.♥
And you are welcome to your islands .. if we can have the Outer Hebrides, Shetland and Orkney back. Hell, I imagine that most Brits would find it easier to point to the Falklands on a map that they would correctly identify any of the three places I mentioned, so you can't be all that attached to them ;)
You say at post (77)……….; I quote:
”……..but he now claims to be Swedish”
And then again at post (86)………; I quote:
”…..Now that Think has suddenly changed his allegiance to Sweden…”
Where did i ever ”claimed to be Swedish?”
Where did I ever ”changed my allegiance to Sweden?”
Where did I ever use the Swedish language? I kept to Danish and a bit of Norwegian!
And yes….., believe it or not, like it or not, accept it or not, you and me are ”Landsmænd”
Scandinavian Landsmænd !
Adjö min lilla vän.......
PS:
Cher Isolde…..
More claims from the United Scandinavian front!
Give us our Outer Hebrides, Shetland, Orkney and Malvinas back!
Think, thou dost(doth?) protesteth too much.
As for the Shetlands etc etc, you'll have to take that up with the Scots.
Knowing our northern neighbours, l can imagine the answer that you'll get. lol
l seem to remember that they were the dowery of a Norwegian Princess who married a Scottish King.
Why don't you Swedes put in a claim for Russia too?
The land of the Rus, (a Swedish tribe?)
Sorry, Thinkus, the Falklands were unknown to the early Scandinavians although l have been told by Falklanders that some of their ancestors were Norwegian Whalers.
Are you lightening up now, Think? heh.
I knew I shouldn’t have mentioned my cute green eyes.
Your infatuation with me is now dangerously out of control.
Told you before.... You are too good for me.... Try to forget me.…
Trust me, we are not Scandinavian Landsmænd. You are an Argentinian and I am a Norwegian .. and given that I don't even feel any kinship with genuine swedes (even though I live way up in Nordland and less than 50km from Sweden) I am certainly not going to enter into a bond that is based on a repellent and outmoded sense of 'skandinavisk' nationalism.
In any case, I thought you claimed that I was as Norwegian as you are British (i.e. 0,00%).
Correct......; I'm NOT an “Authentic Norwegian Turnip”.
I'm an 110% Argentinean with 100% Scandinavian genes and three diferent (3) citizenships. (Not counting my Ghanaian one; an old spoof from the sixties………)
Nothing stange or unusual in this wonderful Country of Argentina………
109 SussieUS---- What gave you the impression the UK and we British don't like Argentina? It couldn't be that we don't trust them because they are out and out liars could it? Or that given half a chance the thieving lying bastards would once more invade the Falkland's and we would once more have to kick their thieving lying scum like arses of the islands and once more have the loss of British lives, it couldn't be for that reason that we hate the bastards could it?
I am sure that you will give each one of us your enlightened thoughts on this matter, as lsolde as eloquently put it your mouth is big enough.
JohnN.
Of course its theirs, everyone knows that. They inherited from the spanish, which. if history serves me right? was given to them by papal edict. Argentine logic. Simples!

The invasion on the disputed island was a mistake. Can you forgive and move on?
I am waiting to hear from Cameron as the UK approach to commemorate th Iraq invasion on April 13, 2003 that have taken more inocent lives than the islands invasion.
What words you expect to hear from him?
I don't Think” we can expect any big celebration from PM Cameron on the glorious” April 13.
It's only nine (9) years ago..........
British military protocol dictates that the big commemorations are hold on the 10th, 25th and 50th anniversary of their splendid martial escapades.
We will have to wait to next year, I'm afraid.....
Respetuosamente
El Think, Chubut, Argentina
PS:
Thinking about the above....., I wonder why the Brits disregard their own military protocol and make such a big fuss commemorating the 30th anniversary of the Malvinas campaign?
109 Sussie (how on earth do you pronounce that?)
I'm afraid it's not so much that Brits, Islanders, Uruguayans, Chileans, Paraguayans and Brazilians dislike Argentina as that Argentina has made itself disliked by all the above on account of aggression and attempted bullying. The process started many years ago, but seems to have taken on momentum as of the second half of the 20th Century.
This is meant as an objective observation, not a personal insult. So please don't call me Malvinista, Argentine, Brit or Falklander because I'm none of the above. I'm Uruguayan.
You are pretty right about your analysis of why Argentina was/still is somehow disliked in South-America.
We Argentineans know it perfectly and that’s why, among many other reasons, we took a calculated risk in 1983 and started a deep process of demilitarization.
An ongoing process, to recreate confidence among our neighbors.
Argentina has today zero (0) chances to “Bully” anybody……….
As a matter of fact, most of the other South-American countries could “Bully” us if they so wished.
So, please, try for a minute to ”Think out of your Yoruga box” and make an effort to perspectivize the many concrete steps that have been taken for peace and integration in our area during the last 30 years.
114 SussieUS----- I don't expect one word from him to explain why we helped the Americans to invade Iraq. Unlike Argentina invading the Falkland's who would have colonized the Islands if we would have let them, both We British along with Americans and a few other free countries invaded Iraq to free its people from quite a nasty tyrant who had exploited Iraq for decades, a little bit if you like what Argentina's tyrants have been doing over the last 100 years or so. And unlike Argentina who would have stayed on the Falkland's both we British and the Americans have left Iraq.
Perhaps we British should invade Argentina to free its people from its tyranny and put that country on a more stable foothold. After all, it seems you are incapable of governing yourselves properly if the last 100 odd years are anything to go by.
However, I don't expect for one moment in time that you and the rest of the rabble that can’t elect a proper government to govern in your name to fully understand how it all works after all most of you are a sandwich short of a picnic.
Oh and as for you asking if we could forgive and move on, well we would if would be allowed to but idiots in your country and in your Governments won’t let the matter drop they insist that the Falkland's somehow belong to Argentina when we have proved time and time again that France, Spain, have more claim on the islands than you lot. And take it from me someone who had to sail down to that part of the world 30 years ago, we don't trust you we don't like you and we won’t be caught off guard the next time you decide to invade and invade you will when you get the chance be it ten years from now or fifty years from now.
120 - Dear Think
I wish I could believe you! But only two or three years ago, when NK's environmentalist hirelings were blockading the FrayBentos-Gualeguaychú international bridge, the Argentine army happened to organise maneuvers for the amphibious crossing of a river ... Uruguayan president Vázquez saw fit to ask the US for military help if necessary.
So you see, my friend: apparently Argentina does not have the wherewithal to take on the Brits or even cross several hundred miles of ocean waters, but Argentinian forces could easily cross the River Uruguay and invade us. The tiny Uruguayan armed forces (many members of which are on peacekeeping missions in Haiti, the Congo and Sinai) would be unable to resist for more than a day or two. The Commanding Officer of the Uruguayan army has publicly stated that Uruguay would have to resort to guerilla warfare, partly modelled on British plans for the event of a German invasion during WW2.
Lucky Falklanders! Wish Uruguay had British protection.
Chile has nearly come to blows with Argentine on several occasions. Paraguay has actually had territory stolen by Argentina. The Brazilians consider Argentina a joke.

Bush lied to all invading Iraq on April 13, 2003 stating that Hussein had WMD. He killed more people in 9 years of war for nothing. He killed more inocent people than Sadam Hussien. Because of the Iraq invasion the US is financially broke!
Because of Bush expending on such invasion, the food stamps US President Obama annuounced on July 31, 2011 that the federal reserve had only 68 billons not enough to pay the US debts, the military and the US retirees and warned that their retirement checks won't be ready for them to collect on August 3, 2011. Congress approved 3 trillon from foreign countries to keep the US afloat until this fiscal year of July 2012. Because of the Iraq invasion the US has 24 millons unemployed, 44 millons on food stamps, 26 millons living below under poverty level and there is no light at the end of tunnel. This year the US might default from its obbligation to pay the foreing debt. State like Arizona, Nevada and California had to sell their building to obtain cash. Libraries hours are reduced. Public transportation is reduced. The State of Nevada face a 24 millons dollars reduction for education. This means hundred of teacher will face unemployment. Shelters are crowed with the unemployed people that have lost their jobs and homes. Personal bunkruptcy and home foreclosure continues.
And you dare to say that the UK help the US to invade Iraq because Hussein killed some of his oponents? Face the facts.
It does not make any sense to invade a country without having in consideration the financial cost that each US citizen and future generations will have to pay. The 15 trillon foreign debt is the largest in history.

The US won't send me no where. I travel when I feel like it.
I am a citizen of these two countries. I have dual nationalities and I owe alliance to the US and Argentina. These are the best countries in the world.
I support Argentina claim on these islands and support the US demanding negotiations on this disputed issue.
Starvation in Argentina does not exist.
I saw starvation in Bangladesh and in the Phillippines, but never in my country.
The islanders soon will find their wallets empty paying the high cost of shipping their daily neccesities from Chile or Uruguay.
@125 SussieUS,
l'd rather starve to death than allow lying, posturing Argentines to rule me or my country.
So you believe that the US & Argentina are the best countries in the world? ha ha ha

Denmark made the UK's entry to the EU a precondition of their own entry and on UN and NATO missions around the world, Danish troops always serve under British command ... right down to having their own little Camp Viking within Britain's Camp Bastion in Helmand province.
Danes are immensely proud of the fact that the Jutes and Angles were Danish peoples, that they gave the English their language and have been an integral part of British society for 1800 years.

You are a history Turnip……………….:
The Danes collaborated “big time” with the German occupation troops until 1944.
They collaborated so effectively that Montgomery considered Denmark “Enemy Territory” just after the end of the WWII….
The only honorable exception was the little but effective resistance movement organized and run by the Danish Communist Party.
Norway……………………..................…. A totally different story.

We Argentineans know it perfectly and that’s why, among many other reasons, we took a calculated risk in 1983 and started a deep process of demilitarization.
An ongoing process, to recreate confidence among our neighbors.
Argentina has today zero (0) chances to “Bully” anybody……….
As a matter of fact, most of the other South-American countries could “Bully” us if they so wished.

If Pepe can so can you.
114 SussieUS----- I don't expect one word from him to explain why we helped the Americans to invade Iraq. Unlike Argentina invading the Falkland's who would have colonized the Islands if we would have let them, both We British along with Americans and a few other free countries invaded Iraq to free its people from quite a nasty tyrant who had exploited Iraq for decades, a little bit if you like what Argentina's tyrants have been doing over the last 100 years or so. And unlike Argentina who would have stayed on the Falkland's both we British and the Americans have left Iraq.
Apr 06th, 2012 - 09:44 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Perhaps we British should invade Argentina to free its people from its tyranny and put that country on a more stable foothold. After all, it seems you are incapable of governing yourselves properly if the last 100 odd years are anything to go by.
However, I don't expect for one moment in time that you and the rest of the rabble that can’t elect a proper government to govern in your name to fully understand how it all works after all most of you are a sandwich short of a picnic.
Oh and as for you asking if we could forgive and move on, well we would if would be allowed to but idiots in your country and in your Governments won’t let the matter drop they insist that the Falkland's somehow belong to Argentina when we have proved time and time again that France, Spain, have more claim on the islands than you lot. And take it from me someone who had to sail down to that part of the world 30 years ago, we don't trust you we don't like you and we won’t be caught off guard the next time you decide to invade and invade you will when you get the chance be it ten years from now or fifty years from now.

Apr 06th, 2012 - 10:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I wish I could believe you! But only two or three years ago, when NK's environmentalist hirelings were blockading the FrayBentos-Gualeguaychú international bridge, the Argentine army happened to organise maneuvers for the amphibious crossing of a river ... Uruguayan president Vázquez saw fit to ask the US for military help if necessary.
So you see, my friend: apparently Argentina does not have the wherewithal to take on the Brits or even cross several hundred miles of ocean waters, but Argentinian forces could easily cross the River Uruguay and invade us. The tiny Uruguayan armed forces (many members of which are on peacekeeping missions in Haiti, the Congo and Sinai) would be unable to resist for more than a day or two. The Commanding Officer of the Uruguayan army has publicly stated that Uruguay would have to resort to guerilla warfare, partly modelled on British plans for the event of a German invasion during WW2.
Lucky Falklanders! Wish Uruguay had British protection.
Chile has nearly come to blows with Argentine on several occasions. Paraguay has actually had territory stolen by Argentina. The Brazilians consider Argentina a joke.
It will take several generations for Argentina to gain a good reputation with its neighbours, but I do hope it happens.

Because of Bush expending on such invasion, the food stamps US President Obama annuounced on July 31, 2011 that the federal reserve had only 68 billons not enough to pay the US debts, the military and the US retirees and warned that their retirement checks won't be ready for them to collect on August 3, 2011. Congress approved 3 trillon from foreign countries to keep the US afloat until this fiscal year of July 2012. Because of the Iraq invasion the US has 24 millons unemployed, 44 millons on food stamps, 26 millons living below under poverty level and there is no light at the end of tunnel. This year the US might default from its obbligation to pay the foreing debt. State like Arizona, Nevada and California had to sell their building to obtain cash. Libraries hours are reduced. Public transportation is reduced. The State of Nevada face a 24 millons dollars reduction for education. This means hundred of teacher will face unemployment. Shelters are crowed with the unemployed people that have lost their jobs and homes. Personal bunkruptcy and home foreclosure continues.
And you dare to say that the UK help the US to invade Iraq because Hussein killed some of his oponents? Face the facts.
It does not make any sense to invade a country without having in consideration the financial cost that each US citizen and future generations will have to pay. The 15 trillon foreign debt is the largest in history.
