    She said:
    “As long as I'm the President, they might retain the Frigate, but the freedom, dignity and sovereignty of this country will not be retained by any vulture fund”
    I say:
    Nothing to add……….

    She said:
    ”What we went through these past days brings a lot of pain, and I say it as an Argentine citizen…..“
    I say:
    I ”Think” that this pretty old ship is now being instrumental to an objective much greater that offering luxury cruises to navy cadets, paid in full by the Argentinean workers…… No pain at all for this Argentinean citizen.

    She said:
    ”I've seen some, luckily very few, who defended the vulture funds that had illegally retained our Libertad frigate in an African port”
    I say:
    Not even the Clarin Group, who’s dying to use this episode against the current administration, has had the Chutzpah to defend the Vulture Funds…..

    And the game of Cat and Mouse continues…..

    “the freedom, dignity and sovereignty of this country will not be retained by any vulture fund”

    Dignity is long gone. And still this quaint Argentine notion that sovereignity equals impunity.

    If Argentina doesn't want to play by the rules fine. No one EVER forced them to sign international treaties.

    What is your own justice, Guzz? Throwing people out of planes because they disagree with you? Starting wars because you want something someone else owns? That isn't justice.

    So once again Argentina cry 'foul' because they have be caught and have to pay money back loaned to them in good faith.

    But if Argentina want to 'go it alone' fine, who's stopping them? I doubt very many South American countries are willing to sacrifice themselves and their countries future, for the hubris of the Argentine Government.

    There will never be a 'United' South America whilst people like CFK put their own needs before the needs of her people.

    So now she has abandoned the ARA Libertad, and humilated her country once again.

    This Argentine government really need to take lessons on how to be diplomatic. When a country has something that you want (in this case Ghana), you don't go and insult them. You don't act arrogant and treat them like they aren't equal to you. And you certainly don't falsely accuse them of human rights abuses because you couldn't get your way.

    One way or another, Argentina needs to grow up and realise that just because you can shout loud, doesn't make you right. The Nazi's shouted loudly too.

    @8 : Argentina is sitting on U$S45Bn of reserves. TMBOA is sending a clear message that she has emasculated the armed forces , and in particular the Navy .Through their mobs in vatallon and La campora they can now do anything they want .Even if the opposition were to unite behind one candidate , these mobs will disrupt political rallies and then prevent them from voting .
    Argentina is becoming more and more like Zimbabwe every day.

    Of note is the fact that, once again, an Argentine Governments' attempt to use the UN&SC for its own immediate goals has been rebuffed entirely.

    As i've said elsewhere though: the Argentine Government only cares about what is thought of it internally: it has no interest whatsoever in how it appears outside of its own country.

    Take from that whatever you will, good or bad.

    ------

    ” SA people tends to find their own justice when it's not given to them ;)“

    ..and then pretend it didnt happen, or it was ”somebody else“ when the inconvenient truth emerges?

    ”That wasnt us, it was some other Argentinian who we no longer count as Argentinian because it would mean we have to own-up to things we dont want to”

    SOme national groups, indeed even their governments, are secure enough in their history to be able to recognise their past without haivng to pretend it wasnt their ancestors who did these things.

    In amongst the ouright xenophobia exhibited by some people on this website you might want to think about what that says about yourselves.

    So CFK scarifices another to try and save her own neck, not good is it?

    To lose one defence chief might seem an accident, two might seem to be unfortunate, three might seem coincidence and four seems to be habit.

    Tell me Think, do you believe that Timidman will now try the UNGA in the hopes of getting a resolution? A resolution that the Argentine government will immediately misrepresent.

    I know that your crystal ball doesn't work, but mine seems to be working just fine.

    You see, Think, my crystal ball is about reading and understanding the UN charter, looking at the relevant evidence of the Argentine agreement on defaulting, at past cases and coming to a logical deduction.

    Perhaps you should give it a try, you may actually learn something.

    How do you think the average Argentine citizen in the street is going to react to the fact that your President has essentially abandoned the Argentine flag ship in Ghana?

    Will they celebrate? Or will they be angry because your government has humilated the country once more on the international stage, and dented the pride of Argentina?

    How many more dents to national pride can and should Argentina endure at the hands of this inept government?

    What are your thoughts?

    “As long as I'm the President, they might retain the Frigate, but the freedom, dignity and sovereignty of this country will not be retained by any vulture fund” said Cristina Fernandez on Monday during the nationwide broadcast from Government House.

    First off, no one was after argentina's sovereignty, or freedom so what the hell is she talking about? There is no dispute with Ghana as they are only an intermediary enforcing international law from an action taken by creditor's. As for dignity.......what dignity? Dignity in refusing to pay back money Argentina borrowed. Where is the dignity in taking money and not giving it back? Vulture funds, Eagle funds...call it what you want but the fact remains that Argentina signed a contract to borrow money and pay it back. Argentina did not honor that contract. How can cfk reconcile that default with dignity?

    What about the same applying to the Falkland Islands peopl and their home land CFK. Again we see a leader with two faces. On the one hand condemning the very people who gave to her Country huge amounts of monitary aid which she now has no intention of honouring yet still does not recognise our rights to self determination .
    No wonder her rating is slipping so low. The genuine Argentine People have finally called her bluff.
    She is a finnished leader and if not stopped will further drag her Country and people down with her.

    @32 -Guxx

    You say:

    1. Lack of knowledgte/funds to do so.
    2. Disbelief in that your way of sacking mother earth is the right way to approach things.

    So you're Argentine today are you? Or are you saying that Uruguay actually owns Argentina?

    Well let's look at what you've written in more detail shall we?

    1. Lack of knowledge/funds to do so - Argentina has borrowed money and refused to pay it back. No one is stupid enough to throw good money after bad. Lack of knowledge. Well if your country (you are Argentine today aren't you?) had payed its debts, and not stolen companies belonging to international companies, then those very same companies would be eager to invest in Argentina and provide all the knowledge required.
    2. Disbelief in that your way of sacking mother earth is the right way to approach things - which is exactly the same way that the Argentine government would be sacking mother earth, if the had the money and knowledge. How very hypocritical of you.

    As for selling to the Chinese, you have to have something they want, and even then they'll only pay the lowest amount they can get away with.

    You've all gone down the 'Chinese' will save us route. Well they haven't, have they? They won't invest in Argentina because they don't trust the government there not to steal their money.

    The Chinese only care about the China - end of. They don't care for other countries at all, beyond how much oil, soy or other commodities they can get for the cheapest price possible.

    If you believe different then you really are deluded.

    As for CFK, the woman is becoming more unstable by the day. She must be seeing the writing on the wall. They only real question now, is will she take Argentina with her when she falls?

    @38 - Guzz

    No Guzz post 36 doesn't answer anything at all, so vague comment how Argentina's problems are always someone else's fault, in that case for not giving Argentina funds.

    The reason Argentina borrowed money was lack of funds to develop their country.

    The problem with Argentina is too much corruption. Too many people wanting their 'cut' and skimming it off the top, added to mismanagement and other economic factors.

    So Argentina defaulted. Not necessarily their fault, but it is their responsibility.

    The reason Argentina can't get funds now is because Argentina has REFUSED to pay back its debts.

    Let's put it simply, Guzz. If someone asks to borrow $200.00 from you, promising to pay you back with interest. They don't pay you back, even when you ask. They say they haven't got the money, but offer you $2.00 instead to settle the debt.

    You refuse to accept that because it is a ridiculous sum to offer compared to what you loaned them, and you say you'll collect the full amount at a later date.

    A few years later they try to borrow money off you again. Do you lend them the money or do you remeber that they still owe you money and refuse?

    That is what they international community has done.

    All of this is the fault of the Argentine government.

    As for resources. You lot? Which you lot is that? Is that you lot who live in Europe, like you do Guzz. Hyporcrite.

    Besides, Argentina has enough resources to make the country one of the largest economies in the world, and one of the richest. The only thing preventing them taking their place is themselves.

    But since they refuse to accept any responsibility for themselves, it immediately is the fault of...........(insert name).

    Well until Argentina accepts responsibility for itself and stops acting like a petulant child, no one will risk investing in their country, not even 'your' friends the Chinese.

    Do you all understand why we Argentine love CFK she is the first Argentine president who didn't sale her principals for a quick fix, she didn't trade in the people for a reward nor did she give up her country for ransom, she doesn't give into state terrorism, theft or piracy, we love and support you 100% CFK,. I think Argentina can charge Ghana with piracy and wait Until Ghana has something we Argentines can detain and ask them to pay bail plus interest equal to the proposed 20.000.000.00$ from the time the ship was high jacked. If ghanas laws can write up a theft we can do same in Argentina. I am sure UN will ask both nations to settle the matter only if Argentina escalates the conflict, other ways UN will say as many people suggested that there are things more important like killing Muslims in Syria or Iran as we all know the english are always working on theft and murder.

    UK posters
    One of the great ironies of this whole saga is that the UK (under Blair) did more than any other country to curtail the action of “vulture funds” and should be applauded for that. They are not nice organisations and it is widely recognised the damage they can have on undeveloped/developing nations.

    I can’t help thinking that if the country in strife was an African nation, there might be more sympathy for their plight. I know, it is all Argies own making and they have the natural resources, etc, etc, but the same argument would apply to an African nation, would it not?

    You are making no sense Guzz, nor do any of your posts mention the fact that CFK has abandoned the Argentine Flag ship. Surely you have an opinion on that?

    Or are you going to do the ususal thing of blaming everyone else?

    I'll remind you that no one forced Argentina to take out loans. No one forced Argentina to waive its sovereign immunity rights to obtain those loans. No one forced Argentina to sign international treaties stating that they would abide by certain rules and reguations.

    They did it of their own free will, and now they (the government) seek to weasel their way out of their responsibilities, and blame someone else for their own failings.

    No one wants to give Argentina charity. The international community would much rather see a successful nation than a failed one. We would rather see a rich and prosperous Argentina than a poor one.

    No one is out to 'get' Argentina, but people expect Argentina to live up to the international obligations that they PROMISED to abide by.

    Its all a matter of honour. Does Argentina honour its word or does it dishonour itself by refusing to?

    Argentina is fast losing any dignity and respect it had in the world, and you can all thank the current Argentine government and their policies for that.

    The problem with populist governments is that they need an 'enemy' to direct the peoples anger at, especially when they're cocking things up.

    So recently the Argentine government has told the Argentine people that the enemy are (in no particular order):

    The British
    The Falkland Islanders
    Europe
    Spain
    The USA
    The WTO
    The IMF
    Ghana
    The British (again)
    The Falklanders (again)
    Paraguay

    Next it'll be the UN for not supporting them in their desire to spout their nonsense on the wrong forum.

    Well I can tell you something, Guzz, the only problem Argentina has is itself, its inability to elect a government that isn't self serving.

    Hook, CFK is in a pickle. Inflation is around 25-30% but tax revenues have only gone up about 18% yoy. That tells you the economy is in freefall.
    She has only sent about 60% of what is required to the Provinces for their tax revenue sharing. The provinces are struggling to pay suppliers. The electrical and gas companies are in effect bankrupt. She has increased gov't spending 35% this year.
    She has HUGE shortfalls that in the past were made up with theft. There is nothing left to steal. The WB and IDB loans will be gone by December. She will have to make up those U$ somehow.
    The only solution that is left is to print pesos. So just give it a little more time. Provinces won't be able to make the Christmas bonus and she will cave and send them funds. It is all downhill from there. If she lasts that long.

    “and it is only going to get worse” – no, it is not.
    “you are on the cusp of a total melt-down both economically and politically” – no, economy growing at 5%, credit rating recently upgraded and outlook is good.
    “I hope you have stocked up on laundry detergent and sugar like I have been recommending” – no, no need. Supermarket shelves full.
    “You are going to need something to trade when the hyperinflation starts.” – no, inflation low and within target range.

    @1 Are you the “risen” Nestor? She's hilarious!
    She said:
    “As long as I'm the President, they might retain the Frigate, but the freedom, dignity and sovereignty of this country will not be retained by any vulture fund”
    Nobody wants your freedom, dignity or sovereignty. Just pay the money. And how side-splitting is it that SHE refers to sovereignty!
    She said:
    ”What we went through these past days brings a lot of pain, and I say it as an Argentine citizen…..“
    Good!
    She said:
    ”I've seen some, luckily very few, who defended the vulture funds that had illegally retained our Libertad frigate in an African port”
    She needs to read some papers that she doesn't control. Most of the world's press reports this objectively. The funny part is the argie “government” comments and statements. With “straight faces”!
    @4 Just the beginning!
    @6 Is that a threat?
    @22 Let's draw some parallels between argieland losing its boat and tossing people out of aircraft? Or perhaps between losing a little boat and trying to steal the Falklands?
    @27 Don't believe you. Who's cosying up to Iran? By the way, who sited artillery between peoples' homes in 1982. That's a breach of the Fourth Geneva Convention. Remember that intention to ship the Falklands population to Uruguay? That's another breach. Remember the painting of red crosses on anything and everything? That's another breach.
    @30 What “natural resources” are they?
    @32 So you're thick, broke and stupid. Nothing new!
    @36 “Other nations fair share...”? Be more specific.
    @48 You're funny. CFK's never had any principles. She hasn't traded in “the people” because that's who she steals from. Give up her country for ransom? Argieland's worth about 2 pesos. Who'd ask a ransom? Back on the piracy kick? Two notable pirates in argie history - David Jewett & Luis Vernet. No others recorded. “Killing thousands of innocent Muslims women and children”? “Innocent” and “Muslims” can't go in the same sentence.

    As I said, no one forced Argentina to do anything. No one forced them to take the loan, no one forced them to waive their sovereign immunity rights, but they did. Now it's way past time that the Argentine government did the honourable thing.

    The world is messed with all sort of troubles but at least it isn't ruled yet by Argentine Laws written by Rataladrona the Bipolar Genius.
    ...
    Whenever anything went wrong it became usual to attribute it to the Vultures. If a window was broken or a drain was blocked up, someone was certain to say that the Vultures had come in the night and done it, and when the key of the store-shed was lost, the whole Argentina was convinced that Snowball had thrown it down the well. Curiously enough, they went on believing this even after the mislaid key was found under a sack of meal.

    “Ah, that is different!” said Moreno. “If Comrade Kristina says it, it must be right.”
    ...
    ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL
    BUT SOME ARGENTINES ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.

We don't need to trade with terrorist, regardless of the english speaking community Who kills innocent Muslim women and children in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, egypt, turkey, Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen and Saudi Arabia for natural resources. Murderous english people the moral higher ground to ask, demand or comment on Argentine matters.

    Whenever anything went wrong it became usual to attribute it to the Vultures. If a window was broken or a drain was blocked up, someone was certain to say that the Vultures had come in the night and done it, and when the key of the store-shed was lost, the whole Argentina was convinced that Snowball had thrown it down the well. Curiously enough, they went on believing this even after the mislaid key was found under a sack of meal.

    “Ah, that is different!” said Moreno. “If Comrade Kristina says it, it must be right.”
    ...
    ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL
    BUT SOME ARGENTINES ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.

    Very nice adaptation. Frankly I feel sad about the entire affair. One if the few peace and positive image building tools has been lost due to reckless leadership.

    Urubus gather around dying and dead creatures.
    Vulture funds only prey on weak currencies.

    When debts are excessive and payments are not made, the bailiffs are sent in to possess assets. This time, the bailiffs get a boat.
    The message to CFK is .. any asset that can be reached will be appropriated, up to the value of the unpaid debt.

    The only way that CFK can keep urubus at bay is to be healthy.
    A healthy economy can bring her the 'freedom and dignity' she so craves. Her answers are in her own hands.

    So we are “the masters of double standards...” are we now?

    You Argentinian's are A-moral. do you know what that means? It means that you don't even know what morals are.

    You borrow money and don't pay it back, you throw your own people ( and nuns!!! ) out of planes, your armed forces break the Geneva convention at will. You steal land from your neighbours..... does that not sound amoral to you?

    But then ( as I suspect ) for you, that's just another day and you see nothing wrong with what you do and it's the rest of the world that is ganging up on you.......

    Maybe you will learn what Morals are, maybe you will surprise us all. I doubt it, but you might surprise us........

    CFK doesn't want to pay up and retrieve the ship, not when she can use it as an excuse to make a lot of noise about ''vulture funds'' and about how bad they are for wanting their money back. Then there is Ghana, who she can complain of ''siding'' with the ''vulture funds'', therefore deflecting attention away from the fact Argentina still has uncleared sovereign debt that she clearly does not wish to pay back, not at least the true amount owed, more a 'restructured' figure.

    There is of course the opportunity to make as much noise in the UN as possible about all this, to little real effect with the outside world, but as some would post on here, ''we love you Christina for standing up to those pirates''. Are these people so easily distracted by the obvious situation that is their current plight? An economy that is looking shaky, with INDEC fiddling the figures, with an isolationist policy that will strangle economic growth through lack of investment. I digress...

    I wonder how Tinman and CFK will spin the subject of the docking fees which has just crossed the million mark?

    I apologize ! I am a stupid newcomer and I got lost in this long list of comments.
    Yes, my post is @79. Your prompt help is welcome.
    Thank you.

    A cup of “espresso”, or a glass of wine, is paid for you here at the nearest bar: as soon as you happen to come here, give the bartender your nickname and you have your complimentary coffe or wine :-D

    Senor/Senora El Think happened to come recently just 300 km far from my place and he/she enjoyed Genoa “focaccia”: unfortunately I cannot treat you with that tasty “focaccia” (personally I recomment plain “focaccia”, without onions: El Think’s taste doesn’t match exactly mine) because it is not traditionally baked here, but I suppose you can make a good toast to the fall of the Ladroprogresista regime with our local sparkling wines.

    I am one of the 450’000+ Italian retail investors who made the painful mistake of trusting the new, fast growing, democratic Argentina and bought its bonds in late ‘90s. Almost 25 per cent of us resisted Argentine blackmailing and did not accept their poor swap offers.

    During the last 7-8 years I have been educated in advanced zoology by Kirchneristic governments and their supporters and now I am proud to know that actually I am not a human being but a bird … a little vulture. I did not realize it for most of my life: I badly needed Ladroprogresista wisdom to fix my stupidity.

    My wings are still short and weak and unfortunately I cannot lift that Argentine vessel in Tema: so I am gladly leaving Libertad to Mr. Singer’s stronger wings.
    But a large (70’000) flock of us flew to Washington DC to sue Argentina at the ICSID some years ago. Before the end of 2013 also our talons and wings will have the cumulative strength to grab and lift any Argentine asset our law firm can find around the globe, if the the Argie government doesn’t change its suicidal scofflaw policy.

I believe in a private market that boosts effition, competiveness and profit based on the environment and its needs.

    If you do not comprehend the extremely lucid judgement of Law Lord Justice Richard Adjei-Frimpong, and consider that somehow NML have made a mistake may I suggest you have been given incomplete information.

    @183 APPENDIX3 The terms of the bonds show an irrevocable waiver of immunity on the grounds of sovereignty by AG.

    This was subsequently placed before the Supreme Court in the UK and Law Lord Collins (Supreme Court of Justice) there concluded that AG had made the fullest possible waiver of immunity. Law Lord Phillips had made the point that “if a state waives immunity it does no more than place itself on the same footing as any other person”.

    In the CONCLUSION Law Lord Justice Richard Adjei-Frimpong made the only conclusion he could reasonably come to: there was insufficient evidence provided by the Defendant (AG) that would allow him to set aside his original judgement and remove the Order.

    End off as TMBOA has already said she will not bow down to vultures bah de blah, etc.

    In making her statement she appears to have disowned the Captain and 44 sailors: the very people who were carrying out their orders (which come from her government and hence she herself).

    Hope this helps.

    Sorry to let you down, but none of those things, nor that Swedish/Nordic-model will fit in SA-countries any time soon, especially in corrupt Argentina. I've been in both places, like in many other countries in the world. I just find it even funnier that you are supporting Argentina after what you wrote. The government of Argentina isn't interested/seeking any of those things, least it's interested of green-values. Argentina will never be Sweden, LOL, believe me, i have lived in both countries. Uruguay on the other hand might have chances, first because it's a smaller country and that Nordic-system is easier to install into a small country with less population. But first you'd need a non-corrupt way of doing things, and that's how things are traditionally done in SA. Besides Uruguay isn't even doing things locally, it wants to be bullied by Argentina and do things on Argentina's terms.

    Argentina has a long way to go. Taking control of her own market is one of the most important steps to take. For this, the pesification is needed. You can't have a country run by foreign currency. Also the control of the natural resources is crucial in order to achieve welfare. But you are right, we all need to stop thinking that the good stuff will rain down on us just because we look good. We also need to understand the taxing system and respect it, and that goes both for the tax payers and the ones responsible for the use of the money.

The harbor master is complaining that the Libertad is taking up valuable space and it is taking longer to unload cargo, especially with the increase in deliveries for the holiday season, ships are piling up anchored out of harbor and clogging traffic. They wrote a letter to the captain asking for the ship to be moved. Obviously even the harbor master is expecting to collect a brive. Stay where you are Captain! Ghana is responsible for you not being allowed exit, its their problem. It will continue to get uneasy and dangerous to enter in the coming weeks. Ship insurance gets costlier, insurance gets cut off, no ships, no cargo, no exports, no foreign curency. Time is on your side.

    “Nice deal on BMW opening a plant in Brazil.”
    It think that this is just lovely. This is good for Brazil, Mercosur, and Unasur. Lot's of auto parts work will be contracted out to Argentina, Uruguay and others in the region. Luxury car demand in Argentina alone has increased by 40%. This led to the government to negotiate a participation in the parts manufacturing for these luxury models. The agreement is in place. With all of the slowdown in the world and the region, this comes along just nicely.

    #226 that's why I support CFK 101% I also demand she build a nuclear defence program 100% made in Argentina and to implement a new tax for imports called Ghana tax to replace the Argentina navy fleet stolen.
    #227 I live in Canada but we have the right to go to Afghanistan and arm terrorists we also can kill libyans and innocent Muslim women and children, why couldn't an Argentina support CFK she is our elected president isn't she? I have a DNI and you probably don't even know what that is. So go find us WMD and and quit praying Argentine.
    #228 CFK had more balls then the navy they all bailed while CFK was delegating plan b at the UN, you loose try again. Any WMD yet or is that still a bogus charge like all the BS coming out of english talking heads.
    #229 you still fantasize about Argentine guys? Did you find the bogus WMD or killed all the ,Muslims yet?.
    #239 Los hermanos Sean unidos porque..............Los devoran Los de Afuera....CFK couldn't pilot the ship her self I think the navy does that but the navy abandoned libertad. And no group of Argentine occupyed the us embassy in protest, giving CFK no option but to go to UN to be told screw you, so now I hope you have enough balls to support a nuclear defence program 100% made in Argentina and also we need your help to push for a new import tax called Ghana to be charged to every none south American country to replace the stolen navy ship and pay for our borders and sea patrols. I wonder if you believed that there was WMD in Iraq because I don't know where you get those chilly CFK bogus theories.

    I just heard on an LA Spanish media that the shipping companies awaiting to unload in Tema are complaining. The Libertad affair is having an impact on their books. It seems that the harbor is small, this is a peak shipping season, and there are no alternative ports nearby. There is too much delay in unloading, perishables on dock and on waiting ships are at risk, there are costs impacts, deliveries are being impacted, clients are complaining, insurance agencies and brokers are nervous. Mmmmmm.

    If i may ask, what is with you and Nuclear Defence Programs and WMD?Where will the Government get the money needed to manufacture the materials to build the Plant. Where will they get the Uranium?from iran?That seems both possible and impossible. But why would they need such a thing? they have no enemies bent on destroying Argentina. They have no Cause to build the facility, or maintain it. If the Argy naval vessals are soo poorly maintained, do you think they will maintain such a facility that they will never use highly maintained?Doubt it. Uruguay has more of a chance to get a Nuclear facility than Argentina, and it doesn´t even allow any. Also is your proposed Ghana tax was to get passed, which i also doubt, it will hurt imports because they will now have to pay even more money to get their goods into argentina, where they can just go to chile or brazil or even paraguay and sells the same amount of goods without having to pay such high taxes. Also to end this there are no WMDs in Iran, no one thinks that, so please stop.

    To answer you question in general terms, most of the infrastructure for a nuclear weapons program is in place. The Uranium is in argentine mines. It is being mined, processed and enriched in In Argentina. US Companies have been buying Uranium from Argentina for their nuclear program for decades and paying good money for it. Argentina has had the technology to build a nuclear bomb since 1976. There are indications to believe that it was tested at a Laboratory level.
    Funding of the military and a nuclear program is a matter of priorities and needs. The underfunding and persecution of the military has its consequences, and the results are clear on the horizon.
    You disappoint me when it comes to knowledge of your region. Please inform yourself before making a comment.

    I am a human, and i am prone to make mistakes. But the question still stands, WHY? there is no reason to build a nuclear facility, or any bombs. Argentina is not involved in any major conflicts that would prompt the use of nuclear weapons. If argentina was to use one the whole world would take action against them. There is no reason to build them and didnt they sign a treaty which stated that they wouldnt build any nuclear weapons.

    Er, there's more to developing a nuclear weapon than having some uranium.

    You need expertise (that Argentina doesn't have), money (that Argentina doesn't have), technology (that Argentina doesn't have) and an ability to accept and ride out the consequences of breeching the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, and the fact that both Brazil and Chile would immediately cede from the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and develop weapons of their own to point at BA using the argument that it would be an act self defence against Argentine aggression.

There is no need to travel around the world to deliver a message when you can do it from your home. We kindly thank all outsider for their cheerful support and self serving contributions, but ultimately is the Argentine people who will bear the consequence of our actions. When every friend is out to back stab you it is better to stay home with your family!..this tax will do exactly that make those vulture funds supporting nation keep their busyness at home, a hefty 25% vulture tax can be a good starting base. Just an idea, One of the many because apparently a nuclear defence program is costly and we need as much revenues as we can gather.

No where near it.

    And I for one don’t need two links the same with a picture of TMBOA. Tip: you lot would have more chance of frightening people if you put her picture on the worlds PC systems than ever you have the hope of developing the crap from 1976!

    In case you had missed it with your head up TMBOA skirts, it’s nearly 2013, NOT 1976. THIRTYSEVEN YEARS is way, way out of current technology.

    And don’t crow about the medical reactor in Australia. You lot fcuked up big-time on that one, didn’t you?

    If it were not for the fact 3.5 million people I actual admire were just over the plate I would encourage your so-called scientists to work on the technology, safe in the thought there would either be a BIG radiation leak or a precursor explosion.

    The scientists who were available in 1976 have either retired or died. You new clutch of trainees are leaving the mad-house for elsewhere. And with idiots like you and the cnut in Canada on ‘their side’ who can blame them?

    Alex, what tripe are you peddling now?

    - first, it's way off-topic, another Toronto-centric rant because you cannot travel, and have experienced nothing else.
    - secondly, this is just one more unsubstantiated wild conspiracy theory
    -also, what is the significance of “gringo”?
    Do think perhaps the chip on your shoulder and your racism may be a barrier to integrating in what is a very egalitarian and inclusive society ??
    With it's large percentage of immigrants, Toronto likely has less than 60% of it households speaking English or French as a first language.
    You are the odd (supposedly reluctant) immigrant that does not fit in.
    - Occupy Toronto, how long ago was that? A year? More?
    And what happened in Canada - they were given lots of press and were unmolested, though many health, property damage, and drug laws were broken.
    In Argentina, I don't think they would put up with protests - split a few heads, maybe? But then, who cares - those people deserve it and are not productive for CFK and Argentina, right???

    what is “maté”, a children's drink, or is it an opium laced drink sometimes used to quiet kids when they are teething??

    Mate is a plant, we hack it and mix with hyacinth, ginger-root, lemon and sugar. Hot water on it makes it sweat, stir for 10 minutes and then drink in one go. Try it, very refreshing.

    Thanks for the explanations.

    Is it an intoxicant then, like Fijian “Cava”, from Cavaroot?

    Trouble with some Argies,
    Is that they engage their mouth, before they engage their brain,

    Which is great, if you had a brain to engage .lol.

    I am beggining to see your view point with regards to having Argentine Nukes. What would you say if the first one should be tested just a few miles off the coast of Ghana?

    Brilliant message of Churchillian defiance from the great Cristina. This is becoming a global cause celebre against the despicable vulture funds. Btw its just a distortion to say she's “giving up”, quite the opposite; she's refusing to give any ground, as is absolutely right, but will also I imagine get the ship back =) She's such an inspirational leader and fighter

    I really suspect BK being a Scot as well. I am not from the UK, but I can't image ANYONE from the UK comparing a man that steered the UK through WWII to a politically corrupt populist like kirchner. He is probably a sargent in the la campora corps.

    If you want to compare her to a figure in history I think Nero would be more apt. They were both very ugly, they both got to power by sleeping with someone powerful, neither accomplished much while in office, both suffered from retardation and syphilis and most importantly both did or are doing nothing while their country burns. (apologies to any descendants of Nero for making the comparison)

    Zhivago.....bk has never left the comfortable confines of the UK, he speaks of kirchner vicariously. He listens to the controlled and moderated news from the government controlled media reports and the rest from the la campora trolls. Either he himself is a la campora troll and he knows how bad it is (we all know the paid trolls of la campora vomit the triumphs of kirchner) or he is just another etreme liberal idiot, blinded by his perpetual errection for cuntina, which is obvious as he always states how beautiful she is with 10kg of makeup painted on her brickyard face.
    No one but him talks of her “beauty”, whats wrong with him? I bet bk is actually a female paid to blog about her beauty. asslip kirchner's ego of her looks is well known throughout SA.

    ”A vulture fund is a private equity or hedge fund that invests in debt issued by an entity that is considered to be very weak or dying, or whose debt is in imminent default. (vultures patiently circling, waiting to pick over the remains of a rapidly weakening company or, in the case of sovereign debt, debtor country).
    Market practitioners prefer to refer to them as 'distressed debt' or 'special situations' funds.
    Vulture funds focused on debt target not only corporate obligers, but also sovereign debtor states.

    In the recent case of Argentina,
    vulture funds bought up a significant portion of the country's external public debt at very low prices (sometimes only 20% of their nominal value), and then attempted to cash them when the Argentine economic crisis resulted in the bonds' default in January 2002.
    (A single vulture fund run by Kenneth Dart, claimed $700 million in a lawsuit against the government of Argentina.)

    **Argentine investors were behind many of the secondary market purchases, however. Some estimate that in the debt exchange of 2005, Argentine bondholders controlled over half of the debt tendered. **” (Wiki.)

    It would seem that ... what ever CFK says ...
    many of her vultures are Argentinian vultures.
