Falklands’ referendum, a “democratic and incontestable” answer to Argentina’s ambitions
The Falkland Islands elected government has confirmed the dates and final wording of the referendum on the political status of the Islands, based on their right to self determination and to counter Argentina’s repeated calls for negotiations over sovereignty. Read full article

OR
Would you like to be ethnically cleansed by a mad despotic state who has invaded you in your recent history. Would you like to be thrown alive from aeroplanes and to be governed by a pschotic harridan with a Botox fetish.
What do you THINK?
@1 I think the likelihood of an argentine boat full of the la hitler campora youth sailing 300 miles to the falklands is low.
Jan 18th, 2013 - 03:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I'm pretty sure the UN will have to accept that this referendum has taken place, because of their clause about 'free association' with another state. The C24 will carry on ignoring the wishes of any of the islanders though without actually having visited them.
I'm pretty sure that Brazil and Uruguay will claim it's an illegal referendum because the falklands is an implanted population, without providing a jot of evidence to say why they think it's an implanted population, because quite frankly they don't know. Then they'll sign some papers about it.
The Argies will still carry on demanding negotiations, then demanding it's undeniably theirs, then saying they just want to chat, then saying the falklanders should all be genocided, and this time the UK will have a definite answer to throw back at them.
Not much will change though.

Jan 18th, 2013 - 03:26 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What convoluted and particular logic of the British hypocrites. They occupy a territory outside its British Isles (Europe) and ask themselves if they want to continue living as British occupiers. Hard to understand this “nonsense” common.
Jan 18th, 2013 - 03:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Thieves will occupy the yard of your house and ask themselves if they want to keep the loot instead of depend on the authority of the owner of the house.
It would be like if Argentines they occupy and expel authorities Man island and then ask themselves if they want to remain Argentines having nothing to do with the authority of London.
Of course the “british” argue that were not Argentines at the time of theft, but that is against the historical evidence.
Here's a real “Malvina” Argentine born in Puerto Soledad long before the very few remaining Britons who claim a lineage “ancient” in the Malvinas Argentines Islands.
A valid test that were our for right own long before, so that a search in these conditions, is invalidated.

The Atlantic is not your yard, we were in it a long time before you were ever conceived of in South America by killing all your brown folk.
We have the objective history to back up our claims, and when you started the War of Aggression in 1982 against the demands of the UN, you lost any claim you have to the islands under international law.
The falklands really are a case of 'finders keepers, losers weepers' and boy oh boy do you losers weep.

The big difference is the Falklands had no indigenous population, so the current inhabitants have MORE right to their land..as you do to yours.
And because your piss weak country full of cowards were unable to bully them in 1982, you come on here everyday crying about it. boo hoo give me Las Malvinas...boo hoo...nasty much more more powerful, decent, humane and respected country....boo hoo...I'm a pathetic Argie with a tiny penis!!
@9 It's the only beacon of hope their twisted indoctrinated minds have left, as their country crumbles around them. If they can get their grubby hands on the Falklands, suddenly the clouds will part and all Argentina's problems will be magically solved. It's pathetic really.

Yes, just a few problems with that.
1 The Falklands were a British territory before Argentina existed.
2 So the British took up residence in the garden before the current occupants lived in the house.
3 The current occupants of the house murdered the original owner of the house in order that they could live in the said house, when the British were already living happily and peacefully in the garden and didn't murder anyone.
You Argentines are complete dicks!

By the way, the Falkland Islands belong to the Falkland Islanders. Their British Overseas Territory status is there because those people whose islands they are, wish to have a connection with the UK. They might have liked to have had closer ties to Argentina instead. However, 1982 and CFK's attitude towards the Islanders have rather spoiled that.
@Gustbury surely somewhere a long the line your mother or her mother must have screwed a Spanish pirate??? just like your Queen Hitler Cristina must have screwed a Nazi,isn't it ALL IN THE NAME
Jan 18th, 2013 - 06:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The problem the FI's face is that CFK is trying to secure her legacy; the unhinged crone now knows that her policies have directly lead to the miserable failed state her country finds itself in. Without a big win - and it needs to be very big to offset the litany of disasters she's caused - she will be forever remembered as the one who singularly and spectacularly fvcked things up. The only thing big enough to qualify is complete control of the FI, hence her bring it up at the opening of an envelope, hence the mood swings (a sign of deep stress).

Anyway well done the Falkland Islands once this vote is over and ratified by the UN then the rg trolls can go and sulk in there methadone induced little worlds and watch the glorious islands they want so badly go from strength to strengh and prosper. And us Brits will always standby the Falklands and defend them as long as they require it, and we'll do it without question. The Union flag flies over Stanley “bloody marvelous”

Two points in case, the Referendum is being held at the instigation of David CAMERON and the British. False, the Referendum is the Islanders answer to Argentinas UN tactics.
The UN will not recognise the result of the Referendum because the population are implanted colonists. False again, Ban Ki Moon, himself has come out and stated that the Right to Self Determination exists for all people.

Jan 19th, 2013 - 03:40 am - Link - Report abuse 0I thought I finally had to add something after nobody seemed to comment on the great link that #4 Malvinero put up.
For any that didn’t bother looking, it clearly indicated that proto-Argentina/Vernet knew that the claims via Spanish inheritance and Jewett’s landing lacked any substance.
Also, the diary entry (when viewed alongside the British-issued papers for Vernet and his workers to live on the islands, and his correspondence with the UK post-1833) show Vernet to be a deceitful man, and if not for that deceit clearly he would have been removed from the Falklands as Swiftly as the Garrison in 1833.
Someone needs to get a copy of this diary before they realise this strengthens the Falklander’s case.

At the C24 in June 2012, with CFK leading in a person an Argentine delegation of 90+ ministers, provincial governors. mayors, trade union leaders, etc, grandson Marcello Luis Vernet read copiously from the diary, and even quoted in written testimony the passage wherein Vernet decides to claim the Falklands for Argentina in 1829.
Not one of the ninety seems to have noticed, and Marcello's highly public undermining of the whole basis of the Argentine sovereignity claim is now firmly lodged in the records of the C24, and indeed freely available on the web site of the Argentine ambassador to the UN.

Commander my arse. The first thing you've got to do to be a good commander is command respect. There's an old saying: You can't please all the people all the time. The great naval commander royal navy retired couldn't please anybody (Argie, Brit or Falkland Islander) ANY of the time. At least the Malvinistas have ditched the pitch now; it never worked and I almost agonised for them for how long they tried to keep it up.
@60/66: Putting Argentina's kettle logic argument for its sovereignty claim & dispute to one side for now, what disturbs me greatly is the systematic use of the phrase “transplanted population” to distinguish the present day population of the Falkland Islanders by the Argentina in its official submission to the UN C24
Jan 19th, 2013 - 11:40 am - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina systematically conducts a campaign of political & economic persecution against the regional ethnic minority of the Falkland Islanders who are subject to repression of their political & economic development
Argentine authorities deliberately incite hatred against the Islanders labeling them implants, squatters, sheep-farmers, kelpers & pirates in deliberate targeted acts to dehumanize them as a collective group in a calculated effort to secure their regional ostracism through repression of transport & trade links & normal relations. The Argentine authorities deliberately scapegoat the Falkland Islander home & abroad to justify their hostile acts against them using the big lie propaganda technique & rhetoric of past dictatorships to further their political goals
The Argentine justification for doing this appears to be based on a fallacious argument that somehow the people living in the non-self-governing territory of the Falkland Islands today must be punished for actions of the British government to assert its sovereignty in the Falklands when it was first challenged by the government of Buenos Aires in 1829
It appears the Argentine government's political argument against the present-day Islanders rights is based on medieval concept in law of 'corruption of blood” which warrants extra-judicial punishment by forfeiture of their human rights under international law & property rights through illegal expropriation & escheatment to the Argentine state by their forced deportation to Britain
Argentine should ends its extra-judicial persecution of the current population the Islands & confine itself to pursuing its claim legally at the UN ICJ
And surely they need 2 days to vote because the journey from UK to the isles lasts 17 hours, so they can have time to arrive

Jan 19th, 2013 - 06:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It's quite a while since I read one of your posts because they are so full of crap but let's have a look at this post more closely.
“Vritish slaves of fakland holding firm have no say in Argentina,”
There are no slaves in the Falklands. Everyone is here of their own free will and everyone who works gets paid reasonable wages commensurate with their skills.
We don't want any say in Argentina so that's fine by us.
“they all have to go home one way or another,”
I agree. I usually drive, sometimes ride by push bike or, if I've had a few, I walk.
“or else I will have to claim my gold mine in San Juan illegally occupied by barrick gold,”
Go right ahead.
“end the theft of Argentine resources,”
That sounds like an internal Argentine issue. I suggest you speak to CFK (actually that may be a conflict of interest for her).
“pari pasuu for all or justice for none,”
Again, that's an internal Argentine issue but I agree. Your government should have to pay everyone like te courts have ruled.
“white people think they can tell others what to do but I say execute all outside terrorists thefting resources from your land.”
Black and white people think they can tell others what to do. Especially if they are leaders or managers. What's your point? A racist one? Be careful, Argentina is full of white people. Thnaks for your advice. If anyone tries to theft our resources we'll consider your advice when we convict them.
“Islands Malvinas Argentina is not negotiable,”
That's fine, we don't want your Islands Malvinas. The Falkland Islands sovereignty isn't negotiable either. How many people live on your Islands Malvinas? We have about 3,000 living on the Falkland Islands.
“we support a nuclear defence program 100% made Argentina to end the illegal occupation and theft by vritish illegal aliens.”
Who is we?
“Long live CFK down with the nuclear armed terrorist and thieves from UK.”
Why would CFK want to live down with the nuclear armed terrorists and thieves from the UK?

The UN principle and concept of Territorial Integrity & National Unity & disruption thereof applies the the borders of member states as extant on 24th October 1945 when the UN Treaty came into force
Jan 19th, 2013 - 07:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Applying the principle of Territorial Integrity to the Question of the Falkland Islands, would refer to the succession of the Falklands Islands & its effect on British territorial integrity and British national unity
Since the British first colonised Port Egmont in 1765, asserted their sovereignty rights through diplomatic protest at the critical date of 1829 when the sovereignty dispute first arose & since 1833 have exercised de facto sovereignty over the Falkland Islands for more than 180 years, received acquiesence from both Argentina in 1850 & Spain in 1865 & also defended the territory from Argentine invasion in 1982 and retained sovereignty under the international principle of uti possidetis having been victorious at the end of the conflict it is easy to see the British could be materially affected by the self-determination of the population and independence of the Falkland Islands
The population has no connection to Argentina and the Falkland Islands territory has never been under sole Argentine sovereignty, whilst the lands under the control of the Buenos Aires revolutionary government did not extend further than the 37th parallel south some 900 nautical miles north of the Falkland Islands
In these circumstances, it is not clear how the modern state of Argentina can possibly claim & prove any form of disruption to either its national unity or territorial integrity at the UN International Court of Justice
Until Argentina proves or disproves its claim at the UN ICJ, there is no legal impediment for the population who live on the listed non-self-governing territory of the Falkland Islands to continue with self-determination
Argentina terminated the negotiations under UN resolution 2065, but is free to accept FIG's UN C24 offer to enter talks in June 2012

This is not so, rather its terms of reference are determined by resolution 1654 which is to examine the application of the Declaration on the granting of independence to colonial countries and peoples contained in its resolution 151 , to make suggestions and recommendations on the progress and extent of the implementation of the Declaration, and to report to the General Assembly
Jan 19th, 2013 - 08:56 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Under its UN treaty obligations, the UK must implement Article 73 requirement in the listed non-self-governing territories under its administration, including the case of the Falkland Islands, to develop self-government, to take due account of the political aspirations of the peoples, & to assist them in the progressive development of their free political institutions, according to the particular circumstances of each territory
The fact is under the UN treaty regarding the Pacific Settlement of Disputes, Article 36 clearly states that legal disputes should as a general rule be referred by the parties to the International Court of Justice in accordance with the provisions of the Statute of the Court . All UN member states agree to Article 103 that in the event of a conflict between the obligations of the Members of the United Nations under the present Charter & their obligations under any other international agreement, their obligations under the present Charter shall prevail
Thus Argentina can obtain either an advisory or binding judgement on the Question of Falkland Islands regarding retroactive application of the UN Treaty to the historical Sovereignty dispute or its contemporary political aim to deny the population of the Falklands self-determination & seek their forced deportation

Jan 19th, 2013 - 08:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for six days. Eventually, Michael the archangel found him, resting on the seventh day.
He inquired of God, “Where have you been?”
God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, “Look Michael, look what I've made.”
Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, “What is it?”
“It's a planet,” replied God, “and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place of great balance.”
“Balance?” inquired Michael, still confused.
God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth, “For example, Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth while Southern Europe is going to be poor; the Middle East over there will be a hot spot. Over there I've placed a continent of white people and over there is a continent of black people,”
God continued, pointing to different countries. “This one will be extremely hot and arid while this one will be very cold and covered in ice.”
The Archangel, impressed by Gods work, then pointed to a small group of Islands in one corner and asked, “What's that one?”
“Ah,” said God. “That's The Falkland Islands, the most glorious place on Earth. There are beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, streams and an exquisite coastline. The people from The Falkland’s are going to be modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be found travelling the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard working and high achieving, and they will be known throughout the world as diplomats and carriers of peace”.
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed; ”What about balance, God? You said there will be BALANCE!“
God replied wisely. ”Wait until you see the loud-mouth Wankers I'm putting next door to them in Argentina....”

ALEX VARGAS - unlike you, we are not stupid. We understand what we write about and post. We understand the difference between history and propaganda. We don't blindly repeat things we don't understand or nonsensical propaganda.
Further, we do not forget from one day to the next what we have posted. You change your stories as needed, to duck responsibility, questions, or judgements of your true character or motives.
You have boasted many times that you live in Canada, now you cryptically say you live in 'America', what's that? Do you mean the continent of North America, in a region governed by a state called Canada??
Oh, you say you don't know anything about ”Canuda“???
”I don't even know what canuda is, is it another facist racist culture murderers of natives and ?“
Well if you are Argentinian and ”love CFK 140%“ as you say, you would certainly be aware that YOU are a member of a ”fascist racist culture murderers of natives and ?” currently ongoing, today.
Since you live in Canada, you would also recognise that it is certainly NOT a fascist or racist state ( witness the rich multiculturalism). The Aboriginal people's question is openly debated by government and media and hundreds of millions of $$$ 's allotted to native groups each year for their own discretionary spending, as well as tax breaks, free education, etc etc.
Argentina allows her natives to die of Dengue or police murder them, outright.
We know that “Pirat-Hunter” is really ALEX VARGAS from Canada, you used to post the same hatred under your real name - moron!!

She even tried to turn the president at the time onto the idea of us giving away the islands, presumably still fuelled by the history of the Monroe Doctrine.
Current president Obama has even been seen to be untypically pro-argentine, with some theories existing about them wanting to throw the relationship with the British to the wolves, in exchange for 'good boy' foreign policy credits in South America.
With this in mind, the current strategy of quiet diplomacy in Latin america is probably the best way forwards for the UK. At least we want to trade with them, unlike the Argies.

It is disturbing and offensive that the Argentine state calculates to disenfranchise the Falkland Islanders and that the Argentine people have been indoctrinated by the Argentine state to prefer the ethnic cleansing of the Falkland Islands of any one of British ancestry, to strip these people of their cultural identity and to carry out their forced deportation to Britain, without regard to whether the people were born their or have been immigrants for many years and all would prefer to see that the Islanders lose their home, their possessions, livelihoods, community and way of life, irrespective of the supposed protection of the 1994 Argentine Constitution
It is worse still that South American states collude with Argentina in their odious aim, promoting their own narrow interests and perverting the just principles of the UN Charter
No, Mr Argentine official, the truth of the matter is that it is the Argentine state political and economic persecution of the Falkland Islanders that is an affront to intelligence, and a crime in nation and international law for which the Argentine state and its misguided allies are accountable

Between UK and the Falklands however with Special Relationship Treaties in place it can be business as usual for as long as the Islanders want it: Queen still Head of State; Can even keep the flag as it is (Fiji did). In other words our relationship can be as it is now; but to the outside world The Falklands Sovereignty claim would be ended.
Perhaps that is too simple asolution in the real world. Joe & co has it been considered ?

@190 Sovereignty disputes rarely end with a declaration of independence. You can see with Japan & Korea still bashing on about who owns which islands, Guatemala claiming ALL of Belize, et cetera, et cetera. The Argentines claims are aligned with the desires of the remnants of the 1940s germanic peoples to expand and conquer. Suggesting you are legally independent is not going to prevent them, just as it didn't stop them post WWII.
Jan 20th, 2013 - 11:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0The only 'immediate' way to stop the Argentines is to either get Brazil to sit on them economically, or to defeat them in war so routinesly and so significantly that the pavlovian effect is to make them cringe at the idea of another war about the falklands.
... or just ignore them and wait for their society to implode.
@193 Thank you for your view. You are probably right and I should know better than to think Argentinawould takeany notice of any International law that didin't suit them. Just thougt it may put the rest of the world on side (again a niaive thought.)

Jan 20th, 2013 - 12:03 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I believe Ted is right full independence is the solution, the FIG need to make it clear at EVERY opportunity that full independence is the future goal, even if it doesn't happen for another 100+ years. It would help the islanders cause greatly. Most people don't realise its an option! As we all know without Britain in Argentina's sovereignty argument they don't have one.
@193 Shed-time
The FI is much higher profile than Belize, Argentina would have to drop their claim, they wouldn't have a choice. The other South American countries have nothing against the people of the FI and look forward to the day Argentina quits whining.

Jan 20th, 2013 - 12:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0One glaring flaw in this “paper” , It was written by an Argentinian so it follows that it must be a pack of lies from start to finish,

It, of course, starts with the usual BS about the Borgia Pope Alejandro “ceding ” the New World to Spain and Portugal and even establishing borders between the “territory” of each without having the authority so to do - not even by Divine Right.
@194 Not a naïve thought at all. The purpose of the referendum is to remind the stakeholders that this is a human issue, that people actually live on these islands and have done for longer than Argentina has existed. This isn't going to change a lot of minds in South America, because they're firmly in the belief that there is some kind of moral hierarchy amongst their nations, with Venezuela firmly seated at the top.
Jan 20th, 2013 - 12:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They all support Venezuela with regards to it demanding 2/3 of Guyana (as if no one lives there) and half of the Caribbean (as if no one lives there), they all support Argentina with its demands to own everything in the South Atlantic (as if no one lives there). Challenging the voice of Venezuela or its pet Argentina is unheard of in Latin america, as they prefer to look like they're political dead fish.
So, no... not naïve.
@195 They have nothing against the peoples of the Falkland islands, just as they have nothing against the people of Guyana or Belize... but if the belligerent power stole what it wanted, they'd essentially look to their leader Venezuela for moral guidance on what they should do.
Then the head of the Peruvian people would get more medals for supporting a war that was started by a junta that no one supported, even though they were all out in the streets in celebration and support. Hmm...
@196 The traditionalist viewpoint typically follows the 'history favours the winner' stand, the revisionist viewpoint typically follows the 'sore loser' standpoint, and the post-revisionist typically tries to find some kind of objective truth, with discussed biases of course.
My issue with the paper is simply that it is badly-written uncited dross. Whosoever wrote it has clearly never engaged in any kind of academic activity above the age of 16, as it would get a fail at GCSE

@190, Nah.... Being an internationally recognized independent state will not deter Argentina's fascist claims. It didn't work for Tibet, East Timor (naturally causing Indonesia to be sympathetic to its fellow failed invader), Cyprus, Kuwait (who we are told here was invaded by a country that is on equal moral footing w.r.t. victimhood as Poland in WW2, good one there TTT/Tobias/Nostradamus the 0th, keep that whataboutery going even to defend things that you pretend to oppose to give yourself an “edge”!) and all the various sundry and not so sundry border disputes that have existed since the founding of the UN (just to use a date-time stamp that is likewise internationally recognized). So many to chose from including quite a few in LATAM. Nor does any defacto state of independence help the ROC (Taiwan) from even getting full diplomatic status and don't get me started with either Israel or the PA which don't recognize even each others right to exist, let alone their respective allies.
Jan 20th, 2013 - 03:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No the only thing that's going to get AR off the FI's back is for a majority of Argentine to put in an adult and responsible government that understands that AR will be far better off with the FI as a prosperous neighbor, trading partner and a mutually collegial, if not 100% friendly neighbor, rather than a Emmanuel Goldstein to distract from domestic problems when things go pear-shaped at home whenever they need a two-minute hate.
What it WILL do is take them off the C24 list (and if it doesn't then the C24 isn't even the joke that it is now). And that's about it. And even there some of the idiot Campora and Malvanistas won't even recognize Commonwealth countries as sovereign -- so their Sudetenland will always belong to the Fatherland, and they promise, they will be nice to the “pirats” and “squatters” or whatever they call the untermensch who have lived there since before the pure and perfect Argentines were Argentine.

Your last line, that should have been aimed fairly and squarely at your president. I am sure, in fact, I am quite certain that the Falkland Islanders would LOVE to work in partnership with Argentina on such things as tourism and trade.
But your leader seems to want to hate a people that she has never even met, doesn't even recognise. So there can be agreements, no cultural exchange until she learns to live in peace with her next door neighbour.
@201 Seriously, you think that the Argentine president has taken time to discuss ways to partner with the FIG? You think they've sat down and discussed tourism?

David, queres presentar un caso de uti possidetis con el tratado Arana-Southern, el cual no tiene nada que ver con Malvinas, colocando a las islas como territorio de conquista, lo irónico es que según ustedes no es un botín de guerra, y solo basta remontarse a Parish que en 1831 al elevar la protesta formal a Guido habla de los derechos de soberanía de su majestad Británica.
¿Entendes el significado implícito de lo que estas citando?
Nada más ni nada menos estas diciendo que el titulo presentado por Gran Bretaña en la ocupación de las islas es simplemente la conquista y el uso de la fuerza sobre el vencido.
También me gustaría saber y dado que es el punto central de lo que planteas ¿que tiene que ver el conflicto que dio origen al bloqueo anglo-francés con las islas?
Porque las islas no fueron la causa o parte del bloqueo como ni siquiera estaban en manos argentinas para ser usurpadas por la infantería de marina británica en ese tiempo.
Estaban ocupadas por los británicos desde 1833 ¿o no?
Entonces…
¿Qué tratado de paz se firmo por la ocupación británica de las islas Malvinas?
Te recuerdo que ya el 17 de junio de ese año Manuel Moreno presento una protesta escrita en idioma ingles y francés, y otra el 29 de diciembre de 1834.
Vuelvo a preguntar ¿cuando se firmo un tratado por las islas?
Explica Rudolf Dolzer:
“Los británicos se fueron de las islas en 1774 y dejaron una placa diciendo que eran propias. Pero no regresaron hasta 1833 y recién hicieron su primer reclamo en 1828.
Los argentinos estaban entonces en el terreno, reclamando las islas jurídica y físicamente. Según la teoría del siglo XIX, estaba permitido el uso de la fuerza pero el hecho de que hayan dejado una placa, no les da derechos, sobre el territorio a los británicos, después de haberlo abandonado.

THE TRUE INCONTESTABLE ANSWER FOR THE MALVINAS-FALKLAND CAUSE.
Jan 20th, 2013 - 10:22 pm - Link - Report abuse 0This cause will have a true incontestable answer, the day that the u. k. decides to respect the resolutions from the u. n., and resume the negotiations with arg., in order to find a negotiated solution for this conflict, as the u. n. asks both nations.
The chair of the decolonizaton committee considered this refedendum like a politic ploy of the the u. k., so, i don't think it changes it's considerations regarding this cause, after the result of that so called referendum.
There is something that the islanders will have to understand someday, if the u. n has never asked the u. k. to return the islands to arg., and although that institution has never invoked the right to self determination for this cause, like it did for others colonial situations, or although the case has always been considered like a special colonial situation by the u. n., and never included the islanders as a third part of the conflict, due to all the resolutions just asked arg. and the u. k. to resume the negotiations in order to find a solution for this cause, in fact, if you get into the website of the u. n., you won't find any resolution which says, application of the right to self determination for the population from the malvinas-falkland islands, like there are for most cases of populations who live in territories which are non-self governing territories.
Despite all these considerations, if the u. n has never asked the u. k. to return the islands to arg., it means that in some way, the wishes of the islanders must be taken into account, and i have always supported it.
In fact, although the u. k. decides to resume the dialogue with arg. for the sovereignty of the islands, if the islanders manifest that they want to remain under british govt., arg. won't be able to force them to accept our sovereignty only. However it's not imposible to find a fair solution, like the secret proposal of 1974 that c. f. k. read before the u. n.

Sorry, Axel. Any proposals prior to 1982, “1974”, “secret” or otherwise, are no longer valid, and OFF THE TABLE.
Any offer of hand-off is WITHDRAWN, due to a change of circumstances - an invasion in 1982, and now a change of government that has stated that any negotiation MUST end in complete Argentine sovereignty over the Islands.
@234 why does it say 'true incontestable' before something that is neither true nor incontestable?
Jan 20th, 2013 - 10:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The decolonisation process is between the administering state and the administered territory. This process has got nothing to do with vulturous greedy hitlerist states wanting more land, and the whole decolonisation process was started by self-determination of peoples, and ends when the falkland islanders choose to be a BOT through 'free association' as laid out by the UN.
Any 'secret' proposals ended when you took negotiations to military action and started the highly popular War of Aggression in 1982. Losing this war meant that you lost any claims to the islands under international law.

Now you say that Arg will have to accept our wishes on this if there were any talks.
Please explain to me the POINT of any talks when we have already said we do not want any changes to our Sovereignty and you claim that Arg would have to accept this position anyway.
Can you explain to me whay the Arg Govt has refused to even reply to the offer made to it by the elected Islands Govt for both sides to sit and start to talk about peacefull possibilities and mending the mistrust on mutual subjects outside the Sovereignty issues.
As a logical means of calming issues and lowering temperatures.
Why has your Govt refused to acknowledge or reply to the offer?

Why would the the UK have to make any claim they enjoy possession. I ts whining, wanting Argentina that is the claimant. The burden was on Argentina to have instigated litigation. But opportunity is now lost to her through her own negligence. What are you talking about the dispute continued etc. Argentina after 1850 made no official claims until 1941, with possibly some muttering in 1884.
In his Message at the opening of the Argentine Congress on 1 May 1865, President Bartolomé Mitre said that Argentina had scrupulously fulfilled undertakings with Britain and France, so “there was nothing to prevent the consolidation of friendly relations between this country and those Governments.”6 If there had been a dispute between Britain and Argentina over the Falklands, there would have been something to prevent that consolidation.

Jan 22nd, 2013 - 03:29 am - Link - Report abuse 0In 1882 the Foreign Ministry of Argentina, and not of some other country, produced a map called the Latzina Map. It clearly shows the Falkland Islands as non-Argentine land by the fact that it was coloured without shaded relief of any features just as Chile was.
120,000 copies of this map were produced and some are still in existence now. They were distributed to Argentinean embassies around the world as part of the drive for immigrants.
Why is this map important? It was used by Chile at the ICJ to prove its claim to 3 Beagle Channel islands. The judges ruled in 1977 that one of the reasons they believed Chile was because of this map produced by the Argentinean government.
Please now try to unprove history. Your own government in 1882 clearly did not believe the Falklands were Argentine.

The proposal included the term “interests of the population of the Falkland Islands” and any outcome would require their agreement as it is quite obviousily a case of self determination, as in the UN charter. Britain negotiated, the falklanders considered and rejected the suggestion, as is their right. Do you think Argentina would be a good bet for the islanders? Certainly not then, certainly not now.
Argentina's territorial integrity is far far more important to 35.000.000 latinos in Argentina then the self determination of a vritish firm that stole all the cows Luis vernent and la fonte brought to Islas Malvinas Argentina, the vritish slaves are welcome to go back to UK and theft their own natural resources if that floating rock called UK, we invite the vritish to give the slaves self determination in UK with the northern Ireland as well, and end the occupation of northern Ireland as well.

Jan 22nd, 2013 - 06:36 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Interesting map that set me thinking. In 1882 those uncultivated lands (Patagonia, Tierra Del Fuego, Islas Malvinas) were collective possessions of the Provinces that made up the State of Argentina, is that not right? Sort of Argentinian Continental and Maritime Territories. Colonies if you will, which were decolonised by their incorporation into the Argentinian State. This was done through the creation of more Provinces spasmodically until completed in 1990 with the inclusion of TdF, the South Atlantic Islands and Antarctica in the Provincial fold. Until 1990 the Falkland Islands were a twice dispossessed colony of Argentina, I suppose. So Argentinian territorial integrity has been compromised since 1990. Prior to that it was an argument over the right to colonise a possession in the southern hemisphere between a southern hemisphere State and a northern hemisphere State. Pretty clear that being in the same hemisphere is the clinching argument for Argentina.

In charge of the National Bureau of Statistics? Yes from 1880 to 1916.
Know a lot about Argentine geography? Yes, he published:
Géographie de la Repúblique Argentine in 1890
L'agriculture et l'élevage dans la République Argentine also in 1889
Diccionario geográfico argentino in 1899
Suplemento al Diccionario geográfico argentino in 1908.
Does the map exist? Yes. Recognised by the UN actually.
http://untreaty.un.org/cod/riaa/cases/vol_XXI/53-264.pdf
Carefully read paragraphs 126-128.
Bernardo de Irigoyen, the Argentine Interior Minister ordered it drawn up. Latzina produced it and the Argentine government published it in 1833 as a pamphlet “The Argentine Republic as a field for European Immigration”.
It's inconvenience is now trying to be downplayed.
As the maps you linked showed:
1/ there are no terrain markings or features in the islands or Chile as opposed to Argentina
2/ the islands are not in the bottom left hand box entitled “Situacion de la República Argentina en la América del Sud”
3/ The islands themselves are called “Falkland Oriental” and “Falkland Occidental” and not “Isla Soledad” and “Isla Gran Malvina”
“Please note that them Islands are called “Islas Malvinas””
Common occurrence on maps to name any features in the language the map is produced in. The name “Océano Atlántico Austral” doesn't mean it is owned by Argentina. Calling Deutschland Germany on English maps does not denote territorial ownership. Weak!
“Please note that them Islands Malvinas are the same color as the rest of Patagonia”
Aah not. Get someone younger who doesn't need glasses to have a look at them again mate. Either way the original copies and not Internet copies are the clincher-I hear the colour in real life 'pops'. Weak!

What is so important about this map, is that this is the very map that played a significant role in the territorial dispute over the Beagle Channel Islands between Argentina and Chile.
In 1977 a court of arbitration consisting of judges from The International Court of Justice ruled that they belonged to Chile, pointing out that they are marked on the 1882 Latzina map as if they were outside Argentina.”

1) There are neither terrain markings or features at the north or south of the rio Chubut, where most of my Au placers are situated ;-)
2) Them Islands are not in the bottom left hand box entitled “Situacion de la República Argentina en la América del Sud”……... because they are covered by the above mentioned text-box.

Jan 23rd, 2013 - 09:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0Malvi, what your guy has actually done is to confirm the Pepper and Pascoe version of the map story, not contradict it.
In 1884, the Argentine Geographic Institute produced a NEW map as part of the claim to the Falklands it intended to 'revive'. The Latzina map cited by Anglotino dates from two years BEFORE that.
Your guy just attempts to skirt round the absence of the Falklands on the Latzina map by claiming that the the Latzina maps was not official, but does not deny the content or existence of the map. He even credits Latzina as being a member of the Argentine Geographical Institute, which is the official source of maps.
“Respecto al Sr. Ricardo Latzina, miembro del Instituto Geográfico Argentino al igual que miembro honorario de la “Royal Statistical Society” de Londres, realizó diversas publicaciones particulares
con resultados cartográficos “ambiguos” ”
Which is more or less exactly what P&P said.
Not that any of this matters much in 2013, but I do enjoy how you systematically post Argentine documents that undermine the Argentine case. Thus we have been able to confirm recently, and purely from Argentine sources, that :
- there was no claim to the Falklands before August 1829
- only the garrison was expelled in 1833
- Argentine maps did not include the Falklands until 1888.

Jan 24th, 2013 - 10:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Nice try at an arrogance. First you can't argue and secondly you aren't eloquent enough to beat me for arrogance so its fruitless to even try.
Fail!
We agree the map exists. There are plenty of the 9 page booklets with the 89x58cms map in existence. So let's concentrate on the “non-tampered map, [you] linked from Wikipedia”.
Your whole argument hinges on the colouring. So let's leave this aside, for as you argued, this can be altered and faked. I will accept this as a possibility.
Let's concentrate on the other features. The ones that can't be altered. The points you ignored.
Terrain Markings or Hachures:
Clearly limited to Argentina. You may concentrate on the paucity around the Rio Chubut but I am looking at the whole map. Chile has no hachures and neither do the Islands. By their very definition they are not accurate but they still clearly outline the ENTIRE Argentine coast including Isla de los Estados (at 534 km2 - 13% the size of East Falkland). No hills or coast outlined on the Falklands.
Naming or Exonyms and Endonym:
The islands are entitled Islas Malvinas, a case of an exonym. However the individual islands are entitled using Falkland, a case of an endonym and recognition that the islands were named by the British.
Marginalia and Insets:
You agree with me that the Islands are covered by the title in the inset. Interesting because it was possible to place this title in a manner so the Islands weren't covered. Along the top, to the left in the Pacific or even further to the right with an expansion of the entire inset to cover more of Chile. Countries don't delete parts of their territory in this manner.
Ignoring colour I could still easily make my point.
These are not the mistakes a country advertising itself around the world and trying to reclaim land lost 50 years earlier would make.
Thanks for your help. You are what is commonly called a “prop”, you just proved MY point.
I'm too disdainful to chuckle at you.

Sorry for my dely, but i had no time to check my i mails.
Accept it or not, the invasion of 1982 doesen't represent any end for this dispute, due to despite that war, the u. n has always continued calling arg. and the u. k. to resume the negotiations and find a solution.
Respecting the wishes of the islanders, the solution for this dispute can't depend mostly on their will, specially if the u. n has never included them as a third part of the conflict, if you don't believe what i say, just get into the website of the u. n. and you'll see that there is not any resolution which says, applicaton of the right to self determination for the population form the islands, while it is true that the islands are considered like a non-self governing territory, it is also true that this cause has always been considered like a special colonial situation, beside, the u. n has never invoked that right for this cause, like it did for others colonial situations. In fact, i recommend you to search in the news archive of this website, what the president from the decolonization committe said about that so called referendum, self determination etc, it's very interesting, the date s june 15th or 16th, 2012. If you don't agree with his analysis, sorry.
In the same way that i have always criticised the fact that our govt. doesn't include the govt. from the islands in the proposal of dialogue that it asks the u. k., the govt. from the islands is not acting correcty either, because it has never accepted to discuss about the sovereignty which is the main rpoblem. The secret proposal of 1974 was based basicly on a shared sovereignty, c. f. k. read them before the u. n. in june 14th 2012.
The day you learn to have intellectual honesty, in order to debate about politic and leave your hipocresy behind, you'll realise that actually the 3 parts arent' acting correctly, not just arg.
“Argentinean Sovereignty over the Malivinas is not negotiable. That is the starting point of negotiation.” (Dante Caputo, Argentine Foreign Minister, 13 November, 1983. Quoted in House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, 1983-4, Report, Vol. 2, p 149)

- the Secretary General of the UN does not believe Britain is in breach of any resolution.
-the president of the C24 is a stooge and an asshole.
- the secret proposal of 1974 was never a secret. It is no longer a practical option since the Argentine invasion of 1982, and the resulting 1000 deaths.

Jan 24th, 2013 - 07:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0All wrong Axel, in fact a complete load of drivel.
The only ones not acting correctly Axel, are the Argentine government & you.
You are an idiot.
continuing from @283 last sentence... (remind me never to comment from my iPad again, sheesh). ... but yes, the people who support you are effectively ideologically married shotgun-fashion to AR by accident of geography and LatAM familial ties, or have axes to grind against the UK or “north,” or have similar oppressive colonial sour grapes/aspirations. For the latter, just look to recent headlines for the perfect case in point: Indonesia, whose government, albeit just semiofficially, claims to have gotten over their failed barbaric occupation of East Timor, yet their impulse to stand on free people's necks live vicariously through AR's desire to do the same to the Falklands.
Jan 24th, 2013 - 07:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0281 axel arg: You, like most Argentinians, do not seem to be able to view actions in the context of their time.
Jan 24th, 2013 - 08:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The amount of times Deigo Garcia gets dragged into Falklands debates with cries of racism, but lo and behold, the British government were going to shit on the Falkland Islanders at around the same era.
In the UK attitudes change, and 2013 is not the same as 1974. While Argentinas government still acts as though it is the Imperialist 19th century, the UK government is clearly less authoritarian than 40 years ago.
The president from the decolonization committe's comments: Any decent human being would find his actions disgusting, so he has probably done the Falklanders a favour as long as they can get the video out into the wider media.

@ Sir Hans and Anglotino:
Jan 25th, 2013 - 02:06 am - Link - Report abuse 0The lighter color for the Falkland Islands may mean missing data or that Argentina is not in actual possession.
Anyway the map is not official.
At the time of an official map including islands, London protested:
Ortiz Response to Monson: “The Government of His Britannic Majesty should not find probable motive in this protest, since such inclusion does not alter the state have always been considered the Falklands, whose issue, as Your Excellency has had manifestármelo's deference, is pending and subject to the resolution of the governments.
Respuesta de Ortiz a Monson: ”El Gobierno de su Majestad Británica no debería hallar en esto motivo fundado de protesta, desde que esa inclusión no modifica en nada el estado en que siempre se han considerado las Malvinas, cuya cuestión, como Vuestra Excelencia ha tenido la deferencia de manifestármelo, se halla pendiente y sujeta a la solución de los Gobiernos.”
It seems strange that P & P shows a map and conceal the existence of the other map?

Jan 25th, 2013 - 09:21 am - Link - Report abuse 0I see. So :
- maps produced by the Argentine Geographic Institute in 1884 are 'official'
- maps produced by the Argentine Geographic Institute before 1884 are not 'official'
- but Think's map produced by one Curt Stiller in 1883 is 'official'
Is that it?
Alternatively, maybe your guy is dead right when he talks about 'cartográficos “ambiguos”' prior to 1884. (nice euphemism there)
But that would make P&P right too. Which brings us right back to the start again, as usual.

Jan 25th, 2013 - 10:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0Mate you are so far behind everyone else that you actually think you are the one in front.
So short version:
The map was produced by the Argentine government, is official and copies still exist.
So so hard to argue with physical evidence.

The Letzina map was correct enough for the ICJ to arbitrate in favour of Chile over Islas PNL!!!!!!!
United Kingdom history, Argentine style:
Jan 25th, 2013 - 11:34 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The United Kingdom has been united under Union Jack for thousands of years.
The Romans never invaded, they came to stay in the south as tourists.
The Anglo-Saxons never invaded, they werer also tourists.
East Anglia, Essex, Kent, Mercia, Northumbria, Sussex and Wessex were not separate states, but provinces in the United Kingdom.
Danelagen (the Danelaw) was a tourist resort.
The vikings never invaded, they came as tourists and Knud (Cnut) was kind of UK citizen even before he arrived.
The Norman conquest never happened, the Normans they came as tourists and William was also a kind of UK citizen even before he arrived.
Etc.

Before and after Laztina maps, exist Argentine maps including islands as Argentine.
Where is the resignation?
Again P & P are unmasked.
And the island people know the truth.
I hope to discuss these issues sometime, sharing a meal :-))

Jan 26th, 2013 - 09:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Who cares what some mouldy old maps say?
This has always been our land & it is now.
l have listened to your feeble evidence, malvinistas, & its mostly irrelevant.
You have no case & you know it.
Go & claim someone elses land if you want an empire.
There is nothing here for you.
So much wrangling over old maps and Vernet etc etc. The Falklanders have been there for many generations. They are having a referendum on thier status in March. Thats that and as for the rest of the BS foxtrot oscar

Maybe Pascoe and Pepper, who present false evidence.
“This has always been our land & it is now.”
I agree.
“There is nothing here for you.”
His words left me sad.
However, I have something for you:

@298 Troy Tempest,
Malvinense has been on here before, l could be wrong but l don't think that it's our Chubut Squatter, Think.
However l have noticed that Malvinense's English has vastly improved.
Maybe someone else is writing for him/her.
@299 Isolde
Jan 27th, 2013 - 05:17 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Ahhh, thx Isolde.
Monty69 had been telling Think off for making slimy advances - looked like a characteristic of his.
Now, the newly-eloquent Malvinese is doing the same thing.
I expect that these socially maladjusted trolls don't meet women often.
