Apr 28th, 2014 - 09:25 am - Link - Report abuse 0The truth points to itself, They all have colonial ambitions for Antarctica & the position of the Falklands & South Georgia Islands would mean any claim they make would be greatly improved if they held the Islands.
It would seem that the UNGA, supported by Argentina, did not agree with him for in 1965 the UNGA adopted its resolution 2065 which stated that its resolution 1514 applied to the Falklands, meaning that it was a 'Colonial Situation' and had to be 'decolonised' in accordance with that resolution and the UN Charter. The only way that can be done is by letting the Islanders choose what political status that they want.

Apr 28th, 2014 - 11:15 am - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina belongs to it's indigenous people that the Spanish massacred . Therefore the Falklands can never belong to Argentina because it truly does not exist. Anyone who disputes this is living a lie. The Falkland Islands are British . Was discovered by the British. Tried to be occupied by the French who then sold what they never owned in the first place to Spain who then says they gave them to Argentina.
In my entire life I have never heard so much crap as has been posted on sections of mercopress in the past.
Our people have been living here peacefully for almost two hundred years and never once used death and destruction to achieve our existence. All Britain ever done regarding the Islands was to expel illegal Argentine soldiers who were posted here to stake their claim. They failed then because the civil world way back then recognised the dirty way in which the new South American conquistadors were trying to take all things in the southern hemisphere. They have been bitter ever since because that little Country called Great Britain had the initiative to stand up for sovereign rights and did so again in 1982.
Uruguay is a lost cause because they have no stomach to stand up to their dictating neighbours period.

Vasquez, who is most likely to be the new President had a very simple way of dealing with TMBOA last time he was Prseident: he ignored her, utterly and completely! Way to go or what?

And to think the British Isles ancestors is Italian, German, Scandanavian, French, Irish, Pictish. So what you really mean is the British are genetically a very diverse nation who, along with others have seeded and laid the foundations for the greatest nations in the known history of mankind to arise.
It must suck being Argentine and supporting the rule of the jungle, while the Anglosphere and our allies enjoy the fruits of rule of law.
It never ceases to amaze me how productive the Falkland Islanders, Americans, Canadians, Brits, Kiwis, Germans can be so productive when our populations are relatively small. I think it must be down to the Genes.
Fruit of pyramide thinking and creators of the most efficient way to turn a free man into a slave. Keeping 20% of the entire population living off the shoulders of the rest.

“Never confuse the people with this despicable Tupas communist bastards “government” NONE of whom finished big school, I have checked myself. Very shortly we will be rid of “No Money Pepe” and most of his illiterate and innumerate idiot “comrades”.
Danilo Astori: (accountant / ecomomist) no evidence of being Tupas.
Luis Almagro – Lawyer [the principal argie rent-boy] too young to be Tupas
Ricardo Ehrlich – Biochemist: no evidence of being Tupas
Mario Bergara – Economist: too young to be Tupas
Daniel Olesker – Economist; would have been doing his Masters in Economics in Belgium at the time.
Tabaré Aguerre – Agronomist; no evidence of being Tupas
Susana Muniz - Medicine, education: too young to be a Tupas
Eduardo Brenta – law: too young to be a Tupas
Roberto Kreimerman - Chemical engineer: too young to be a Tupas
Francisco Beltrame – Architect: probably too young but no evidence found of being Tupas
So NONE of those NOT a comrade of “No Money Pepe” (and therefore outside of my comment) have any evidence of being involved with the despicable Tupas, unless you know differently to me.
How do I KNOW that the Tupas who are presently in government did not finish “big” aka secondary education: they LEFT before finishing? I have many Uruguayo friends and a number of them are teachers and have access to the ministry of education records in their normal duty. The teachers are SEETHING with how they have been treated by “NO Monet Pepe” and I AGREE with them. The national body CHECKED the status of all the Old Tupas and they KNOW the truth, and they told me.
So my statement remains valid. If you had been on here for a while you would know that I do not lie, ever; I really do love Uruguay and I feel for the people who did not vote for this murdering commie bastard who is a despicable example to the children.
You can sit down now.

Apr 29th, 2014 - 10:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Actually, according to Wikipedia, Ehrlich WAS a Tupamaro:
”En 1966 ingresó a la facultad de Medicina donde se inició como militante del grupo guerrillero MLN (Movimiento de Liberación Nacional). En 1972 fue capturado acusado de pertenecer al MLN y participar en varias acciones guerrilleras y delitos tales como secuestros, robos y asesinatos, poco antes del golpe de estado de 1973.”
(In 1966 he entered the School of Medicine where he was initiated as a militant of the guerilla group MLN (National Liberation Movement). In 1972 he was captured and charged with belonging to the MLN and taking part in various guerilla actions and crimes such as kidnappings, theft and murders just before the 1973 coup d'etat.)
Not that it made any practical difference. He was a real cock-up as mayor of Montevideo despite his degrees. Almost as bad as the present one.
For the record, I'm another Uruguayan who does not agree with Menéndez' statement regarding the Falklands. In due course we'll have to apologise officially to the Falklanders. Menéndez is a very junior wart in the gov't. I'd never heard of him until a few days ago.

By the way. By far the vast majority of the Tupamaros were students, Chris. And no, many of them didn't finish their degrees. They chose to fight for their country, old man and many were made to flee. Unlike you, who fled by your own choice.
Did you see the latest FA Internas, old man?
MPP is the biggest party. Followed by the Astorian sector. The socialists get 5 %.
MPP signed an agreement with Sendic and PCU to give them 15 % of the electorate.
Second biggest within FA is the Astorian Group, with 14 %. They are declining.
MPP is rising.

Whilst I agree that one day Uruguay will HAVE to apologise to the Islanders for their despicable treatment it will never happen whilst the present bunch of idiots has anything to do with it. But of course, death comes to all of us and the sooner the better for this commie scum, educated or not.
Many people confuse being a good chess player to having intelligence; they are mistaken as most of the best chess players will admit: it’s the same with the likes of the Tupas. Whatever convinced them that a band of ragged arsed numb-nuts and failed students had the ability to run a country, even a small one like beautiful Uruguay, shows the poor level of intelligence that pervades all levels of the original organisation and for evidence of that you only have to look at Pepe, and of course, old Supa Tupas himself “No Free Energy” Stevie.
@ 46 “No Free Energy” Stevie
Of course the commies are expanding, they are buying the vote of the stupid poor who have never had it so good since Vasquez left and money was thrown at them by “No Money Pepe” who had to admit to the Judiciary recently that they were not being paid what was owed to them because he and the rest of the commie bastards had wasted it on the “poor” and a lot had been stolen by his mates, one of them his “bestist” mate no less! Who’d have thunk that? Anybody with a brain, actually.
So, basically, Uruguay is screwed.
“They chose to fight for their country, old man and many were made to flee. Unlike you, who fled by your own choice.” Don’t be so stupid FFS!
Nobody held a gun to their heads and told them to go, they RAN AWAY because they LOST and didn’t have the guts to see it through to the bitter end.

You are just an upset old man trying to justify your greed...
Just for the record. A recent poll among Uruguayan people showed that 80 % considered that Argentina was the less friendly country to Uruguay in South America. Uruguayans are fed up with Argentinean aggressive policies against our country. Most Uruguayans think that Argentina has not right to the Falkland Islands. Particularly because there is an Uruguayan island (Martín García) near the coast of Colonia that was occupied by Argentina by force and still is. Personally I believe that the closest historic relationship between any South American country and Port Stanley is with Montevideo. Note that the Southern half of East Falkland is called Lafonia for a Montevidean (Anglo-uruguayan) entrepreneur Samuel Lafone. During decades the main connection was with Montevideo. The present Uruguayan government is making a mistake taking the side of Argentina in this conflict. However, it must be considered that Uruguayans depend on Argentine tourism and investments and the government does not dare to offend them. This is unfortunate, because we are missing a good opportunity to enhance our relationship with the Falkland society and of course the United Kingdom. UK remains a very influential power worldwide. On the other hand, Argentina is not reciprocating, on the contrary, is doing whatever possible to harm us.

It's just that I have a much better opinion of the British as compared to the Argentines. I have absolutely no illusions about the latter as a nation, I know them too well.

LOL Stevie !!
You failed miserably, in fact laughably, to prove your point about dialects in Uruguay, though you insisted you lived there.
It was proven then, that you know nothing about daily life in current Uruguay.
Now, when offered a chance to redeem your credibility, you are running away and making feeble excuses.
Stevie - “Supa Tupa” ? No.
Stevie - lives in Uruguay ? No.
Stevie - credible ? No !!!
Nobody believes a word you say.
You are not the information authority on Uruguay, or the moral authority, or the “voice of the people”.
Simply - not credible.
Keep stabbing in the dark - it's all you can do - and now, we know it!!
Ja ja ja ja ja ja...

May 04th, 2014 - 08:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I am as credible to your ears as you ar e to mine.
Try countering my viewpoint and stop worrying about me.
If you need friends, move back home.
As if there ever was any point in making you old buggers understand anything. Teaching old dogs and that...
You don't know who I am, and I don't care who you are.
You don't know where I live, and I don't care where you live.
Only thing you know, is how to focus on the man when running out of arguments to back up your statements.
And know, I know it.
Jeje jeje je....

May 04th, 2014 - 10:48 pm - Link - Report abuse 0When the crux of your argument never amounts to more than “ that is how we Uruguayans feel” or“ I know this to be true because I live in Uruguay” or “ as an exiled Tupa, my opinion is... ” and when your statements run contrary to people who have proved they DO live in the region, your own lack of credibility means your arguments are worthless.
This guy is a nobody and paying the traditional lip service in the Malvinas issues to make Argentina less angry, pretty much like brazilians and chileans do.
May 05th, 2014 - 03:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Uruguay don't have to engage in a verbal war against Argentina and WILL NOT help them in anything more concrete than words.
People here seems to think that Mujica is a big fan of Cristine, Kirchnerism and Argentina. He is not.

May 05th, 2014 - 05:51 am - Link - Report abuse 0You are all a brunch of expats that in Uruguay even denies the public words of our President, saying he's not representative or just paying lip service.
If you say that about him, little does it matter where I am.
Heck, I could be the President of Uruguay and you'd still say I'd be paying lip service.
With that in mind, little does it matter what you believe in.
I'm glad you care though. I think it's quite cute...

Wait, did you actually say anything in that post?
People living in Uruguay are likely to know better than you.
“Stevie”,
At different times you have told us you are:
- an 80 yo SUPA TUPA exiled from Uruguay in the 70's
- a child of noble Tupa refugees, living in Europe
- a worker on an RSV who occasionally visits Uruguay
- and finally, a Uruguayan living near the border with Brazil
Your story is never consistent.
It's “cute ” that you like to play Pretend, but you are simply not telling the truth.
Your statements here, are worthless.
