In his speech to the UN Decolonization Committee MLA Mike Summers recalled that Article 1 of the UN Charter sets out the importance of respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of all peoples, which Argentina ignores and the Commission, which tries to be neutral, does not express this in its resolutions.

Jun 15th, 2012 - 05:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0I guess Summers have not a clue about what he is talking about.
Jun 15th, 2012 - 05:22 am - Link - Report abuse 01-“Likewise the UK established its first settlement in the Islands in 1766, a date which pre-dates the existence of Argentina.”
This argument is wrong because using the same logic the “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland” didn’t exist either until December 1921when was signed the last act of union with NI.
There is not such nation recognised as UK.
So is he is talking about settlements he has to go back to 1536 in Argentina history when was the first settlement.
2- “Finally MLA Summers invited the Argentine government to sit down and listen to the views of the people of the Falkland Islands, and enter into a dialogue, designed to find ways to co-operate in matters of mutual interest to the benefit of future generations of Falkland Islanders and Argentines.”
Another mistake to be accepted as a representative of a nation to establish diplomatic relationship with a nation like Argentina or any other nation, first the Islands has to gain the status of independent nation.
Until now the only valid interlocutor who claims rights over the Islands is UKoGBaNI so he has to address any exhortation for dialogue to motherland AKA UKoGBaNI.
So the only one to whom Mr. Summers can aspires to have talks and informally is with ordinaries Argies may be in this forum perhaps?
So here I go to show my good will toward you Mr. Summers...
Hello Mike,
About what would you like to talk?
I’m the representative of Dany Berger Govt. appointed by her majestic myself of course and I would like to accept your generous invitation for formal talks.
I’m concern about Fishery and Oil at the moment but I don’t have a boat or bump.
If you have one we can go to fish in partnership.
If the fish understand English is yours otherwise in mine.
If we cannot determine what language the fish talk we can go to ICJ to resolve the dispute.
Now let me think a bit about the oil please...

Your Arg Officers and NCOs KNEW their names - but REFUSED to tell the British.
THAT is why so many are unidentified.
Furthermore the British Govt confirmed to the Falklands Govt the other day that NO such request has been recieved from the Int red Cross or your Govt.

I watched the proceedings on the UN webcast, from partly through MLA Edwards to most of CKF and I must say how well Edwards and Summers performed. They gave a good account of themselves and the falklands and the way it is and in no way played with the truth.
Jun 15th, 2012 - 12:32 pm - Link - Report abuse 0CKF resorted to claiming that the Falklands were theirs because she saw birds flying in from that direction and they could not make such a journey from the uk. She said 'how awful' to celebrate the end of wars.. downgrading the efforts of the britain, america and its allies in ending WW2 or any war. 'Are we bad people'?' she asked... because many britons live in argentina .. bet they all keep quiet about the falklands.
There was an ex-falklander of argentine descent casting dirt on the islanders, saying he'd effectively been run out of town. This one-sided story proves just one thing... he left the falklands.
Finally CFK finishes her presentation to a thunderous applause... from the entourage of 90 hand picked chums.
Exciting times ahead....
Funny isn't it. The british are evil for celbrating the end of a war yet in Argentina they celebrate the start of an illegal war by a government they tell us they had absoutly nothing to do with by giving everyone a day of work, and as she stated yesterday How is this the fault of Argentine people
Jun 15th, 2012 - 12:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Because you stood by and let them take power and hold that power and obly choose to overthrow them after they had lost the war. If Argentine was truelly anti war it would of overthrown the government when the announced the invasion. They didnt because they beleieved in the invasion which is exacly why the Junta and Galaterri did it. If it isnt Argentines fault then it certainly isnt the Falklands islanders fault.
@46 Well... pretty much all the Argentines lined the streets and clapped when they found out the junta had started the war. When it comes to a sign of popular support that's pretty much the best one you can get.

interesting and very funny,
Argentines used the word 'celebration' for their festivities over the anniversary of the start of the Falklands War. I was in BsAs at the time and challenged some pro-government Argentines over the use of the word 'celebration', stating that it should be a commemoration. They were adamant that it should be a celebration as CFKC stated. So I asked them why they wanted to celebrate the start of a war they lost and would they go around shouting 'We are losers, we are losers' at their celebration. They went very quiet while that thought sunk in.

Jun 15th, 2012 - 03:21 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Unfortunatelly this is evident that neather summers, nor cameron, or some other integrant of the l. a from the islands realized about how hipocrite and rediculous they were going to seem before the public opinion when they accused argentina of colonialism, summers did the same in his statement. However at the same time, they want to continue under the protection of a colonial power which still has 10 of the 16 colonial enclaves.
Jun 15th, 2012 - 03:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0On the other hand, summers, like all the rest of the integrants from the l. a. distort once and again the resolutions from the u. n. It has never asked the u. k to return the islands to arg., beside, it neather invoked the right to self determination for this cause, like it did for ohers colonial situations, nor said that the sovereignty must be discussed only if the islanders wish it. Beside, summers omits that the malvinas-falkland cause has always been considered like a particular-colonial situation.
If the u. k never asked the u. k to return the islands to arg., it means that the islanders will be able to remain under british government as much as they want, and we won't be able to change that, beyond what our constitution says about our claim. But it doesn't mean that we can't find a fair solution for all the parts, however this is evident that it's something that neather summers, nor all the rest of the l. a from the islands want, thats' why they say they are dispossed to discuss about different issues with arg., but not the sovereignty. On the other hand, c. f. k was very clear yesterday when she said that we are not asking the u. k, to recognize that the islands are argentine, we just ask it to dialogue with us about this conflict, this phrase destroy planty of the stupid and hipocrite conclussions that some people in this forum, and the lawmakers from the islands give when they argue about the posture of argentina. Anyway i have always thought too that our government should dilaogue with the islanders.

@57 Axel. You don't seem to understand that KFC directly stated that she wanted the proposal to lead to Falklands integration with an alien power, Argentina. This is completely against the remit of the C24 and the UN Charter.

She was babbling on about how these 'Malvinas' were Argentine because of migrating birds. They've altered the constitution to reflect that they want full sovereignty of the islands, that much is clear. This leaves nothing to discuss, because they've already said what they want and they'll only settle for that.
These Argentines don't even care about what the Falklanders say, or even that they exist. They just keep repeating that it's 'our latin america' and these people are anglo-french, implying it's not their land.

So you're proposing that argieland will leave the people alone whilst taking their resources. You must think we're as stupid as you are. But now I'm going to give you a little personal tip. If you watch the way that I, and others, use the English language, you might learn something.

Do the Argentines now believe that migrating birds should be given control over countries ?
Ie, as swallows migrate from Africa to the UK, does this mean the Swallow's African country of origin holds sovereignity over the UK or is it the other way round? And if some Swallows stop over on the way, who owns the countries they stop over in???

We are not UNCOMFORTABLE but we will fight and win for what we believe is right which includes the British Soveriegn territory of the Falkland Islands.

Israel is a different matter, I don't like how Israel was created, because it is exactly what all of you accuse Argentina of doing (of displacing natives). But it is what it is now, and Israel is a legimimate nation and Argentina was one of the first to support it back then.

You people are really disturbed.
Most of the ethnic turmoil in the Middle East and Africa is because European nations invented nations that do not exist.

HOW LONG would you guys be at peace in such countries??
So now you claim to stand for these people's rights, when their suffering is partly your fault!
Insane.
so that would be like EUROPEAN SPAIN inventing rgenweener. Then rgenweener decides we'll kill all the indigenous people, thats ok, then decides we'll kill some of our own by throwing them into the south atlantic from a C130, then we''ll invade the Falkalnd Islands because they are only a few klicks from our coast and the Brits won't bother. You are wrong on so many issues. So we let all these countries go thier own way and they fooked it up so it's all Europeans fault FFS grow up.

Jun 15th, 2012 - 10:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Viveza Criolla
Viveza criolla is a Spanish language phrase literally meaning native cunning describing a way of life in Argentina, originating in Buenos Aires, in which to achieve success in life, anything goes: lies, taking advantage of the weaknesses of others, etc. Viveza criolla has been called the principal cause of a moral, cultural, economic, social and political crisis. It is a philosophy of progress along the line of least resistance and ignoring rules, a sense of responsibility and consideration for others, and it extends to all social groups and throughout the whole country, although it predominates in Buenos Aires. It is a similar concept to jeitinho brasileiro in Brazil.
Viveza criolla includes:
1. Lack of respect for others and indifference to the common good in a framework of individual interests.
2. Political corruption, which extends in all institutions, in the form of perks, direct appropriation of public funds, favoritism, misallocation of state resources, etc.
3. Extreme individualism, with mistrust of others and little ability to partner and cooperate in community goals.
4. Anomie or weakening of the common morality, and social deviance as behavior that departs from generally accepted standards in society.
5. The habit of blaming problems on someone else, thereby encouraging paranoia and granting a permit to self-indulgence.
I think you've got a major dose of 5. with a sprinkling of 3. at the moment.

What the Islanders want (to keep the status quo) will not be possible to keep in the time much longer.
So you have to get real and evaluate your better options while you can to negotiate a definitive long standing peaceful solution.
Or risk to have nothing in the future to negotiate and meanwhile deal with future Arg./ SA escalating measures like:
1-The ruining or the entire economy of the Islands. For example given free licences to fish indiscriminate.
2-By ruining entirely your little tourist industry.
3-By cutting air links to Rio Grande to Antarctica.
3-Pushing to put more restrictions on UK exports to MS that can be extended to the whole SA.

A similar situation to the Åland Islands and what was likelyto come about until the early 1970s. Unfortunately it has become clear that there is not an international agreement Argentine politicians won't abandon on a whim for short-term advantage and that their desire is not to administer the islands but to dominate them and humiliate their inhabitants. When- if- Argentine governments have shown that they can be trusted then such a situation may come about, but it looks like it'll be a very long wait.

This will imply you would have firepower able to destroy 15 times UK or the whole Western Europe.
Ah! I know you will start again with your Tomahawks Am I right?
Lets see a practical example Iraq:
240,000 Cluster bombs were dropped over Iraq + 20,000 guided and unguided bombs + 800 Tomahawks.
Operation on ground required 500.000 servicemen.
Poor close to none infrastructure there over a territory 7 times little than Argentina main land.
Now have you an idea how ridiculous you sound?
Not yet?
1 BGM109T= 5 conventional bombs power destruction.
But you are ruining out of BMGs since last years wasted on Libya operation.
“If this is correct, the Navy will have used up to 20 per cent of its 64 Tomahawks in the opening salvos of the war, leading to fears that it is burning through its armoury.
The situation could become an embarrassment for the Government if the submarine were the only vessel within range of a number of targets but could not fulfil the mission.”

If as a result KFC and her brownshirts are replaced with mature politicians who talk with the Falkland Islands on cooperative terms, and if they talk the right lingo (ie display proper diplomatic skills), then Southern Argentina's economy will thrive. Until then Southern Argentina remains a dump, rife with unemployment and the FI's deal with UK, and non-Argentine countries, and get richer at Argentina's expense.
Hypothetical: France takes over the Isle of Wight this month by force. Over the next 20, 30 or more years, the population, coming from France, becomes entirely French speraking with ties to France. The UK keeps pressing for the return of the island, but France regularly sends warships to protect their island (now names île du fromage). When the UK wants to negotiate with France over the island, France refuses and says talk to the French people on the island directly. So all you UK supporters in this comment section would agree that the UK should talk directly to the French people on the Isle of Wight and not with the government of France? And when France conducts a poll, 95% of the population wants to be allied with France, not the UK - is that poll relevant at all? You promise that in this hypothetical you would support negotiating directly with the French speaking population of the Isle of Wight, and you would drop all claims to the island should they vote to be with France (after all it's about their human rights). Not to mention the French people in forums mention that the UK economy sucks, so all the more reason that the UK should drop their silly demands for the return of the Isle of Wight. (and you agree with that point, as well as many other comments about the UK prime minister having had plastic surgery...)

You need to check reality.
Argentina's democracy is barely the timespan of a decent length mortgage in the Western world. It is not far enough away from the actions of the military junta and therefore still demonstrates what appears to be its innate resorting to aggression and force. Argentina's people did too little to oppose the military when they were in power and what was done by the military was done in their name whether or not they accept this. Argentina's behaviour is infantile in the World of democracy like a child throwing its toys out of the pram when it does not get what it wants. Mature democracies will not give in to this blackmail.

Despite many attacks on the UK by terrorists et al over the years, including the attempted assassination of the Prime Minister, the UK did not give in to terrorists and those using force to achieve their aims. We never give in and we never give up.
The Falkland Islands is an overseas territory of the UK, and this will remain so. Perhaps it is time to incorporate the Falklands into the United Kingdom itself (as an autonomous entity), and remove any doubt that Argentina may have as to our position, or that of our British Citizens in residence there.
One begins to experience serious fatigue listening to the 'macho-moaning' emanating from Queen Christina and Lapdog Timerman. It is only a matter of time before they fade into irrelevance with this broken record.
The wise thing to do (explains why they haven't done it!), would have been to woo the islanders ... but that would have required patience, something Argentina is short of, along with food, jobs, diplomacy, as well as foresight and hindsight.
Argentina is an aggressor. It knows no other way, and cannot demonstrate otherwise.

I never said that otherwise you were who say that.
The project is for myself to manufacture one for a new business project (company) that takes a lot of time.
The electronic and engineering part is fun and the easy part.
What takes so many time is the design of marketing strategies, software application to run business on/off line, market research and physical space where the business is going to operate (that I already own) all these kind of things that make part of your business plan you know?
2- “Give me a link of something YOU have done, not a link to somebody who has been working on it from before 2009 AND knows what he is doing. In other words PROVE your claim with PHYSICAL EVIDENCE.”
Simply I don’t see any need from me to provide you anything or to prove you anything what for?
Any qualify IT or Electronic engineer would figure out if I was talking bullshit as you say. You seems to have doubts. Ha ha
3- The other link was to prove you that this kind of tech (what you called nonsensical Technology) has commercial future. David Guetta (the guy with long hair in the video) that I guess you don’t know who is because you listen Elton John, immediately wanted one.
I will not tell you more about my future business ha ha.
