    So the Falklands have a FIG and FOG, do they also have a Falkland Actor Guild? =)

    Unlike what would happen to us if I and my fellow Falkland Islanders were ever to come under Argentine rule, we have self determination in our own country - the Falkland Islands

    Thats certainly better initials =) And of course Sean Penn's real union is the Screen Actors Guild, not the Film Actors Guild =) Funnily enough Ronald Reagan was its president before he became a Republican!

    Where is the promised Argentine court action?

    After all Argentina claims everyone in the world are their buddies.

    @3 Unlike the original inhabitants of Argentina who were usurped and mostly exterminated by Argentine colonialism.

    Pot calling kettle black, again.

    @1 That'd be you.
    @6 Strange that. I thought it was the Hollywood Actor's Guild. Is it true that CFK is going to be the first member of the South American Guild (SAG)?

    @16
    All past, present and argentine presidents have the right to present a claim on the islands, is part of their job,
    but believe me, argies like me,
    have others things...to do!

    You can claim whatever you like.
    But if you do have other things to do, then why aren't you off doing them?

    @17 Hi Susana

    Hope you don't mind me asking you a few questions, with you being one of the biggest posters and personality's on this forum I would like to know more about you. Hope you don't mind.

    1. How old are you?

    2. How long have you lived in the USA?

    3. Are you in a relationship at the moment?

    4. Why do you care so much about the Falkland Islands?

    5. Do you hate the Falkland Islanders?

    Skip any questions you feel are intrusive..

    Thanks in advance.

    Feel free to ask me questions.

    Steve

    @3 The Falkland Islands and the waters around the islands have absolutely nothing to do with Argentina. Remember:

    'a state of perfect harmony has been restored'
    'two countries acknowledge that they no longer have ANY outstanding difference'

    The right to self determination under the UN charter.

    Argentina refusing the UK's offer to go to the Courts of International Justice to determine ownership of the Falklands (because they have no case).

    Hard cheese.
