Of course you get an overwhelming result if you are they only one in the race.
Oct 18th, 2012 - 11:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0But I suppose it might distract a few citizens for a while.
Meanwhile, instead of representing the whole of South America, Argentina kicks off with a tirade about something that has nothing to do with the people they're meant to be representing.
I find it funny that they mention that they want to bring about the end of colonialism. Does this mean that they've decided to stop trying to colonise the Falklands?

Oct 18th, 2012 - 11:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Thanks for changing my mind.
When you said “represent the whole of South America”, you made me think. Represent for what purpose? with what goal? With which tools?
What do the non-permanent members do? Exactly.
So, might as well make a mockery of it. I hope Argentina does, becaue the UN SecCo deserves no respect.
we hope the rest of them carry headache pills.

I agree the UN can be seen as pointless on many levels but it keeps countries talking and working together, for that purpose alone it is worth supporting.
Oct 19th, 2012 - 08:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0As for blaming the UN for the world's ills, it is like saying, 'Whenever there is a crime scene the police are always there' and implying the police are responsible. The UN act in a policing role.
In that respect they should be representative but as Argentina has just proved, some countries are not mature enough to look beyond their own borders. Their opening me, me, me stance will have set the tone for them to be tolerated and ignored.

Let's see what the UNSC have on their plate at the moment.
1. We have Syria in the middle of a brutal and bloody civil war.
2. We have Syria bombing Turkey, and Turkey retaliating, which is threatening to spiral out of control, and could pull other NATO countries in.
3. We have North Korea threatening to bomb South Korea.
4. We have Iran trying to acquire or build a nuclear weapon, and Israel threatening a pre-emptive strike against them if the do.
5. We have India and Pakistan (both nuclear powers) fighting over Kashmir which is always threatening to spiral out of control.
6. We have the problem of Somali pirates attacking international shipping and kidnapping people.
7. We have North and South Sudan fighting over oil.
8. And we have Argentina complaining about a sovereignty issue.
I wonder which one of these are not the responsibility of the UNSC but are in fact the responsibility of the International Court of Justice?
Send the answer to Timidman, c/o UN building in NYC.
It's time for Argentina to take a good look beyond its borders and realise what the UNSC are here to do. They have far bigger fish to fry, and are completely not interested in something that is not under their jurisdiction.

Oct 19th, 2012 - 12:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@17 Argieland has temporarily “joined” the Security Council for a number of reasons. It was the only place stupid enough to want to display its idiocy on a more regular basis. Other Caribbean/South American countries have better things to do. It has been accepted on a similar basis to that used to give the cesspit a “temporary” seat in the G20. Argieland is in the G20 so that real countries could get an idea of what poor places “think”. Even if they have no equipment for the purpose of “thinking”.
@21 It's only so that a place that everyone thinks of a prat cesspit can PROVE it's a prat cesspit! I trust that that faggotland understands that it can't get involved in discussions about matters where it is “involved”. No mention of the Falklands, British “militarisation” of the South Atlantic, South Georgia, South Sandwich Islands, British Antarctic Territory. All off-limits. So make sure you keep your dozy mouth SHUT!

Oct 19th, 2012 - 01:28 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I disagree, these are not the 2 biggest issues facing the UNSC.
The 1st one falls under the Security Council, but the second, i.e. the economy, is for the general assembly.
Israel and Palestine are being encouraged to talk and find a solution, but most of the other situations listed are potential wars that could flare up at any moment and spread killing thousands.
Only in the past 24hrs North Korea has threatened to target a tourist area (not a legitimate military target) in South Korea.
If they did that, then South Korea would respond by attacking legitimate targets in North Korea. The situation could spiral quickly out of control.
These types of incidents are the most important issues for the security council to address. Argentina's attempt to abuse their position on the security council by bringing up a subject that is totally inappropriate for that forum (unless they are planning on starting a war over the Falklands), is pathetic, self-centered, and they should be slapped down if they try it again.
Argentina, take your case to the ICJ or STFU.
#37....I don't think that is the UN's two big concerns in at all....the first most definitely, the second is free market shifts that's been happening in the USA for years, get use to it.

Is there anyone in this room who does not speak with such contempt for my country? Personally I'm not proud of my representatives, but beyond that, I'm very proud of my country, Argentina. Here live many honest and good people. And you, whoever you are, have no authority to “cast the first stone”. And I clarify (in case anyone has any doubt), I'm an Argentine citizen who believes strongly that the Falklands belong to their inhabitants.

Argentina is a young nation, with plenty of time to keep making mistakes. Governments are temporary, people always stays.
Fortunately, I have met many friends from the UK, and also people of the Falklands, who are wonderful people. And that was enough for me to don't make the same mistake that YOU're doing... generalize.

What l meant to say, oh pedantic one, is that l have read a book, called the Voynich Manuscript written by G.Kennedy & R.Churchill.
lt is all about the V.M.
No-one can actually read the manuscript yet. That is the whole point.
lt seems either to be in an unknown language, or a code that no-one has been able to break. Or it is complete nonsense. We don't know.
Now there's a nice little project for your active brain Cher Think.
l should think that a well versed, well travelled, experienced man of the world such as yourself would have very little trouble in deciphering the V.M.♥
Please share the results with me, when you've finally cracked it.

I guess one indian to another for the PR's .....show me the votes that they wanted other than the USA Navy out and wanted to be a nation? The vote is 11/6/12...and the votes are about pro statehood, which no American wants as well as the PR's. The vast majority of PR's want the “status quo” as is.

But what the heck, let them vote until they vote “right”, right?
What else to expect from your twisted edition of democracy...
At 10.00 hrs Monday Timmidman is going to start his historical (or hysterical – depending on your point of view) diatribe to the UNSC regarding the Malvinas (wherever they are) and the despicable Ghanaians who have conspired with the ‘vulture funds located in British Territory' and threatened the lives of the sailors and cadets.
Oct 21st, 2012 - 03:56 pm - Link - Report abuse 0At 10.02 the Chairman of the UNSC will stop Timmidman and remind him that he must base his claims on the truth otherwise their will be a motion of censure against AG.
At 10.03 after further ranting from Timmidman, the Chairman will politely ask him to ‘Urinate as he leaves the building’ there’s a good fellow.
(Timings may alter to take into account the crying of Timmidman into his hankie)

Guzz.....are all mestizo as thick as you? Those, again in big letters ARE ABOUT STATEHOOD. STATEHOOD HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH INDEPENDENCE AS A SOVEREIGN NATION. That vast majority want it the way it is and the USA is saying “statehood or leave” and the PR's are doing neither.
Oct 21st, 2012 - 07:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0PR wants the best of both worlds. For decades, the question of Puerto Rico's status has been hotly and actively debated, with dominant local political parties organized according to a relationship-to-the-U.S. ideology. For 40 years, the political leadership of the island has see-sawed between those who support statehood and those who support continuation of the commonwealth, with roughly 10% of the population supporting independence.
The problem with the polls, they never ask for EITHER statehood or independence. The vast majority of PR's twant the status quo, the vast majority of American want to stop the flow or roaches:
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-14/obama-wants-puerto-rico-to-decide-statehood-or-independence-1-.html
Independence is such a miniscule sector. In 1946, Gilberto Concepción de Gracia founded the Puerto Rican Independence Party (PIP), which continues to participate in the island's electoral process. The party has elected some legislative candidates, but has yet to win more than a few percentage points of the vote in gubernatorial elections (2.04% in 2008) or the legislative elections (4.5-5% of the island-wide legislative vote in 2008) There has only been 3 previous votes; 1967, 1993 and 1998 and the next...this November. Each time remaining a commonwealth status overwhelming wins by over 60 and independence gains less than 5% of the votes. Even the ”Independent Party only has 4% of the legislative seats. We do not WANT PR why the hell do you think we get having them vote? If you are the best mestizo's have.......no wonder you are fading, too stupid to know how to repopulate! Argue a point when you understand and know the facts.
I know what to do, lets ask the Puerto Ricans if they want statehood... Just in case....
Oct 21st, 2012 - 10:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Again for the fourth time it's on the ballot. # questions 1-keep the commonwealth 2- Become a state 3- become an independent nation. The 98 vote only 2.5 % wanted to be independent. Needless to say we where very upset. We really want them on there on, no one wants latin roaches, they are inbreed half breeds and collect welfare.....here, argentina should take them. They don't work and are happy with government handouts! Should fit right in with the peronist
Oct 22nd, 2012 - 12:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0Have you asked them if they want statehood at least?
Oct 22nd, 2012 - 06:34 am - Link - Report abuse 0Assuming you read my response you must mean me personally? What kind of a fool minded question is that? I want them out! I am tired of supporting them on welfare. They can't support themselves yet they are always flying back and forth to PR.

Maybe they want statehood then... When are they voting?
Oct 22nd, 2012 - 11:46 am - Link - Report abuse 0November 11th. And the same questions will be presented as in 1998, 1993 and 1967........Do you want to stay a commonwealth (territory), do you want to be a US State, or do you want to be a independent nation. As I said, the movenment to be an indepedent nation has never really moved beyond 4% of the population which is reflected in the elected officials as they as hold less than 4% of the elected seats and offices in all of PR.
Oct 22nd, 2012 - 12:43 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Poppy.Were you glad to be diverted to PR issue,and back to your racist,used and abuse heroe profile.If the USA,who took in PR,pulled out of PR,how much do you think you would save.Nothing I'd guess,because you are not significant in the whole picture,you just over-value yourself.
Oct 22nd, 2012 - 12:56 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Do you think the UK would pull-out of any of their overseas territories if they were a drain on the UK purse?
Thats for the name Yulena......I'm truly honored by your profile of me....again, always an assumption. Now have I ever stated I am significant to the marco view? Please point me to that post? But then again it would depoend on what the macro view is that is being viewed.

On a simluar note......RG's relaize that they cannot send an aircraft to fly the crew home and are asking neighbors for help......lol Chile offered but RG's are not all that thrilled and asked Brazil for help. What do they say about beggars? Oh yes, they can't be choosers, but RG's do not know that.
