    For real? Celebrating a bunch of idiots who hijacked a plane and were sent packing straight home? Someone should send Mr Moon a link to this news story, so he understands the 'mentality' of CFK and her ilk. Somehow though I suspect he's already aware.

    The rest of what CFK says here is her usual garbage.

    It's Saturday - Yay. It's Groundhog Day - Yawn.

    Nice to see the government of Argentina now celebrates “kidnapping, having war weapons, compromising peace and dignity of the Nation, criminal association, public intimidation, piracy and qualified robbery”.

    Fantastic policies for a better Argentina.....

    Yes, “we had nothing to do with the Junta” but “we're able to overthrow them on a whim after the defeat, and then blame them for everything conveniently” but we did support the 1966 “invasion” by a bunch of Peronist crackpots??

    Crikey!!

    “we want sovereignty but we want it peacefully”

    How about “No”, peacefully or otherwise.

    Possibly, but I think they actually had to use fire hoses to blast out all the argentinian human excrement not just from the post office either.

    In stanley, after they surrendered, basically, you couldnt tread anywhere off the road, without treading in argentinian excrement.

    It was awful.

    They support peace, meaning they can block shipping and trade, harrass businesses, but they don't use guns for that so that's peaceful? They didn't support the war, but issue coins celebrating it and drag out veterans of it at every opportunity. They celebrate human rights but only if you're not a native south american in which case their land is fair game. This woman doesn't make me laugh anymore, it's actual hatred.

    How thick and brainless is this woman, CFK, and for that matter, how thick and brainless are her supporters! Yes, you want peaceful dialogue while in the same breath you support the terrorist achievements of a group of miltitant Peronistas who thought it was a fabulous idea to hijack a commercial plane and force it to land in illegally in another country. And if that tremendous idea was not enough, these absolute lunatics had intentions of using their smuggled weopons against the Falklands Governor's residence. Yes, let's peaceful gestures....this alone is absolute golden evidence of the stupidity of the Argentine nation at present when its leadership can't see what fools they make of themselves and their nation.

    The Falkland Islands community may only be small population, but by God they look like absolute Einsteins when compared with the fools running the show in Argentina.

    Interestingly, even some Argentines, as evidenced by a young Argentine writer in a foreign publication, and articles written in the Buenos Aires Herald and Clarin in the last year, are starting to see the senselessness of CFK's campaign against the islanders. As for the rest of world, in the nations that really count, where the governments are competent and the people generally reasonably well educated, the Falklands referendum won't go unnoticed and it will be seen generally as a clear statement of the islanders rightfully expressing their democratic will as to what desire for their future in terms of governance. It's their choice, and their choice alone.

    As for UN groups like the Decolonisation Committee, led by a biased Ecuadorian, and including many freeloaders from basket case - like countries with axes to envious axes to grind against a first world nation in Britain, your credibility has been shot to pieces by your biased conduct in the last year, including not even visiting the Falklands to meet the islanders, despite the open invitation from their elected government.

    If CFK wants the Islands in peace then by god she is going the right way about it. Shipping blockades, Trade, Trying to stop our tourist business, Embargos on the development of oil. Lan Chile flights restrictions the list goes on and on. She and her government may try to tell us that they are not like the regime of 82 but tell me what is different because the attitude of the government is one of non recognition of a people who live on the islands because we have British Blood in most of us.

    Well let me tell you CFK we will never accept your government rule , your people or your false promises. Your Country has systematically tried to hold us hostages for the past 180 plus years and if you think that as a last ditch attempt to woe us you are making the biggest political mistake of your life.

    You know that the referendum is not going to go your way and you are now trying to portray your government as the nice guys.

    Mrs K wants peace. She's got peace, the presence of the British Garrison has guaranteed it for the past 30 years. Its presence will guarantee the peace for the next 30 years and long after that if it is necessary. There can be fewere tax £'s more well spent, than those spent on the defence of the islands.

    True, with their recent behaviour, refusal to recognise the human rights and dignity of the Islanders, they have achieved only one thing. That is to drive us, by us I mean the UK and the Islanders, farther away from ever getting any form of solution acceptable to both sides.

    They have created a giant political chasm and until they change their inherent behaviour, it is only going to get bigger. This of course suits us, because the farther you can stay away from them, the better and they are making it so, so easy!

    They need to realise, the islanders will never give away sovereignty, they need to settle for the next best thing, whatever that is? and they only way they will achieve that is with dialogue with the islanders.

    Where are all our argie malvinista trolls today?
    “Argentina claims again to the UK, in the presence of all provinces, government and opposition lawmakers, dialogue over the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands as the resolutions of the United Nations indicate,” NO!
    “She added that the Malvinas Argentine sovereignty and dialogue request is supported by Mercosur, Unasur and the 54 African countries, “the world is the one clamouring for dialogue” and continued “we’re not asking them to say we are right, but to sit and dialogue”. Which part of the word ”NO“ did you not understand?
    ”Insisting with dialogue the Argentine president said “we believe diplomacy is the only thing we have to defend peace” and highlighted that “yes, we want sovereignty over the Islands but we want it in peace”, a value no one talks about.“ Is there a war going on?
    ”And peace is important “because we had nothing to do with that dictatorship we Argentines suffered and endured and we all repudiate” and was involved in the military adventure in the Islands.“ That's alright then. WE British had nothing to do with anything that happened before World War 1.
    ”The Argentine president then went to add how was it possible that UK authorities could sit down and have a dialogue with those guilty of genocide, “but refuse to talk to democratic governments elected by the people and that have made the defence of human rights their banner?” WE weren't busy that day so WE thought we'd have a laugh. And WE don't recognise you as democratic.
    There will be NO “dialogue” about the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands. The UK is holding the Islands in trust for the Islanders. After the referendum, the Islanders may wish to talk about their future. WE will listen. As it happens, Britain cannot discuss sovereignty because the Falkland Islands ARE sovereign. The Falkland Islands Government exercises de facto administrative control. That's IT!

    Lets see what 'peace' means. At the moment it means a tide of hostile rhetoric from Argentinean politicians and people. A blockade of the Falklands by sea and air. Harrassment of defenceless pensioner cruise ship passengers by aggressive Argentinean thugs when they set foot in Argentina. Going around the world trying to stir up trouble with other pariah nations and failed states by telling bare faced lies about well documented British sovereignty. A foreign Minister making a false propaganda visit to England where he refused to meet our Foreign Minister and Islanders representatives, and then lying about it.
    I am left wondering what sort of stunt the TVs will try to pull on referendum weekend. Something like planting an Argentinean flag on the islands perhaps. Better have a hunter killer on hand to sink their sub I think... Better to capture it and scuttle it and send the crew back to Arg I think. Astute class... Heads up!

    With refrence to Marcos. Thats's me, he once guided me to a Daily Telegraph link, there I read the same a poster, writing the same pro Argentine rhetoric, in the same style of English language and posted with the same name. That led me to believe and I still believe, that the Marcos Alejandro on this site and the Marcos Alejandro on that site, are one and the same. A Hypocrite. weather nice today Marcos, isn't it?

    Just watched a news piece about the UK defence cuts. Colonel Bob Stewart MP was commenting on it. Now there's a man. Remember him. he was the CO of the 1st Chesires in Bosnia. I remember seeing him on the news, walking up to the Serbian Militia and telling them in no uncertain term, if they killed any more muslim civilians he would order his soldiers to kill them. At a time when the UN, useless shits! stood by and watched them murder innocent men, women and children, afraid to stop a genocide! A real British officer stepped forward and marked their cards for them.

    Fast forward, Sierra Leone, mass mutilations by gangs of thugs running wild, children with hands cut off, women raped and murdered. An officer with balls enough to set the Paras loose against them, doing what was right against political orders, now look at the place. People living in freedom, no more gangs of thugs, no more mutilations. Defy these RG dickheads, to find a single law abiding Sierra Leonean who supports them. That officer, later became the head of the army. Someone has common sense!

    And these fuckers, have the bare faced cheek to call us Imperialists!

    I actually and I am being serious, for sorry some of those men, not all, just those who had no choice in being there. The war I mean, not the cemetary.

    It is an awful thing to be killed in a war, It is even more awful to be killed in a war, that never needed to take place. When I say this, I talk about the Argentine dead, not ours. Our men were killed in a fight to liberate people, theirs were killed in a war to subjugate them, though I doubt that their young men saw it this way.

    There is absolutely no reason at all why these men should not be given back their name, “ their name,” that's what we are talking about here. It might not mean much to to TMBOA Argentina, but I am willing bet, if these young men knew they were going to be denied that right, for a political reason, they would have thought twice about fighting. Christ, if you have no name? What are you? your less than nothing.

    I worked in the law enforcement for nearly 40 years, I remember, when saliva and body secretions would only give you a blood group, nothing more. I have seen first hand how DNA has developed. to be a tool for good.

    We should sample these these men, ensure continuity of the deceaed and send the samples to the RG's. Keep copies, now isn't that f....ing sad. If they want to ignore them, they are even bigger cnuts than I took for and that's saying something!

There they are Argentina. do you want them or not, we have behaved with humanity. There are the names of your dead.

    Imaigine it. The identity of these young men, sitting on a shelf in a Lab in Switzerland and all that stands between them, their, parents, wife, children and siblings, is their own damn nationalistic politics.

    If you're going to exhume the dead to take DNA samples, then you might as well go the whole hog and sent the bodies back to Argentina. Flags over the coffins, full military escort, the whole hog.

    If Argentina refuses to accept them, then they should be buried at sea, with full military honours.

    Then the Argies will have no excuse for ever visiting the Islands again.

    Or, we just sail into the Argentine port, and place the coffins on the dock. I mean, just how could they stop us from doing it?

    In the meantime we can plant a British flag in Patagonia, and declare that the Argentines stole it from us in an act of blatant colonialism.

    We have no proof of this, of course, but we could just follow their example and make something up.

    The way to resolve the Falklands dispute is for the following to occur:

    The United Nations removes the 10 British Overseas Territories from the “Decolonization” list after each votes to maintain the status quo.

    The British maintain a significant military presence on the islands

    The Mercosur states (especially Chile and Uruguay) recognise the potential profitability from the oil boom and see this trade as more important than pandering to Argentine rhetoric

    I have no doubt that there will be much more ignorant people, who will continue comparing the actual argentine govt. with the dictatorship.
    But the most pathetic of this situation, is that many of those people who accuse arg. of pretending just one outcome, are the same people who support the govt. from the islands, every time it's members manifest that they are disposed to discuss about different issues with arg., but not about the sovereignty, which is the main problem.
    Perhaps for all those hipocrites, that posture expressed by the govt. from the islands, doesn't mean that it's members pretend just one outcome. This situation makes me think that i wasn't wrong when i thought that the strong defence that these people make, respecting the right to self determination, is not more than the tipical hipocrite colonial caprice of the u. k.
    It's obvious that we have always wanted sovereignty over the islands, bu the only one way to achieve it, is by mean a dialogue and in peace.
    Anway, it's obvious also the fact that the u. k. will continue with i't s hipocrite argument, respecting the applicaton of the right to self determination for this cause, which has never been applied for this case by the u. n.
    If this cause had been a question of self determination, the u. n. would have invoked that principle many years ago, like it did for others colonial situations. However, although many people in this forum prefer invaliding it, this cause has always been considered like a special colonial situation by the decolonization committe.
    As i said in different oportunities, everybody have right to think whatever, but there is nothing more imporant than the facts.
    On the other hand, it's important to signalize that if none of the two nations proposed to take this question to the i. c. j., is because perhaps neather arg., nor the u. k., are sure of getting a positive outcome for this dispute.

    @102 Wise words at the end of your post; special indeed. This is, after all, a struggle over which State has the responsibility to decolonise the Falkland Islands in the absence of a pre-colonial native population. Both sides are equally damned as colonial powers. Unless the Islanders declare unilateral independence only integration into a UN member state will solve the decolonisation problem. Argentina currently offers this option, UK does not. The lesson is obvious; the Islanders must vote No on 10/11 March and then challenge the UK to integrate the Islands into the UK duly followed by agreement to negotiated devolution.

    Firstly, why do you think it is that Britain does not compare Angel Merkels government with the Nazis, or even Berlusconi with Mussolini, or Putins with Stalin??

    Why is it that Britain doesn't consider Hollande to be Napoleon or perhaps compare Japan's leadership with Hirohito?

    Why is this comparison spared only for Argentina and the Junta? Why is this “ignorant stance” taken?

    Let me explain,

    At no point has Frau Merkel suggested that perhaps the Sudetenland should be “peacefully” annexed to Germany, at no point has she claimed that Poland and Holland would look nice with a Swastika map.

    I don't recall Monsieur Hollande suggesting that perhaps Belgium should really be French or Northern Spain would look nice with a tricolour.

    Japan has not requested that Singapore be “returned to it” or maybe large chunks of China be annexed.

    Mr Putin isn't (as far as we know) suggesting Hungary and the Czech Republic are really part of a “Soviet Union”.

    You see, none of Merkel, Hollande, Putin et al were members of the various regimes in their countries past, but none are so ready to suggest that their countries don't have responsibility...only YOU!!

    Only Argentina has the gobsmacking retardation to start a war, causing the loss of nearly 1000 lives, and then say, “it wasn't me, it was the other lot, can we have what we fighting over anyway!!!”

    If you are too “ignorant” to see that...then there is no help for you.

    As far as self-determination is concerned, why have 8 of the 10 remaining UK territories on the list with no sovereignty disputes not been removed then??

    It has nothing to do with the sovereignty, it has to with the population size. How the heck could Pitcairn with 70 odd inhabitants be an independent state?

    you say that your wish for sovereignty can only be achieved through dialogue and peace...utter crap Axel.

    Try this...go into your local bank on Monday and ask for $1bn USD. When they say No, ask for dialogue. See how long it takes to get the cash.

    “this cause has always been considered like a special colonial situation by the decolonization committe.”
    Doesn't matter what they want, they are only invested with the power of issuing advisements.
    What ever other legal rights of sovereignty the UK could rely on , probably the most significant was Argentines loss of claim through extinct prescription , by 1982. Argentines failure to place her claim before a competent court has ceded her claim to the UK. As a result there is no legal impediment to the islanders right to self-determination. This is further borne out by Argentine failure to legally challenge the referendum, which gives rise to tacit acceptance by her acquiescence.

    If RGland ever invades us again I'll be one of the first to sign up to the FIDF (Falkland Islands Defence Force) ready to defend my home. I might be killed but you can be damn sure I'll take loads of the RG so-called soldiers with me! Sorry RGland but you never owned us and you never will. Even if the UK did lose interest in us, we will never lose interest in our own self preservation. The fact that it would be political suicide for any government of the UK to turn their backs on the Falklands only helps our cause. Defence of the Falklands costs less than 2% of the MOD budget, I think we're safe from any cuts. Add that to the fact that the RG Navy keeps sinking in its own harbours or breaking down and being impounded, I think we are safe :)

    To Obileira, and the rest of our Argentine trolls, keep trolling and keep embarrassing both yourselves and your nation in the eyes of the world. Your country has become an economic joke....a story in how not to run an economy and a nation...to think once back in the early 1900's you ranked alongside our nation, Australia as one of the world's leading economies. What happened....oh that's right, you became more hostile to British interests in your nation and decended into absolute chaos from the 1930's, leading to military coups and general instability, ultimately resulting in the rise of a fascist inspired leader in Juan Domingo Peron...a man who when stationed in Italy in 1939 as a military observer, was impressed by the nationalism of the fascists. Returning to Argentina, Peron involved himself deeply in a secret military organisation, the the Grupo Obra de Unification, who were composed of young military staff bent on remodeling Argentina's political system along the lines of those in Germany and Italy. And so the story continues with another populist-style Peronist leader in CFK, and little wonder the chaos continues as well.

    Keep beating your nationalist drum, but even many thinking Argentines are dismayed by the state of affairs in Argentina these days, although they are made feel a lot of intimidation when they do go out to protest against your hopeless government. Your more independent media like Clarin are under attack, as are the more rational and independent members of your judiciary....Argentina is becoming not exactly a good example of a democratic state at all.

    And you seriously expect the Falkland Islanders or their protectors, the Britsih, to sit down with your government to negotiate the islanders future. Argentine Trolls, one and all, hang your heads in shame, you not only offend the Falklanders, you offend anyone who believes in natural justice for one and all.

    @142 olibeira,
    You are living in fantasy land if you think we will hand OUR country over to a failed rogue state like Argentina.
    As Diddles rightly pointed out, in 1900 Argentina had one of the highest living standards in the world.
    Look at yourselves now:- one of the lowest outside of Africa.
    And you did it all by your little selves.
    You also have a reputation for violence, 1976-1982 where you murdered up to 30,000 of your OWN people?
    Plus you have had wars with ALL of your neighbours.
    btw- when are you going to give back the land that you stole from Paraguay in 1871?
    And you also stole Patagonia from the Amerindians, after killing most of them of course.
    lf you think for one minute that we would want to join you(& let you steal OUR oil), then you have rocks in your head.
    As you have no rights here, have never owned this land,(so you would lose the case if it went to court), the only way that you could gain OUR land would be by invasion.
    l don't like your chances, but please try anyway.
    So NO, olibeira, you will NEVER be able to “seize” OUR land.

    As a Brit who has never been to the islands or served in the armed forces I assume I must be the sort of Brit you think would happily give up on the islands if it was in my own interest? You would be greatly mistaken however. Even though the average Briton will never benefit directly from the FIs or its oil, indeed, even if it continues to cost everyone here a couple of pints a year in taxation in defence costs, Britain will not walk away. If you want to stir a deep emotion in the average Brit play them a tape of the radio coverage of the Falklands invasion in 82 where a massive military force invaded a tiny country and forced a young man at gunpoint to play the Argentine anthem over the radio. When Rex Hunt said that “Britain will be back” he spoke not only for the country but for all time. There would only be one thing that would cause Britain to leave and that would be if/when the islanders declare full independence. In fact, even if the islanders one day chose to join Argentina (don't hold your breath) we would at least be proud that we had defended their right to choose freely.

    It is this fundamental misunderstanding of the British psyche that has bedevilled the Argentines for so long.

    When will you ever begin to get the message Argentina has no legitimate claim over the Islands just a lot of shouting because that is what Your government has always been good at.

    The Falkland Islanders are not telling you how it is because of Britain say so but because it is their home you are trying to take away. Your Country is a very greedy one and even prepared to stand on their own to achieve what they want.

    You and the vast majority of Argentine trouble makers have one thing in common that is you are all uneducated, brainwashed by the Nazism of your leaders. You have never learned how to love thy neighbour and until you start doing that you will always be at war with yourselves.

    The Falkland Islanders are not scared of you they have been very careful not to be seen as the aggressors and have only asked Great Britain to defend our rights to live as we choose. You know only to well that without military protection your government would invade us again and that is not something I am making up because unfortunately that is how your Country works.

    You should be very careful what you say when you make statements like the Islands will soon belong to Argentina because the only thing you are doing is driving a bigger wedge .

    I think you will find if push comes to real shove the free world will come out on our side to support our determination to live as we choose.
    Now answer me this question 102 axel arg (#)
    Would we not still be a colony wether Britain or Argentina had sovereignty over us. In the eyes of the world that is what you are saying decolonise so are you going to leave the Islands void of life.

    @169 You're right - that photo could scare a lot of grown men

    I think Nigel Heywood is right - it is time to stop pandering to the RG nonsense. Namely:

    1) The Argentinians have failed to prove their version of events in 1833. The British account holds up. Either our events are correct or they are British by virtue of conquest - as, of course, this is how Argentina got its territory so what'sthe difference? In any case, despite any clever semantics and sophistry, the Treaty of 1850 confirms the status quo

    2) The Islands are also British by prescription with no serious challenge for over ninety years

    3) The UN cannot rule on sovereignty as the dispute pre-dates 1945 - all it can do is suggest that the UK and Argentina sit down over a “nice cup of tea” and try and work together. The UK has made it clear that this will only happen with the consent of the islanders and with them present at the negotiations.

    4) For its part, Argentina has confused the word “dialogue” and actually demands (their favourite word) “monologue” - actually it should be a “trialogue”. Argentina has made it illegal to negotiate sovereignty as part of its constitution so any such negotiations would just be a one-way haranguing session.

    5) Argentina still has to explain how the hell it can claim sovereignty over S Georgia and the S Sandwich islands

    In short, we have to treat the RG claim as a joke and give it the contempt it deserves - our biggest mistake has been to take it seriously. Once the referendum has been held we should have a policy of no discussion with Argentina - pointing out that they missed their chance when Timerman was recently in London for the “empty chair” meeting. Stonewalling them would make them go away - even if it put SA against us. We should reward those countries that give practical help and make clear that our beef is with Argentina and its irrational behaviour only.

    “This discusión is , to put it politely , stupid ”.

    That depends on whether you mean the slanging match on Mercopress or the slanging match between the UK, Argentina and the Falklands governments. The slanging press on Mercopress is stupid and pointless because most threads deteriorate into gutter trash and none of it will make a difference to the eventual outcome of the dispute. The slanging match between our governments is all reactionary to Argentina's attempts to change the status quo and is far from stupid (unless you count CFK's initiation of it).

    “If the Argentine Government want the Falklands all they have to do is behave nicely to the people who live there.”

    You make it sound simple but you forget the islands aren't theirs. Of course they should behave nicely towards us but that won't make us give them our home.

    “Allow them to visit Argentina , make it easy for the young to attend British schools in Buenos Aires and the sick the British Hospital”

    There is nothing stopping us from visiting Argentina and nothing stopping Argentines from visiting the Falklands. I'm sure there wold also be nothing from stopping us from using their schools and hospitals if we wanted to but we don't want or need to. I visit Argentina most years and so do many of my friends. I have friends in Argentina who visit me in the Falklands most years.

    “Establish a regular air service between the two . Impossible with this Government I know but in time perhaps?”

    The CFK government wrote to the UK government offering a twice weekly air service last year. We told her we didn't want it. We would like the trusted and reliable LAN service to operate more often but Argentina refuses to give permission.

    @183 Joe

    I am always baffled by Argentina “giving permission” for the LAN flight. For sure they would need to give permission to overfly their territory (although usually only pariah states like Iran and N Korea usually deny access to their airspace) but using a larger plane like an Airbus A319, it could fly around the southern tip - even if it made the flight more expensive and, therefore, needed to be subsidised by FIG (or even evertually run by FIG with all that luvverly oil revenue - if it happens)

    I guess the RG's need the service so that relatives of their '82 conflict fallen can visit the war memorial - hence the stop at Rio Gallegos once a month

    Just curious?

    Like you say, there are ways around it from a flight permission point of view. About 3 different ways in fact but if we did that Argentina would simply put commercial pressure on LAN. They do a lot more business in Argentina than they do with us.

    The stop once a month in Argentina is just a political stunt that Argentina pays for. Sure that's where next of kin visitors get on but only a few times per year. The rest of the time the flight picks up and drops off nobody bar the odd Argie or visitor who actually wants to go that way. Many flights throughout the year do no business with that stop (apart from Argentina paying for it to happen each month). It currently costs Argentina about 10 times the amount it would cost them if they simply flew the NOK pax to the Falklands via Chile twice per year. An essential service for their people or a political stunt?

    I've thought about this before too, and I don't even think diverting the flight path down over cape horn would add much to the fuel bill.

    How does the airspace work there at the entrance to the Magellan straight even?

    It looks like that area has to be 'shared' airspace. Look how close the Chilean border actually is to the Atlantic.

    I'm not sure argentina even have the authority to stop Chilean aircraft using that particular piece of airspace.

    There is no doubt that there are ways to do it keeping compliant with international air law but finding a carrier who'll want to go that route (I don't mean air route) is another matter. We don't want the LAN service to end but we have alternatives if needs must and those alternative options are expanding as other developments in the region make them possible.

    Besides, they won't dare invade (assuming the had the capability to get to the Islands, which they don't) because of all the nuclear submarines that the UK apparently has tooling around the South Atlantic. It must be true, the Argies said they were there. ;D

    KELPER ABOUT. TERENCE HILL.
    Kelper: As i tod you in another comment, if you think that just our politicians omit information before the u. n., or before any other international forum, then it means that you have been perfectly indoctrinated by your so loved british empire.
    Our claim is not a colonial ambition, like many of you love repeating all the time. I already told you in another comment what are the bases of our claim, and why i think that perhaps the u. k. had right to occupy the islands in virtue of some relevant facts. However, if the u. k. deprived arg. of exercising it's rights over the islands, instead of negotiating a solution with our country, then you can't compare our claim with a colonial ambition.
    Accept it or not, this case is much more complicated than the tipical ignorant and mediocre comments that many of you usually express.
    C. f. k. read last year at the u. n., a secret proposal treated between both nations in 1974, which took into account the wishes of the islanders of remaining under british govt., and argentina's rights. Maybe it's time to reconsider a proposal like that one of 1974, which respects the wishes and the rights of both nations, not just your's.
    Terence: It's hightly arguabe to say that prescription should be applied for this cause. I already told you this in another comment. Despite the intervalls in our claim, the u. k. tried to find a solution with arg. in 1968, 1974 and in 1980. So, if the u. k. tried to negotiated with arg., it's very arguable to express that prescription should be applied for this case.
    On the other hand, it would be honest to take into account the huge economic dependence that arg. had with the u. k. during XIX century, and for more than 100 years, so, it was obvious that it wasn't in conditions for claiming the empire for it's rights over the islands, don't you think?. Beside, don't forget about the proposals of arbitration that both countries manifested in different moments.

    It doesn't matter about the UN resolutions as there is no legal power of enforcement, they are merely advisements. Nor does it matter about prior negotiations they would be inadmissible in a court hearing as privileged information. What is of critical importance is who holds the legal sovereignty, because that is legal mountain that no power on earth can change. Argentina has ceded the Islands to UK under the doctrine of extinct prescription, many years ago through her own neglect. You can tell me your opinion all you want, it's meaningless as you are not an expert.

    TERENCE HILL.
    This is evident that you dont' want to analyse this question seriouslly.
    If you think that because you have the opinions of two experts, you have the definitive answer for this dispute, let me tell you are very wrong.
    If we make a serious and deep analysis of this question, we can't ignore that the application of prescription is very arguable.
    I already told you in anoher comment what are the the conditions, according to the international right in order to invoke the principle of prescription.
    On the other hand, if arg. lost it's rights over the isands, like you say in your comments, because of it's intervalls in it's claims, then why did'nt the u. k. include the malvinas-falklands in the proposal of arbitration in 1947?, why did it try to negotiate with arg. with the purpose of finding a solution for this conflict in 1968, 1974 and 1980?, why none of the two nations proposed again to take the dispute to the i. c. j after 1947?.
    I respect your opinion, but i really dont agree on your analysis. Everybody have right to think whatever they want, but the facts are much more important than our opinions, and they show that beyond everybody's expressions, this is evident that the case has strong and weak aspects for both nations.
    The only one positive aspects of your comments, is that unless you aren't reactionary, like so many people in this forum who just insult deliberatly, or make such decadent analysis, that's why i never answer their comments, i have already wasted a lot of time with those mediocre people, and i could never get any interesting interchange of opinions.

    I post the opinion of two experts , plus a former president of the ICJ. You dismiss their findings out of hand, but you don't offer a counter view from a recognized authority. Your previous post was about the application of acquisitive prescription, not extinctive prescription, apples and oranges.

    Extinctive prescription applies to Argentine failure to make a claim to an appropriate legal tribunal post 1920, not before that date. Here is an expert legal opinion as to why UK filed only the Dependancies and not the Islands with the ICJ.

    'It is reasonable to assume that Great Britain acquired definitive title (1947) to the Islands at this time.176
    176 As Great Britain rightly could consider that it had acquired title to the Islands by the mode of extinctive prescription, it had no need to file a brief concerning the Islands. It was concerned about Argentina and Chile acquiring title by prescription to the Islands Dependencies; therefore, Great Britain took the necessary action to stop the maturing of title by filing the application with the International Court of Justice.
    The Falklands (Malvinas) Islands: An International Law Analysis of the Dispute Between Argentina and Great Britain by James Francis Gravelle.

    The UK attempted to negotiate a settlement with Argentina not because they didn't hold sovereignty, but the prevailing view of one of the main political parties was to divest the UK of it's empire. I think the UK knows it absolutely holds sovereignty, so it doesn't have to do anything, because nothing can be legally changed.

    The UK is in recession.

    Argentina is growing.

    Argentina will take those islands by force if needed.

    The UK will be defeated anyway.

    So just don't dream and face the facts.

    Go Argentina.

    It is to be expected that CFK would naively want to appropriate the Falkland Islands “peacefully”. She knows full well that any other way would lead to another wholesale bollocking and the replay of the embarrassment of a public thrashing of argentina. Anyway, they'd have to get past the hordes of debt collectors first. Then there's the problem of the clapped out argentine navy.........................

    “Argentina will take those islands by force if needed”

    That's the funniest thing I've heard all day. LMFAO

    Saying something and having the capacity to do something are too completely different things.

    Argentina is militarily impotent, and the whole world knows it. That's why your President 1st tried to get the British to remove our military protection (like anyone with half a brain would've done that) because it's far easier to invade somewhere that isn't defended.

    When that 'cunning' plan didn't work, she tried economic terrorism against the Islands, which...quite frankly didn't work. Now she's going for the 'All I want is peace, and to talk,' strategy, which even a blind man can see through, since she has been given the chance to talk over and over and over, with the only people who can decide the future of the Falkland Islands: the Islanders themselves. The moment she refused, the world look on and thought: 'so she doesn't really want to talk at all.'

    Like so many times, the moment your President opens her mouth, she just embarrasses Argentina further on the international stage. The world thinks Argentina is a joke, and don't take anything your government say seriously.

    And the final nail in her coffin, was when she sold out her own people to get into bed with the Iranians, the people responsible for the deaths of 85 Argentine citizens, and the wounding of many more.

    Like your impotent statements, your government, is a joke.

    I already answer you about extinctive prescription in another comment. On the other hand, in my investigation i have opinions of different professors of international right, that's why i think that what you say is very arguable. After i finish cheking my survey, i will send it to you by i mail. I have to chek it again.

    @245 Axel

    You say, “in my investigation i have opinions of different professors of international right.”

    Yet Terrance has provided links to his evidence as proof. You just make statements and say you have opinions of different professors, yet you fail to provide any information regarding these people, not even their names, and no links to a website where their 'opinion' can be read independently.

    Now academically failure to back up a statement with evidence would be seen as a big 'fail'. Legally failure to back up a statement with evidence would be seen as inadmissible.

    So come on Axel, where is your proof that these 'professors' said this. No evidence means that your 'argument' is just your opinion, and while you have the right to your own opinion, it would never stand up in a court of law, or at the UN or anywhere except your mind.

    So answer Terrance by providing links to your professors who 'back up' your spurious claims to the Falkland Islands.

    Failure to do so, means that you are telling porkie pies.

I think i'll finish it for april. When all the work is done, i'll type my i mail adress in some of my comments, and everybody will write me, so i send them my work, including you.

    You can open a separate temporary email address then cancel it after receiving Axel's useless “survey” if you're really interested.
    My kids have opened such an address for me in the past.
    l don't know how to do it!
    Also there is another way of having your IP address “piggybacked” onto another address, so that your location cannot be traced.
    l admit that the method is beyond me, but any good IT person could do it for you.
    Personally l couldn't give a rat's arse about Axel's “survey”!
    lf its anything like his ridiculous ravings then it won't be worth reading anyway!

    “We want sovereignty over the Malvinas, but in peace”, Cristina Fernandez tells Congress

    So she says today........ and then tomorrow she will change her mind and say something different. There is absolutely no trust in that woman at all.

    And unless the Falkland Islanders themselves have VERY short memories ( and I bet that they don't ) they can all remember what Argentina's idea of “peaceful sovereignty” amounts too. So I just bet that they are not buying it either.....

    @252 - axel

    A survey is based on peoples opinions, it is not evidence of anything BUT their opinions. So sending your opinion...er survey is meaningless.

    You said that you had Professors who had opinions. Well opinions are nice, but they are not evidence. So unless those Professors have evidence (some research) to back up their opinions you survey is meaningless.

    So in order for the opinions of your Professors to hold any weight, you should provide their names, their occupations, and link any research that they have done that would support their opinion.

    Otherwise your 'survey' is a chocolate teapot. Nice to look at, but no use for the purpose for which it was designed.

    Axel. Go back to drawing board. Must try harder next time.

    LOL, BK, do ALL your posts start that way??

    Otherwise, another completely empty post from you, to round off the thread.

    Are you so lazy, or so disdainful of the Islanders, that you cannot be bothered to even attempt to argue the points in the thread?
    Not that I blame you, as the Argentine position is usually very obviously, indefensible.

    However, your pattern, regardless of the subject, is to:
    1) PRAISE CFK (optional to call her “beautiful, lovely, radiant, gifted, wise” etc.)
    2) praise her actions/position or those of her government/particular minister as correct or morally correct, for the same of the people/economy/ islanders/ British, whatever.

    BTW, - what “democratic credentials”????

    LOL!!!!
