    If the crew open fire on the Ghanaian port authority, it constitutes an act of war (ARA Libertad being a ship of war, right?) and they'll be wiped out.

    When CFK called her crew back and left the ship without a fuzz, you cried about her and her crewmembers not having the balls to protect their sovereignity. Now that the crew says “here, but not longer”, you cry because the Ghanese personnel aren't allowed on the ship at will.

    As previously said in this thread it is pretty sure the Ghanaians have now brought in their Army near the ship and will not tolerate a group of armed bandits threaten their port officials. As always when Argies resort to military action they come off second best.

    Argies are only brave when they have guns and the others don't. If the port athorities and coast guard decided to arm themselves in reaction to this naked agression then the Argies will either run away (perhaps swim) or cry not to shot at.

    Even the Argie sailors lack a spine. I imagine the Argie trolls are proud of their sailors arming themselves and threatening unarmed officials.

    Update:
    Guzz says he was “exiled” to Denmark er, umm Sweden, I think...

    He now says he has“returned' to SA because, according to him, ” Gusanos are those who move to Europe or the US because they cannot live off others for free in SA“.

    He implies he is in Uruguay, but its more likely he never leaves Argentina.

    BTW, this one tough character with a strong moral fiber. ”Guzzano claims he was a brave Socialist fighting against the fascists in Operation Condor, in the 1970's.

    That should make him 60-70 years old, by now. Do you think he shows that maturity ??

    Well my daughter just stole my ipad while I was making her breakfast. That's gratitude for you. I can't be bothered trying to find where one of the kids left the family laptop's lead which wasn't where they were when they let the said device run flat. I left my laptop in the office at work and can't be fagged to go and get that. So I am on very borrowed time on Mrs Bloggs's MacBook Pro while she's outside tending to the hens.

    Guzz has actually helped me keep things in context. I don't have an issue with him or Argentines in general. I am simply a Falkland Islander who had his back up a little because the government of our nearest neighbour kept trying to use us as a distraction from her own problems. Actually I'm not concerned about our security...

    Sorry. Mrs Bloggs is coming in through back door for her usual Saturday morning ritual of catching up with news and replying to emails whilst eating breakfast. Being on her beloved MacBook Pro on a Saturday morning after the hens have been tended to is suicidal.

    For someone who 'claims' to Uruguayan you seem so personally invested in the Argentine cause, not even the Uruguayan government is openly protesting what the Ghanaians are doing. After reading your posts on here I am satisfied that you are Argentine. Hopefully the Ghanaian military will shoot next time they raise their arms , they have probably been taking advice from the British Foreign office and know that if you fight back, the white flag very quickly follows.

    Easiest thing to do is. A. Cut off thier shore supply, it takes a lot of diesel to keep the lights on, galley running and electrical equipment running off generators, B. Disconnect them from the effluent barge or tanker that will be tending them for sewage etc, I don't personally know how much thier sewage treatment plant can hold but I bet it's not much, and it is illegal to discharge sewage directly overboard inside territorial waters (not that illegal will bother rgenweener) but believe me the ship will soon be stinking. C. Cut off fresh water supply from jetty, ships evaporators capability to make fresh water from sea water is greatly reduced when a ship is alongside and of course needs power from generator to make it happen which takes me back to A

    The sailors should be court marshalled and the captain reduced to the ranks or dishonourably discharged for this cowardly action. I realise that AG does not understand anything to do with the concept of honour.

    No doubt you would crap over the side of the ship - but their is a law against it whilst a ship is in port.

    The Ghanaians would have to add environmental terrorism to the list of crimes against the Argentine Sailors.

    Threatening behaviour
    Refusing to obey a legal order
    Environmental terrorism

    Of course, if they were ever stupid enough to open fire, they would all be arrested and charged with attempted murder, or murder if they actually killed someone.

    I am always surprised that Argentina seems to get away with things that civilized country would not dream of doing. I think most countries treat them like angry teenagers, who don't know how weak and stupid they really are.

    This was a sophomoric act that will not go un-noticed. It would be quite embarrassing for RG Navy personnel to rot in jail in Africa.

    BTW I see Obama is going to Ghana to show support for their growing democracy and rule of law. I wonder if he has any trips planned to Argentina...probably not

    I wonder what is taking so long to repossess this ship... I wonder if Singer is letting it sit there and hoping for more embarrassing international incidents. Maybe, since time is on his side.

    The USA is a huge and very wealthy country it would take generations to end up like Argentina. Look how long it took them to go from 1st world to 3rd world 5-6 generations and they were no where near as rich as we are plus we work and make things not just live off what the land can produce and are at the whims of the weather for our survival.

    @79 thats right PH pointing guns at unarmed civilians, why not just get the quartermaster to say I'm sorry I cannot let you on board, this is Rg soveriegn territory, that's all they need to say no need to be pointing guns. Any Naval ship is soveriegn territory same as an embassy that's why you fly the flag on it, anyone who steps onboard by invite is then subject to the laws of the Nation the ship belongs to

    I think there are a couple US Senators that want to see it get back on track and your Ambassador is falling all over himself to get it done.
    As MercoSur is failing and Uruguay sinks along with Argentina I can see the drooling over the USA market is starting again.

    The biggest thing that has changed is the ability of Uruguay's neighbor to spend U$ in their country.
    Don't you think they are a bit worried about this? Uruguay is very dependent on a good summer season, whole towns exist solely for this purpose.
    MercoSur has not worked for them, Argentina is a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE trading partner and even your inept commie Prez is looking for alternatives.
    The FTA is done, maybe there are a few details to iron out yet but it will happen sooner than later. It does require Uruguay to abandon MeroSur though...that'll be a blow to CFK and her papi Chavez.
    And it won't be on CNN, Uruguay is too small and barely anyone has ever heard of it in the North.

    “Under the Mercosur agreement, this is probably about as close as Uruguay will come to a FTA with the US, unless the Free Trade Area of the Americas somehow becomes a reality.

    Argentina and Brazil have been criticized for promoting protectionist policies to the detriment of Uruguay and Paraguay, the two considerably smaller Mercosur nations. Uruguayan Vice President Danilo Astori went so far as to say in March that “Argentina completely ignores the Mercosur treaty and spirit.”

    Despite growing disillusionment with Mercosur among the people of Uruguay, it’s unlikely that the country will leave Mercosur. In fact, President Jose Mujica has promised to “fight to the death” for the future of Mercosur.

    In the end, Mercosur’s restrictions on bilateral trade agreements will present the greatest hurdle to establishing a full-blown FTA between the US and Uruguay.”

    What in there prooves your point?

    That Mujica doesn't want any FTA with you? Indeed
    That Mercosur doesn't want FTA's with you? Indeed
    That Uruguay isn't leaving Mercosur? Indeed
    That you are a charlatan? Indeed

    Right dickhead let me explain, the clue is in your stupid statement. We point guns at pirates because.........................wait for it ...............they're fuckin pirates the word pirate you should understand, if they boarded and took away an Rg tanker would they be pirates then, of course they would you dick, pirates don't care who's ship they target including YOURS. They board tankers and anything else with AK47's and take hostages for ransom, nationality does not matter to them Rg, British, Us, Russian, Afghan, they don't give a fook mate . So where is your fuckin Navy protecting the innocent...........................oh sorry I forgot.

    I think this is fun. The crew of a vessel for which the argie “government” specifically waived immunities face local authorities with loaded weapons. Surely the article's headline should be something like “Argentine Military Maniacs Respond to Port Officials with Armed Resistance”? As I recall, Ghana has 2 light infantry battalions, an infantry regiment, an armoured regiment and an artillery regiment in close proximity. So this should be quite simple. Move up the artillery regiment and zero in the guns. Move up the armoured regiment for the frontal approach supported by the infantry. From the seaward side, anything available. Ghana does have a number of military helicopters from which to drop grenades and the like. In the old days, the greatest dangers for the crews of wooden wind-powered vessels were falling masts and splinters from the woodwork. Hopefully, the Port of Tema has salvage equipment. So, open fire and cut the masts off in 10-foot sections. Having masts, yardarms and the like crashing around their heads and through the deck should cause argies to re-assess the situation. Bring the sights lower. Shells smashing through the gunwhales and the felled masts could be quite good. Bring the sights a little lower. More or less horizontal to smash straight through the hull. And at what cost? 15 argie bodies. Which can be tossed overboard and “lost”. The other 30 will “surrender”. Bawling, crying, defecating, frightened, grizzling, peeing, puking. trembling, wanking (last time). Could there be “wounded”? Nah. If it's not dead, make it dead. Give the colonialists a taste of the “old days”. Spears. Decapitation. And, just to round out a proper appreciation of argie attitudes, impalement. It is important that all this is videoed. CFK will want the DVD. Off stage right: Hysterical British and Falkland Islands laughter! And the cost? 45 argie criminal pirate corpses. It's all good!

It's nice to have some time off and catch up with friends but they make the total time away add up. Do you go to Central America/ Carib region much? I feel like I spend half my life there.

I get sent invites to all sorts of dinners and parties all over the world and it always amazes the hosts AND ME how many I can turn up for.

    The thing is........ we are agreed that ARA Libertad doesn't have any fuel and so, even if they wanted to, they can't move right?

    No one actually has to go on board do they? they just cast off the lines from the dock side and have a couple of tugs standing by to push ARA Libertad anywhere they want it to go right?

    The sailors can't shoot anyone cause they are not boarding the vessel and if they don't want to find themselves stuck on a sandbank somewhere then they have no choice but to comply.

    I can not believe the Ports and Harbours Authority are handling them with kid gloves.... It's their Port, their rules and if the ARA Libertad doesn't want to comply then shove them on a sandbank out of the way.

    Well I know where Guzz is from. He's from Argentina.

    However, he's so embarrassed to be an Argentinian that he swears blind that he is a Uruguayan/Swedish/Dane.

    He is also a marine engineer/a student or more likely unemployed, spitting on the very hands that feed him.

    He is also a 70 year old 'twenty-something', with an obvious poor memory, because he can't keep up with his own lies.

    He is also brilliant at English grammar and often points out when other posters get their spelling or grammar wrong, but gets upset when his own failings in that area are pointed out to him.

    He also hates the military, whilst at the same time supporting dictatorships, and a socialist who states on minute that he respects life (constantly mentioning how the evil British and Americans are killing women and children in Afghanistan), but supports the setting up of concentration camps to dispose of all those who do not support his own political dream - to have all of South America forced into a Socialist Republic, run by Argentina (despite the fact that he is supposedly Uruguayan/Swedish/Danish - you get the picture).

    However, back to the thread. I wonder if Ghana will sent their Army and Navy to remove the crew of the ARA Libertad should they be foolish enough to wave their weapons at Ghanaian civilians again?

    Of course, the Argentine government will try and play the victim again, but it will be well documented how the Argentine sailors broke the law.

    Serving a prison sentence in Ghana probably wasn't on the minds of these sailors when they set sail from Argentina. I wonder how long they'd get for threatening behaviour and/or assault?

    Argentina is doing itself no favours with these stupid childish actions.

    The Ghanaians are within their rights to ask for the Libertad to be moved to another part of the port.

    Moving the Libertad has nothing to do with the pending case of Argentinian debt.
    It would not harm Argentina to allow the vessel to be moved, it would show maturity on Argentina's part if they allowed the move.

    Pointing their weapons at unarmed officials is the nearest Argentina will ever get to a military victory. Expect the sailors to get Argentina's highest military honours when they return to BA (if they return) , plus a few statues put up...

    If they are killed Argentina can always refuse to take the bodies back and start launching a sovereignty claim for Ghana.

    Even though the ship has not moved berths, it's still in Ghana, not Argentina.

    The Argentinian military still have not worked out the knack of fighting succesfully against opposition which is armed and can fire back, so if the Ghanians move in military force, the Argentinians favourite military handsignal will be exercised-Manos Arriba!

    You do not have to post on this site if you do not wish.

    We will happily discuss the news stories between ourselves, without any distractions or harrassing insults to the Brits (and friends).
    Perhaps some 'real', thinking Argentinians will be more encouraged to post,ole 'Jimmy' and 'Patonuzu', recently.
    I am sure they have much to tell us about the feelings of the people towards CFK.

    BTW, what is the Contact info of La Campora and La Campora Juvenil ??
    Does Maximo have “just a fax#” or can we phone him directly.

    Once again we have come to claim our sovereign rights
    You have no sovereign rights.

    It’s not a historic claim but an absolutely present-time claim
    So the Falklands in present-time, can claim Argentina.

    General Assembly) which calls on all of us to begin sovereignty talks
    Prove it, show us this document that states in English and or Spanish,
    That specifically says [sovereignty]

    The plundering of natural resources that do not belong to her
    just like CFK does …

    The UK is responsible for any ecological catastrophe
    We always blame the British for every thing, because we are innocent, [CFK]

    Censorship.
    It’s not only the Argies that are censored.

    Bla bla, says CFK its all mine all mine., we Argentinians can claim what we want , when we want , and from who we want , blab la .

    I'm giving up on Mercopress as of tonight. NONE of my family or friends read it anymore. NOBODY in Stanley is discussing the chances of Argentina getting its hands on our islands anymore. We're secure and I have no more interest in reading the posts of shitty trolls.

    I just read on one of these threads where either Guzz or TTT/ Tobias/ Dam / etc etc (they are both the same person as far as I can tell but they squeal like pigs if I say so) wrote something to the effect that we, the pro-Falklands posters think that other posters are non-genuine if they don't agree with our views.

    Of course, if CFK won't send Air FRANCE to pick them up, Singer may have to drop them at Guzzano's place in Montevideo.
    A bit like Argentina abandoning and refusing to re-patriate the troops of the failed invasion force.

    To get back to the original article, it is the captains duty to defend his ship. How was he to know this wasnt just another trick to cut out his vessel by the creditors.Nobody got killed and no shots were fired. If he had allowed his ship to be taken by a trick he would have been rightly shot for dereliction o f duty on his own quartedeck, Bravo for you capitan! You acted as you should.
    The real failure is the ineptitude of the Argentine diplomatic service and possibly the Admiralty in Buenos Aires. The ambassaress in Ghana should be closely monitoring the situation. What took her so long to sort the situation? Polishing her nails perhaps?

    Interesting man Artigas, although he did hold many “Anglo” values and ideas
    ”Artigas admired the United States of America and was said to always carry a copy of the United States Constitution with him. He wanted the United Provinces of the River Plate government to be based on the same federalist ideas as the USA. These ideals went against what the Buenos Aires government of the time wanted (a centralized state; some even supported the idea of putting a European monarch in charge of the newly independent lands), but he managed to gain the support of some other provinces. Because of this, the Buenos Aires government supported the Portuguese invasion of the Eastern Bank.”
