UNASUR doesn't seem to be getting much traction with 1/3 of its leaders absent. I had high hopes when it started but it is mostly a talking shop with little concrete actions.
Aug 31st, 2013 - 12:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0However it might just take some time to develop as it is a natural union for economic and political reasons.
Hopefully, SA can evolve into a mature economic trade alliance

Aug 31st, 2013 - 02:59 am - Link - Report abuse 0Family together again.... after the undemocratic forces of Paraguay were shown the door.....
By the way....:
Unanimous condemnation from UNASUR of any military action against Syria OUTSIDE the realms of the UN by the way....
Zhe English could learn a couple of things from us after their illegal and undemocratic interventions in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya....
Can anyone understand the point Think is trying to make? As far as I know there has been no military action against Syria.
Aug 31st, 2013 - 04:03 am - Link - Report abuse 0Though you have to wonder exactly what impact a unanimous condemnation from UNASUR would have..... anywhere really.
Though I do wonder if Venezuela's support of FARC and protection of them on Venezuelan soil could be considered a military action against a so-called UNASUR family member?
I suppose zhe arhentineeeans could learn a couple for things from us after their illegal and undemocratic invasion of the Falkland Islands. What did the UN say about that again?
Getting the Pa and the VE leaders to talk is no more a meeting of minds than was the Israeli and 'Palestinians' meeting at Camp David.
Aug 31st, 2013 - 05:35 am - Link - Report abuse 0... polite discourse but absolute abhorance
(a bit like one sometimes feels when picking up the challenge of Think's purposeful vitriol; #4).
@3 When? Another hundred years? They haven't evolved into anything mature in the last two hundred years. I wouldn't hope for anything mature in the next five hundred years. How could you hope for maturity from the likes of CFK, Rousseff, Mujica, Correa, Morales or Correa?
Aug 31st, 2013 - 06:57 am - Link - Report abuse 0@4 And here's the latest lie - Family together again.... after the undemocratic forces of Paraguay were shown the door.....
Unanimous condemnation from UNASUR of any military action against Syria OUTSIDE the realms of the UN by the way What a joke. Anybody seen any member of unasur doing anything for the world? Or any part of it? Selfish, self-serving gits.
@5 I suppose zhe arhentineeeans could learn a couple for things from us after their illegal and undemocratic invasion of the Falkland Islands. What did the UN say about that again? It told ze monkeys to put down their weapons and get off ze islands. I'm reminded of the gorillas in Planet of the Apes. Big on belligerency, short on brain. I think they've now reached the point where they can only afford one!

How is Iraq today, decades after the Anglo military intervention?
How is Afghanistan today, after years of Anglo military intervention?
How is Libya today, many months after the Anglo military intervention?
How will Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya fare many years from now thanks to the Anglo military invasion?
@8 How is argieland today, centuries after the Spanish invasion and conquest? Most of the indigenous people, the legitimate owners of the land, have been murdered and their possessions stolen. Even today, they continue to be persecuted and murdered as a matter of state policy. There is more than one reason for identifying argie scum as war criminals. They can't even Think!

I see Her Haughtiness, La Think aka The Bitter And Twisted Old Twat Of Chew Butt is desperately seeking someone, anyone, to “pick up the challenge”.
Aug 31st, 2013 - 05:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The real problem of course is that the “challenge” is anything but the pitiful ranting of an old deluded whatever it “Thinks” its “country” is. Argie, Swede (my preference), Norwegian, Chilean, take your pick.
He really is a pathetic creature.
