    no doubt scrote-throat will want her thinly veiled expansion campaign to be top of the agenda above food crisis, i wonder what she will accuse the UK of this time?

    Argentina has Accused UK of:

    deploying nuclear weapons on & near the Falklands
    hostile acts of vandalism at Falkland cemetery
    militarization of the South Atlantic
    killing civilians over olympic advert
    expelling Argentines from The Falklands
    treating Falkands as 'last refuge of declining empire'
    Sending ‘Uniform of the Conqueror’ as Prince William Heads to the Falklands
    Bullying over “dauntless” deployment
    using the Falklands as a distraction from economic woes
    acting ‘aggressively and provocatively’ by deploying Prince William
    controlling the south atlantic.
    not respecting the UN
    illegally occupying the islands
    wanting to attack argentinas territory.
    taking argentines resources

    All the above are Argentinas blatant lies,Propaganda and plain old populism by the corrupt decling peronist government of Argentina,
    any argentine or their followers wish to provide SOLID evidence to back up ALL the above accusations be my guest,otherwise it is what it is “Bullsh1t” and always will be.

    I find it hypocritical that as Argentina makes thoses claims, that they are the ones guilty of it all. They are:
    *Seeking to buy nuclear techology from the chineese
    *vandalizing the cemetary by politicizing it in a commercial
    *Militarizing the South Atlantic, they showed off (albiet a joke) their jet
    *Denying Bristish flagged vessels in port
    *Bullying by ambushing William Hague and publicly harrassing him
    *Creating nationalism to avoid the luming collapse
    *Not respecting the UN by using it as a podium
    They will continue to bang the drums until someone gives them a strong ass whipping. I sincerely believe that they have more false courage now that fat man chubby took over Mersosur. In fact they both need a serious ass kicking and be told to get in line in the world order or ceases to exist.
