    This woman is an insult to the real victims of terrorism, linking their pain and grief, to her financial mismanagement goes beyond the bounds and rules of all decency.

    When Argentina issued the bonds it swore not to use soveriegn immunity and issued bonds under New York law
    then did the exact opposite I don,t know what that,s called in Spanish but in English that,s a DEFAULT.

    “The vulture funds threaten and attack with actions against our country's economy, causing rumors, mistruths and outright lies,” she told the organization. “It is almost a type of economic and financial terrorism”...

    So now she must know how the people of the Falkland Islands feel.
    Rumors, mistruths and outright lies are exactly the things Argentina says to back up their False sovereignty claims .

    Economic and financial terrorism...
    By causing disputation to cruise ships visiting Argentina and the Falklands.
    Her words should be repeated with regards the Falkland islands.

    @5 Especially as she was up there not long after Obama gave a very serious and compelling speech about the very real terrorist threat to the civilised world. ISIS is a threat to everyone that does not adopt their brand of extremism. It is a problem for the world to deal with.

    And then CFK starts whining about Argentina having to pay back the money they spent.

    Excellent speech in the security council. Better than in the general.
    Arg did vote a resolution of foreigners joinning IS, what to do to change that. There are a lot of your own people fighting for IS, after all they are both violent, there is no difference, both (IS and the coalition) kill and contribute to multiply violence.
    And she says what everybody thinks, but not much people and countries have the animosity to say.

    Some interesting and fun Argentine economic news.

    http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-24/argentine-economy-stalled-in-second-quarter-on-dollar-shortage.html

    “On Sept. 18 the country’s lower house voted on a new law to limit prices of consumer goods and control profits. While supporters of the “supply law” hope it will protect consumers, some economists fear the measures will only exacerbate shortages and inflation.”

    http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-24/argentine-economy-stalled-in-second-quarter-on-dollar-shortage.html

    Taken from CFK's speech: “...although I don't know how to define profit because a judge in New York has given granted the possibility of making a 1.600% profit in five years”.

    CFK's “official” fortune, the one that she declared at the end of the 2013 fiscal year showed that it had increased 1.550% since 2003, which really makes her a “Vulture fund” all on her ownsome!!!!!!!

    Very interesting. Those new fighter jets may be just what they need to shore up their military and become a South American powerhouse. Those fighter jets are apparently so advanced that even the Japanese air force office staff can operate them with very little training.

    From what I could see there were two versions. Perhaps one for close air support and the other for long-range tactical missions.

    I can see FAA pilots salivating over these already - they are far more advanced and reliable compared to what they have now...

    @15

    ISIS is not interested in taking over South America. They want Europe because they want to finish what they couldn't in the 700s. And they want North America because those northamoans for way too long bomb and killed Arabs indiscriminately and for no reason but to protect their oil.

    We don't need to collaborate in any way with EUialand or NOrthAmoland on this issue. ISIS and muslim extremism is a peripheral minor issue in world affairs.

    CFK : ”Terrorists are not only those putting bombs; terrorists are also those who cause misery, poverty and hunger”.
    She accepts that people who place bombs are terrorists .
    Her government pays pensions to people who used to plant bombs .
    Therefore her government supports terrorism .
    Her government cause misery , poverty & hunger , therefore , she is a terrorist by her own definition .

    @60. And then what? You can go on your way. Any way or anywhere that doesn't affect Europe/North America. For instance, if you make another attempt on the Falkland Islands, South Georgia or the South Sandwich Islands, that affects us. If you keep conducting economic warfare on our territories, that affects us. If you attempt to progress your illegal 'claim' in Antarctica, that affects us. We would have to act! Can you learn to be honest? Argieland is part of mercosur. Regrettably, mercosur is trying to cut a deal with the EU. If it gets it and you aren't honest, we'll have to act. Who would you like to trade with? You trade with the US and Canada, Netherlands, Spain, Germany, Italy and the UK. Are you going to stop? Are you going to be honest? Here's a truism. Respect has to be earned. For 200 years, argieland has not justified any respect from the UK.
    @62. Good. I was worried there for a second.
    @66. It's fairly easy really. You're a smartass pillock without an iota of human sense or logic. And, of course, you're an xenophobe. Not to mention your historical and continuing genocide. You might suggest that Britain, in its various different forms, has gone around the world invading and conquering. So we did. And we were good at it. So did Italy. So did France. So did Spain. So did Portugal. So did Netherlands. Europe being the centre of the civilised world. You may hate that, but it's true. After all, both China and Japan were insular. If Spain hadn't gone around the world invading and conquering, there would be no argieland. How does it feel to live in a country created by invasion, conquest and genocide. And the EVIDENCE is there. The papal bull of 1493, the Treaty of Tordesillas, the statement of Roca. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conquest_of_the_Desert
    Not a lot of difference to what Hitler used to say. You say similar things. And you wonder that proper people are hostile?

    @73

    YOU, accusing me of xenophobia?

    That's the guffaw of the month, right after chichureo's “we Chileans are modest, and we are also superior to you” instant classic.

    You were good at conquering. And you think that's a redeemable quality? But thanks for reminding everyone that reads this why I contemn and vilipend EUIANS. You have never apologized!

    @74
    Nobody has to accuse you of being Xenophobic. You've stated repeatedly that you want foreigners out of your country, and that you want your country to eschew any connections with foreign countries, no matter their past connection to Argentina. Seems to me it is you who are providing the laugh here. ;)

    Financial institutions suggest the wide range of services to consumers today but some of them don’t act according to the law. Such activity brings huge harm to economy as well as to society. Financial institutions like http://personalmoneyservice.com/ and credit unions are accused of predatory lending and financial disclosures concealment.
