    We need more Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen. Anything to get away from those detestable Europeans who think they are the bomb and are so precious, North America doesn't matter to us anyway, never did.

    Troll, I was at an enxhibition in Riyadh last week. There was a single Argentine exhibitor there compared to over 100 UK and 150 US exhibitors. Even Hungary had more to offer the Saudis. Don't get your hopes up.

    LOL! what are they going to export? Soy? That's the ONLY thing that Argentina/Brazil produces at a competitive price. Their beef and lamb are too overpriced, you can get better Aussie beef/lamb for the same price or cheaper. What is Saudi Arabia gonna do with soy? lol, more pipedreams from mercosur

    Why waste their time and our money on these superfluous trade meetings. We need no one!

    We have all we need right here. No more export, no more import. Chasing export dollars has created a soy republic. All diversification has gone, self-sufficiency destroyed. Our land is now a production unit, measured in yield and return, valued on what Asians will pay for our soy. Soy, the subsistence wage of a nation. In a race to the bottom with Paraguay and Brazil.

    We must fight real domestic problems like the crime wave in Mendoza:

    http://www.losandes.com.ar/policiales.asp

    Murder, assault, armed robbery, beatings, medical incompetence on a daily basis.

    Foreign criminals attack us from outside whilst implanted foreign populations attack from within. The US/EU/Asia /Africa / Mercosur will stop at nothing to destroy mighty Argentina, such is our significance to your way of life.

    This retard is so retarded he can't read:

    “En Godoy Cruz mataron a un muchacho de 18 años.”

    That's what we call murder here in Mendoza.

    “Dos ladrones sorprendieron a un hombre y a una mujer en el interior de su casa de Godoy Cruz y los golpearon fuertemente en la cabeza. Se alzaron con los 25 mil pesos más 800 dólares. ”

    Armed robbery.

    You were saying?

    So now we have the argies attempting to out graft the supreme grafters on the planet: the Arabs!

    You have got to laugh at this.

    And who will be the bag-lady this time: lovely Dilma no less. Just what the argies have got to bring to the table is somewhat obscure; is it negotiating powers, like Timmidman does at the UN? Or is it the sheer technical knowledge of how to run a piss-up in a brewery. Oh! Better scrap the last one: AND better to scrap the first one as well.

    AR oh! what a circus, oh! what a show all over again.

    Ha, ha, ha. I would say to the power googol, but the dummies don't understand that.

    @pope john (Toby) III

    You are both the same troll from Mendoza, with too login names, and now you are putting on a silly pantomime for us, like “Thinkedover”
    - how funny!!!

    I see you both agree on one thing, no matter how bad the crime or economy is in Argentina, it is always the fault of “foreigners”!!

    @7 Teen Troll Toby,
    “Foreign criminals attack us from outside whilst implanted foreign populations attack from within. The US/EU/Asia /Africa / Mercosur will stop at nothing to destroy mighty Argentina, such is our significance to your way of life.”

    “We need more Iran, Saudi Arabia, Yemen.”

    One Islamic theocracy, one absolute monarchy, and one poverty-stricken breeding ground for terrorists - Argentina will feel right at home.

    Saudi Arabia is an interesting country. Every time I go I am always amazed at how it is changing. One thing that doesn't change is the amazing hospitality of the Arabs as well as the impressive eye make-up of women wearing the Niqab (they can flirt like hell with you when they get the chance).

    Once thing the Saudis want is a top quality product or service. This is why Argentina will fail miserably. They have nothing the Saudis need or want.

    Another thing about the Saudi's, for the past decade or so, they have been planning for a post petro economy and that's a fact.
    Argentina is trying to develop one, they are planning for the end. I wonder who is correct?

    When will you EVER get anything right?

    The bombers do not think of themselves as Arabs: they are Mohammad’s (piss & shit be upon him) jihadists, fighting the infidel.

    Anyone who is not a Muslim has a stark choice as far as they are concerned: convert or be killed.

    The stupid bastard Blair did not understand this when he wanted all religions in the UK. Firstly there is no god, allah or whatever, secondly he will be killed with his harridan of a wife if ever his bodyguard fail him when he is in the Middle-East. They at last have realised he is nothing other than a self-serving hypocrite.

    Got it now?

    Chris, you are parroting bullocks.
    I know quite a few muslims. None of them have ever tried to make me convert, much less take my life.

    Don't come up with “it says in their book”. In the bible it also says we should kill homosexuals and those who cuts their hair (Leviticus)...

    Try looking at the Wahhabi sect of Islam, funded by the Saudis in the Arab Peninsula if you don’t know how far these zealots are prepared to go to re-establish the ‘original Mohamad (piss & shit be upon him) teachings.

    This is the original paedophile whoa t the age of 56 ‘married’ a six year old girl and returned when she was nine to consummate the marriage.

    I can see you know nothing of the real problems that Islamists will bring to the world.

    Yes, you may know some ‘nice’ Moslems, we all do. Unfortunately they are as naive as you.

    But heh, don’t believe me, what do I know?

    Ha, ha, ha.

    Chris Wahhabi's is the most strict . Even other Muslims gag at them.

    Stevie, perhaps you think marrying 8 years olds to a 50 year old fat pig is acceptable. You should see their legal system in action. You know absolutely shit if you think Islam has some of the most radical sects of any religion. How many Christian bishops do you see promoting killing? How many Rabbi's? But the Caliphs are not shy. But you can rationalize for them. Did you also dance in the streets when the WTC Towers came down with the Muslims?

    Not at all, the Saudi's aren't my friends.

    But you tell me, that lot are your biggest allies in the middle east.

    Muslims enforce their religion on others as much as Christian kill gay people.

    Why would I care about the World Trade Center? Do you care about the thousands of poor ones dying each and every day?

    Well that post proves you have lost the argument again doesn't it?

    Remember what you said to me recently (I will alter it very slightly to suit you exactly): Stevie, you need to read history otherwise you will look like a nutter and we both know you are better than that.

    You reap what you sow?

    Now spend as many minutes per dead in the Middle East, in Africa...

    So you befriend the most extreme muslim nation and then you point fingers at the more moderate muslim nations for being extremists...
