Uruguayan president Jose Mujica said that if Argentina wished to recover the Falklands/Malvinas Islands it should appeal to the “women” and an invasion of “mattresses and blankets”. Read full article
Castro would go down well in the Globe Tavern on any night; but Mujica is 4 decades behind. The Argies missed a strategic game option during the 70's and Mujica's play at catch up is similiary passed its expiry date! We've all moved on, thats the reality.
“when your recover the Malvinas, then you'll have to deal with us, because originally during the Spanish empire, the Islands depended from the naval stockade in Montevideo, under direct command from the king in Spain, not from Buenos Aires. They didn't trust you”.
Untrustworthy then, still untrustworthy today....
”Castro would go down well in the Globe Tavern on any night;'... what , you want somewhere to park your bike?
Going by the last census data 46% of the population of the Falkland Islands is (or at least was in 2012) married and another 11% is cohabiting.
I can't see the wives and girlfriends of these Falkland Islanders being exactly overjoyed at this latest and most cunning of plans. Besides which, going by the referendum results (where the total votes against the status quo was only a small fraction of the population who were born in Argentina), there's a good chance of the women who manage to escape to the Falkland Islands going native anyway.
As we've seen on another thread, Cabeza Dura has got hordes of nubile teenage sluts desperate to steal his seed. Maybe some of them could be sent over?
Maybe he's just demob happy, or maybe it's a case of in vino veritas, or maybe he's been smoking something, but he's blurted some nice home truths to Argentina there, and shown the true extent of Mercosur solidarity over Malvinismo.
Immensely hilarious! What century is Mujica living in? 'Mattresses and blankets' indeed. In a population of less than 3,000, I can't see any undue argie influence going unnoticed. At least argie women will be accustomed to giving change! And being 'shared' around. Per 'Rufus', how many argie women will find themselves in Falkland Sound? And this is what has the support of 64% of Uruguayans? Any Uruguayans want to look up the Battle of the River Plate? Uruguayans had a front seat on how the British defeat totalitarianism. The nazis were properly scared of democratic people. Banners, flags, marches and rallies. The nazis tried them all. Still, if the argies want to send their whores as well.........! Still, the (male) Falklands teenagers should be happy. Learn to shag with no comebacks. Because the slag will get deported! After 'servicing' all the boys!
So Mujica's idea of reconquering and subjugating the Malvinas is to send Argentina's prostitutes. Only question is, would there be more sheep in the Falkland Islands or prostitutes?
An interesting proposal - Mujica is almost suggesting friendly relations with the Falkland Islanders. Creating links and making them feel part of the community.
A shame that he has to spoil it by repeating the lie that Argentina can recover the Islands. This is impossible - you can't recover what wasn't yours to begin with.
Can't someone hit this man with a big stick and put everyone out of their misery. ?
It is clear however that Argentina ever achieving sovereignty over the Falkland Islands is now reduced to comedy. He is surely taking the piss out of Argentina is he not?
Oxford dictionary (invasion): An unwelcome intrusion into another’s domain:
Not his best choice of words, however they are his words that the Falklands are not argentines domain but anothers. Persuasion not invasion is what he meant, the old fart
I think it is a systemic belief in the heads of South Americans that the Falkland Islands are just sat there waiting to be taken and ripe for the picking, all they have to do is find the right bait or enticement.
We need to give these people a shot across the bows and let them have a small taste of what they will get if they try anything stupid again. Memories are starting to fade and they are taking our good nature for granted.
Is he really suggesting that Argentina prostitutes its better looking young women just to acquire a few Islands that it only wants for Argentinas National honour?
Perverse or what!?
I cannot believe that any serious person would suggest such a thing, especially the President of a Country. Only people rubbing their err ...hands....in anticipation.... will be a few male Falkland Islander adolescents.
Is it just me or was Mujica taking the piss - he seems to be saying that Argentine men are not up to it so let the women try but I don't think the Argentine reporter got the joke and took him seriously.
What makes him think by sending political prostitutes will gain argentina the Falklands? After living under Argentine rule who in their right mind would return to it after tasting true democracy.
So what would happen if Falklands defence force wasn't around?
Is this not just sour grapes as we are courting Chile and not them?
Is botox board going to lead by example, a more terrifying thought than any invasion force
@18
Why the request to point out the completely obvious?
Some things don't need comment or analysis.
However, here is my take on it, as you asked...
The man is a silly old fool, who is having his little jokes at the expense of Argentina. The fact that some of these jokes are in poor taste is only to be expected of him. Another dinosaur on his way to extinction is nothing about which to become overwrought.
He is clearly teasing Argentina. The Falkland Islands are merely the instrument with which to provoke them. The macho insults are merely generic to his cultural heritage.
If anyone should be offended, it should be the Argentines, as it was to them the barbs were intended.
The irony is that prior to the 1982 invasion as pointed out in the article this was probably the most realistic way for the Falklands to become part of Argentina.
The UK had lost interest and the Home Office were actively pushing for the Islands to look towards South America. Argentina was increasing its links and the Islands were increasingly reliant on them for a number of services including the airport.
Argentina had asked to set up a navy base, if that had happened rather then the invasion the process of assimilation would only of sped up. A navy base means accommodation for single personel male and female as well as families moving in for those who were already married.
No doubt that would of led to an increase in intermarriage as well as Argentine Children going to the local school. Thirty years down the line you would have a sizeable Falkland/Argentine mixed community.
Argentina invaded and shot themselves in the foot with that idea....
Is it just me or was Mujica taking the piss - he seems to be saying that Argentine men are not up to it ..blablabla..
considering that you were +/-1500 inhabitants in +/-1850 and that you still are just +/- 1500 inhabitants in 2014, it seems that you lot are not up to it.
maybe you lot are totally useless when you have to get laid , or your women or both.
my theory is that all the inhabitants of the islets are extremely ugly, unshaggable people.
I think from personal experience Argentine women are not wooed by us Europeans, or North Americans, much less will the bucolic Falkland Islanders be able to engineer any better result.
@25
You may be confusing lack of interest in women with Misogyny. Or in fact you may be suggesting just that, in which case you will find that you then are a supremacist racist for NOT having chosen an Asian or Indian woman as your wife. Indeed, your apparent championing of passive personal choice (in not being interested in women), as misogyny carries as a concomitant the fact that all those who did not choose a black lady/man in dating are racist, all those that did not choose a Jewish person are anti-semites, all those gay men that did not choose a woman are misogynists... and that you are probably all three for not choosing that black jewish lady from Ethiopia as your wife / partner.
So Hans Niesund is racist, anti-Semite, and misogynist. Shame on you sir.
It is, in principle an excellent idea. Argentina has a wealth of beautiful women. I am sure that if a few hundred arrived on the islands, the young single men could indeed find them attractive. Mixed race children with an affinity to both the islands and Argentina...why not?
The reason is as you say, the islanders have a choice. The status quo...one of the highest GDP per capitas in the world, a lifestyle and freedom they value and and an excellent society.
Argentina is a failed state, riddled with corruption, crime, fascist propaganda and ghastly dishonest scum like Paulcondom.
The new inhabitants (beautiful Argentine women) would take one look at the choice and join the 99.7% first chance they got.
”The new inhabitants (beautiful Argentine women) would take one look at the choice and join the 99.7% first chance they got.”
Brilliant idea

Fuck them, and then send them home saying they were not fit for purpose. At least they have big feet so perhaps after a good rogering they could be set loose on the minefields to clear them.
The old fool is wrong...the women would just become Anglicised...for want of a better word...maybe Britishified....
I've seen it happen to Yanks the leftovers from a US Naval base in the UK....
They occasionally visit their homeland, but would never return...
...it's weird they can barely relate to their ain folk....
I agree, they even start wearing skirts, chewing deep fried Mars Bars, blowing cows bladders and dancing around on their toes in a nancy like fasion. A sorry state of affairs

A lesson in biology. Amoebas dont have Tw**ts. They clone themselves by cellular subdivisión. You may have noticed they appear here under different names but their sub-mental disabilities are identical
From personal experience: Argentine women in their 20s are for the most part, very attractive. After living with them however, you'll find they are high matainance , quarrelsome, bossy and impossible to please.
By the time they reach 38, they end up looking just like the typical Sicilian waistless mama with a mustache...
Thank God the Uruguayan electorate doesn't take politics seriously, they have a comedian as their leader.
@ 55
...you'll find they are “high maintenance” , quarrelsome, bossy and impossible to please.
By the time they reach 38, they end up looking just like the typical Sicilian waistless “mama” with a mustache...
So, in essence, the extreme end of that delightful progression is...CFK?
That actually makes sense in a disturbing sort of way...

You are not getting pussy for being a mangina & Yes man. Get it into your head.... Stop being such a dick claiming everywhere I'm a misogynist (which you cant even prove) while you pander to daddy Mohamed in your own streets every day. Why dont you stop and call on the others here saying far worse things than I ?? Of got an opinion and I can damm well stand by it. Stupid libtard.
When I enquired of an Argentine woman I know quite well what she was thinking when she slept with a Russian guy and a chap from the U.S. in the same night - it was in Mendoza - she responded that it was 'the Argentine way'. Seriously. I care not who she sleeps with and in what quantity but she was looking for a future partner. I explained that unless she was thinking of making a career of it, she needed to rethink her 'Argentine way'.
60.
I think she hasn't been informed that the cold war is over and that she doesn't have to keep on maneuvering and coming and going in diplomatic relations between the US and Russia.
42. CD. I hate getting personal....but if you think Christina Kirchner is a beauty......just how fucking ugly are you to have such low standards? Seriously........her lips pucker like an asshole riding itself of waste.
All Argentina EVER had to do was persuade 1500 odd voting individuals that they were better off with Argentina than the UK.
And Argentina has never even TRIED.
...which says pretty much everything that needs to be said....
they've got so little faith in their own country and everything in it that they cant make Argentina look more promising than dank, dark, wet, gloomy, miserable UK, overcrowded, sewer infested seas, cold beaches and fried-mars-bar eating fatties with Pie & ale as the low-fat diet on exhibition at the end of the local Pier...
But no, they cant better that... (seriously how frikkin sad is that?)
Seriously, £1 million ahead and a free high-class call girl (or boy) and the island would've been yours 10 times over.
what a bunch of *&&^%$£
(which just goes to prove its nothing but a useful political distraction)
55 Chicureo
You're spot on about the high maintenance; high expense also. Muy complicado as my dear friend who is stuck with one would say.
65 Anbar
You make a good point and on the whole it is true. There was the offer of money to leave once (I can't remember if it was a million quid or a million dollars per person) but they got no takers. They did try a lame charm offensive in the 90s too but now it just seems to be offensive without the fake charm.
Basically, luckily for us, they couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery.
The ambassador thanked all British “members of parliament, unions and organizations that support Argentina’s call for dialogue and a peaceful and definitive solution to the controversy.”
Its a thank-you to nobody, for nothing, yet it makes out that they just thanked all” their supporters.
(of whom, there may be none)
Probably plays out well in Argentina.
Elaine: you are quibbling over the amount, not the possibility.
Many times in history foreign powers purchased, bribed and culturally assimilated elites of nations they annexed.
So the Romans did to the chieftains of Iron age Britain, so did the British do it in India and so on.
Its bearly 3000 ppl. It speaks volumes of the short sightedness of the Argentines rather than anything else
Argentina have botched every attempt to claim the Falklands and now it is too late.
Send over 1,000 Argentinean woman and nearly all their offspring will think of themselves as Falkland Islanders. And nearly 100% of their children will.
Assimilation always favours the dominant culture. Argentina never have and never will be the dominant culture on the Islands.
But we are talking specifically about the Falklands and the Argentines believing they can slip the Islanders a few quid and they will give up their homes and nationality. It is utterly ridiculous. Though from the comments it would appear that the Falkland Islanders could slip the Argentines a few U.S, dollars and take Argentina. When the oil money comes in…...
I think Im smart enough not to pretend that Argentina can now 2014 in the total mess its in, assimilate & annex a country that is among the top ten GDP per capitas in the world according to the CIA Factbook...
@80 Then again Argentina thought they could just take the Falklands in 1982 and look what happened. They completely underestimated the opponent.
I think it was possible to have worked WITH the Falkland Islanders in many ways but that would have needed a mature attitude from Argentine governments.
80. But Galtieri's ultimate objective was domestic, not the conquest of the Falklands in 1982 per se.
He certainly did not wish to break up the Argentine alliance with Washington and end up pandering to the Soviets & Cubans. It's obvious he was counting on a bluff and that Margaret Thatcher would be called off by Reagan as the US had called out Britain, France and Israel during the Suez crisis. And there is massive historical evidence to support this.
Now that is completely different if the objective where to have actually taken over the islands back in those years. It would have just taken a mixture of bribery, increasing economic dependency, immigration, Argentine women, purcheses, grant islanders offices in the government like Romans used to do and so on.
@82 I really don't agree. There is considerable testimony from Argentine military officers that Galtieri was intent on taking the Falklands before moving on to Chile. I am sure it was for domestic distraction but that was still his intention. I also believe he hoped to exploit the relationship with the U.S. as Reagan did, indeed, try to talk Thatcher out of defending the Island. She was not easily 'bought' and Reagan resorted to begging her to leave the Argentines with a little dignity by not attacking the mainland.
I think you are overestimating the ability of Argentine women. :)
71 - Sr. Botin, Here is a joke for you....Karl was up on a hill having a good ole' time with a Falkland sheep. When Iam and Ian come up on the next hill over and catch him in the 'act' ;). Karl, embarrassed as heck runs over to them as says,
Hey guys, I thought we all did this?
They reply, We do!, but why did you pick the ugliest one!!!
For starters Galtieri came from a very pro western side of the military. It was the Navy officers that conditioned his leadership when they toppled Viola under the promise of a land invasion of the islands (1982 J.B Yofre, 2011) when he became president... But that is different from actually going to war with Britain.
He counted on the three premises.
a) Britain would not react,
b) After long negotiations the UN, IS pressure an agreement of transfer would take place i.e lease back
c) Reagan would call off a military confrontation.
Yes Chile would have being the larger piece of the pie, but that was known ever since the Beagle crisis, so no breaking news there. Its not that it was first step Falklands, then step 2 Chile
From my experience Anglo women weigh on average 70 kilos standing 160cm, have large but either fake and bouncing or real and sagging glerbs, and like all anglos their skin is so thick in oil you could wipe their face clean and then run your car with the collected material. Those that don't wash develop massive outbreaks of acne or a unique Anglo malady called rosacea. I've seen pictures of this condition and never seen it on argentines. Only on anglo tourists.
> Its not that it was first step Falklands, then step 2 Chile
Lami Dozo said otherwise:
According to the original plan code named Rosario, following the capture of the Falklands and no reaction or limited reaction from Britain, the Argentine military would move to take control of the disputed islands in the Beagle Channel which cartographically are decisive for the access control to the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
In 1982 we owned a large C-band sat dish (5M) which could pick up new and non-encrypted programs in Brasil. This included news from LATAM and Africa that was either uplinked to North America, or downlinked to O Globo and other stations. The stations would take the raw feed, perhaps with or without a commentator from the country sending the footage, and between the recordings, both would chat back and forth explaining things to add a little colour to the newsfeed.
One evening at about 8, one of the Argentine newsmen blurted this out on a C-Band Sat uplink when the war over the islands began. Big Argentine of German decent with red-brown hair and a handlebar mustache. He was talking aggressively, pounding on the table in front of him to accentuate his points, to whomever was taking the sat news feed in North America:
First we will recover the islands, and then we will address what is ours in the Beagle Channel.
Confident yes, but typically block-headed. Didn't work out that way then, and it won't work that way again today.
Unless of course the plan is to distract the citizens yet again.
The Rosario plan, of course was formulated after dialogue, negotiation, and arbitration had produced a result Argentina didn't like. More interestingly, the population subsequently voted to accept the result. Perhaps one day it might be the same for certain other unfounded aggressive territorial ambitions.
It depends on what circumstances would develop on the islands and how much resourses and effort the Junta would consume. But that Galtieri said at the time, it was not a state secret, it was a matter of geopolitics that Chile would have being next.
Unfortunately for Mujica and Argentina, who think the Falkland Islanders are uneducated cretins, and would not actually see this coming (er what part of the Islanders are University educated in the UK do they not understand?)this scheme would backfire.
Any Argentine women would be indeed assimilated into the islands, but would prefer to become Falkland Islanders than remain Argentine citizens due to the higher standard of living and their opportunity to progress, denied to them by a bankrupt country which seems sadly destined to F U for a long time to come.
They would also be able to move to the UK .
The Argentines would never understand this:
CFK: Senoritas, now you have married the Kelpers, you can vote in their next referendum to become Argentine and make your husbands do the same.
Argentine Ladies: What? We have a much better standard of living than we could get in that shithole we left, our husbands have money, and there are no power cuts. Why would we want Argentine sovereignty when that would fuck this place up within 5 years? You Botox features, may well cherish Antonio Rivero, but we chose to emulate Antonina Roxa who started off as a female gaucho working for Vernet, and ended up owning a ranch near Stanley.
Oh yes, my 'Kelper' husband says I can do a degree at a British University, paid for by the FIG and all of us now have dual British nationality.
Good luck with your failed country that is now in our past. Adioussssssssss.
CFK: Errrrrrr? They were supposed to guarantee Argentine sovereignty-GET ME NO MONEY PEPE ON THE PHONE RIGHT NOW!
Mujica: (In clouds of cannabis smoke) Ha ha fooled you, Botox bitch!
Perhaps looks are important when its the only thing your society has going for it. Fortunately Britain leads the world where it really matters: science and culture, not the fleeting ability to convince someone to want to sleep with you.
Pauly, on my recent visit to Mendoza I was shocked by the number of obese people, the gross looking women reminded me of Les Dawsons Rolly Pollys ! Many were outstandingly ugly too. Unfortunately Italy and Spain are in your genes and past about the age of 30 on a diet of high carb pasta and rice turns most Latino women into revolting fatties with hooded eyes and greasy sagging skin. In Britain and the Falkland Islands women grow old gracefully and remain attractive which is part of the reason Britain has so many enduring international singers and actresses admired everywhere. Whilst Argentina has none.
Sorry Pepe (and little Pauly) we don't want to degrade our gene pool with old bags from Argentina!
celebrities, you bunch of asses, are less than the 0.01 % of the population.
anyway, it seems it is hard for you to understand that there are cities where most of the women are gorgeous.
not a surprise since you have never left pork stanley.
For a few decades now some of my more generous expat friends - of way above average intellect and integrity - have been trying to sleep with as many rotting roadkillian women as possible. This is all in vane though as no matter how hard they try they are unable to raise the collective intelligence or morality of a new generation. Daddy used to say that you could take any old cow and a good bull and raise a pretty good calf but this is not true in rotting roadkill. The cows are just too inferior.
Gringo Amigos, we salute ourselves in this valiant effort.
@88. You were in a pig sty trying to stuff a sow. Not too different from an argie female. But then, a proper British woman would call over a gentleman friend to beat you to a pulp and dispose of your corpse.
@102. Rather have an English Rose than an argie latrine cleaner.
@106. Argieland doesn't have any 'celebrities'. Unless you are counting argie shemale prostitute porn workers!
@111. Nothing like that in argieland. There aren't any 'gorgeous' women in argieland. At best, blow-up dolls. 108 pounds of botox. And an air pump!
@102 Lol pauly you truly are stupid. Why would we have a University when our Government can pay for people to attend Universities all over the world. Also, nothing wrong with shearing sheep, I have known people who have earned £20,000 to £30,000 in three months. How much do you earn begging for pesos in your shanty town?
Just an observation on the beauty of Argentine women, sample size 1 (me).
I have only seen a few young Argentines and they were uninspiring but once they get to 25 or so they seem to blossom physically but are obviously insecure mentally. Otherwise, why would they keep pawing the poor sap that is paying big bucks for their upkeep? It happens nearly all the time in PdelE and makes me feel ill.
Once the women are over 50 they revert to the fashions of when they were 18, albeit with stunning figures. It is only when they turn around and you see all the mahogany coloured deeply lined faces that you realise that stunning figure belonged to an over the hill has been.
Next you see the 60 something’s in trouser suits but always with low cut blouses showing off the mahogany tan to her chest: but the tits are now flaps! Uggh.
I cannot imagine why any Islander would want any part of that scenario.
115. That exact thing happened to me when I first moved to BA. The Rg women have no understanding of age appropriate clothing, men too.
I was shopping in Recoleta and there was a lady with pig tales, a beret and a very short catholic school girl skirt and when she turned around she had the face of my great aunt! I almost burst out laughing.
Anyhoo, the Rgs should be really concerned with YPF dropping like a rock. It looks like the U$6B they spend was a bit too much.
I bet Repsol is soooo glad to be done with that nightmare!
Their timing was sublime.
More than beauty behavior is paramount. From passive observations Anglo women (Ozzer, NorthAmoland, Great Brutain), simply have no education whatsoever on the manners of being a classy adult woman. Most dress as if they were cartoon characters: with t-shirts or tops with cartoons, a trillion colors, or the like. Something I also found bizarre is the Anglos love wearing t-shirts with ridiculous slogans like eat my pie, or fuck the police, or bitch hit it rich (I've seen these). I'm talking about adult men and women and they think this is appropriate. They apparently fail to realize everyone around them finds them laughable and of probably low intelligence.
Anglos, just like Slavs, and Scandinavians, also have this bizarre idea that excess drinking to the point of publicly appearing intoxicated is somehow cool. 99% of the people I have ever seen publicly drunk are Anglos or one of the other groups. From what I have read it is actually part of going out, so you see men and women drinking for the sake of reaching the point of behaving embarrassingly. One time I saw two American women stripping on top of their car during the wine festival. Then they asked for more wine.
... And being publicly wasted and acting like a twat is a sign of adult deportment. The funniest thing is they think they are being considered cool, all argentines around them know better they are the only ones Joe Schmo on whom the joke is.
MercoPress... the Great Warper of truth... And tenses...
Any of you, gullible brainwashed Anglo Turnips, ever heard about tenses?
Well... the above interview with Pepe has Misteriously been re-written and translated by Somebody in the PRESENT TENSE (very badly translated, by the way)
Hereby a correct translation, in the original PAST TENSE, of Pepe's words to Mr. Filmus.:
This game was to be won with women... With women... Crossbreeding, marrying, everything..., everything.
Yes..., yes, that would have been a blankets” invasion. It's wrong that 1,000 guys dominate you, you know what I mean?
They should have been invaded with pillows and mattresses... That's for sure, dude...
And opened Argentina's gates for them... Invited them to play football... Absorbed them... The people, not the Army...
Now, they are supported by the gomers... What strength do the English gomers have? http://sur.infonews.com/nota/10057/la-austeridad-y-la-libertad
Time to wake up from your Anglo Brainwash, Turnips...
And remember to check your information sources...
It's a jungle out there...
Ah, yes. But the Whacky Leadership needs to divert attention. Short of an actual military invasion of the Islands, a story like this goes a long way to keep the attention away from the financial nightmare.
Personally I suspect if they parachuted an Argie Bikini Team over the Islands they'd just switch sides anyway and stay put..
@117 Get of your high horse mate, I have been to south america and seen (and drank with) Argentinians, Chileans etc who go out and drink excessively. Also the t-shirts are meant to be humorous and stupid, no one takes them seriously.
I think women in the FI are quite good looking! I wouldn't mind interacting with a few myself if they don't mind a burbon drinking hillbilly from Kentucky
Turnip Stink has arrived having been deployed by Gollum because Pauly and Toby are making such a hash of things. Argies need to be seen as Europeans not indigenous South Americans that they so despise. When you realise this you can understand the insecurity and self doubt and all those phsychiatrists. Loosers…
@114
Why would we have a University when our Government can pay for people to attend Universities all over the world?
It's not like any Argentine university is worth going to when you are lucky to leave being able to count to 3.
Great Universities in the UK and great football clubs-that's why people from the South Atlantic region like to visit the UK, the Islanders to study in our unis and great Argentine players to play in the UK, rather than stay in Argentina.
I mean, how much money would Di Maria earn in Argentina?
Nice try, but your argument about tenses is really a distinction without a difference, and a rather poor fig leaf to cover the embarrassment Mujica has heaped upon Argentine strategy and pretensions, dopey old sexist though he may be.
I think Mujica is having a last laugh on Argentina before he leaves office as they are so gull-able, but at least this story has woken up the trolls from their Malvina daydreams.
you would think that Mujica is saying Argentina women are hore's but who am i to disagree.
No one here worries if this story is really true or not (except you, apparently). It is an interesting concept - send good-looking women to do the job that your pathetic military failed to do 30 years ago.
Or are you worried that any pretty girls in your neighborhood would rather go off to the Islands to marry a lonely sheep farmer than hook up with a lonely guy typing on a computer in his mom's basement?
This story must hurt his Troll pride.
He is doing his best to laugh it off, debunk it, or minimise the words of Pepe.
I bet all the Mercosur Socialists are shaking their heads, oh no, not again.. as Pepe inadvertently drops a clanger!!
A slap in the face to the Argies, an upset to LATAM solidarity, an embarrassment to CFK, and an insult to Argentine women, as well as a revealing example of the underlying misogyny of the LATAM culture!
One can only hope not everyone there is so unenlightened!
Think-Turnip himself, King of the Condescending Chauvinists, does the issue no favours, attacking the one woman poster by belittling her intellect and calling her a lesbian.
Think-Turnip - you are your own worst enemy, revealing the worst side of SA societal values.
now, why the fuck a beautiful, lovely, sexy, gorgeous argentine woman would go to the stinky islets when they can stay here in olivos, shan ishidro, belgrano, fisherton, and the list goes on.
the islets have nothing to offer: no schools, no universities, no cinemas, no theatres, no libraries, no clubs, no football, no rugby, no polo, no hockey, no tennis, no trees, not even a proper hospital.
i guess they do not even have a decent boutique, lol.
add to that their shitty weather and draw your own conclusions.
Argentina is broke and bankrupt. They couldn't buy lunch for the Islanders, let alone pay them enough to want to go somewhere else...
Argentina's military couldn't shoot down a sick pigeon, let alone invade the Islands again.
So the only national asset they have left are pretty girls...
Although looking at recent pictures of the Whacky Leadership it seems that well may be drying up also...
AngloTurnip (and, at times, Thinking Teuton) at (134)
Penguin News has fabricated this story by changing its past tense to present tense... Causing dozens of turnipy comments from..........?........ Turnips.
As Kelper Falklandlas so candidly and correctly puts it at his comment at (2)...:
Mujica is 4 decades behind. The Argies missed a strategic game option during the 70's ..........
Well..... Of course President Mujica is 4 decades behind!
He is speaking about 4 decades ago!
The whole interview is about what he thinks Argentina should have done 4 decades ago!
As my correct past tensed translation (and the Spanish original) at (118) clearly shows...
i am defending no one - I am just intent on making you look more like the fool you obviously are! Without the ad hominem remarks with which you seem so familiar.
Turnip!
So what? Were his remarks pertinent or not? Or would you suggest that Argentina's perennial picking the scab off its own unfounded sense of grievance is a better strategy?
And in any event, wanna bet that the vast majority of those who

Is that really what you value in life? Seriously? Hockey, tennis, football and boutiques.
You seem to be just a bit, well, limited. There isn't anything absolutely contemptible about such a vapid, shallow, pampered existence. You wouldn't last five minutes in the Falklands, and there's no shame in that. To each their own I guess.

Of course they were pertinent..... for 40 (forty) years ago...
The strategy today is make the it a baaaad business for the City to keep the Malvinas...
And we all know that for the City, money comes before Queen & Country...
Just one recent example that, in my humble opinion has been a double win for Argentina...:
The blocking of the Gripen Fighters sales to Argentina by the Engrish lobby....
Firstly, as an Anti Militarist, I'm grateful that stupid contract was killed by the Engrish...
Secondly, the 30% Engrish participation in the Gripen Fighter project means that the 2,500,000,000€uros cancelled contract with Argentina has costed the Engrish economy some ..... 750 million €uros.
MP writes very few stories and usually about local events - the other material they source from others.
In this case Filmus
Pepe's statements in this article, are direct quotes - tense intact.
Your translation is mere paraphrasing, put into the Past Tense.
I do not speak Spanish, nor is this audience meant to - it's an English-Only forum, ergo the story was translated.
Given your own record of spinning, omitting, fabricating, misleading, and lying, I am more likely to believe this story was faithfully reproduced by MP, rather than you, Turnip.
For a President of a country to make these statements publicly to the media, is outrageous, regardless of his private thoughts.
For you to disregard that issue, and focus on trying to say he message was subtly spun by the news site, reveals that you hold the same values and are equally clueless as to how dehumanising and degrading it is towards women, and how demeaning it is towards Argentine women in particular.
As a proud Argentine, and an enlightened progressive Thinker, you should have been outraged - you weren't.
OK. Finally something we can agree on. As a Swedish taxpayer I am infinitely grateful that the Gripen deal was cancelled. Knowing your country's history of paying bills on time, guess who would have had to pay for those fighter jets in the end?
Nice attempt at Gripen-related distraction, but Muijica's remarks are as pertinent today as they would have been if he'd made them forty years ago. There is no better guarantor of the Falklands' current status than Argentina's sense of grievance, couple with an inflated view of its own influence and its inability to grasp the political context in the UK. The K's in this respect are even dumber than the junta was, at least the junta didn't have such a glaring precedent before it.
A lot of people still seem to be completely missing the most salient point, and going off on silly tangents.
The point being, Pepe was/is teasing the Argentinos. He is taking the piss. He is also insulting their sense of machismo whilst expressing his own.
He said 'football and pretty Argentinas would work better than your crap military'.
He is just being a mischevious old dog, enjoying his fading limelight. He knows he is in a position to insult Argentina and no one will say anything.
So if anyone should take offence over his supposedly humorous remarks, that should be Argentina.

Is that really what you value in life? Seriously? Hockey, tennis, football and boutiques.
no.
sadly the list is a lot longer:
to the lack of sports you should add: no schools, no universities, no cinemas, no theatres, no libraries, not even a proper hospital.
it seems you can´t even read a complete post.
well, that happens when your only option to be educated is a community school.
The ammount of posters here pretending to be fussy over their women and trashing Arg women makes me think that Anglotino & paulcedron are not the only gay commentators in this site.
Does anyone realise that the joke is on Argentina?
Pepe was just just using the Falklands as the 'stick' to poke the 'dog'. He could have used anything, anything at all, (the Economy/the Default etc.) but knows this is a scab on the Argentine psyche.
He was just teasing them. It worked. His slightly crass comments certainly hit home.

Well thank you Think for highlighting the error by the website.
And thank you for highlighting that yet again Argentina failed in an opportunity to gain the Falkland Islands.
WIt hour appear to be an uneducated turnip, is that 3 failed attempts now?
The story made Argentina look much better when we all believed Mujica was talking in the present tense. But now, thanks to you highlighting it was in the past tense..... well Argentina looks even more like Fuktardia than usual.
It makes me a little sad when you make Argentina look so bad Think.... takes away some of my joy in visiting this site.
All the endless Argie attempts at getting the Islands is probably the best illustration there ever can be of the concept of a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow...

Pepe Mujica has a good point, the sexually frustrated English in Malvinas have few options to choose:
Manly looking ladies, sheep or 72 virgins in heaven.

Pepe is joking about Argentina.
He thinks you are idiots.
You are too stupid to understand.
How terribly sad when even you can't understand when your friends think you are worthy of a joke.
I ignored the other parts of your post because they are wrong and I didn't want to embarrass you. Since you insist:
No schools; there are two main schools and several settlement schools, and a dedicated space for 6th formers at one of the top schools in the UK.
No university; well of course not. No island of 300o people has a university. We do have access to any university in the UK or beyond, paid for by FIG.
No 'proper' hospital? It saved my life once. We also have access to top quality medical care in Chile and in the UK, paid for by FIG.
No cinema; wrong
No library; wrong
No theatre; well, you've got me there
I'm not going to get trolled into a discussion about my education, but I can absolutely guarantee you it's better than yours.
@171 I was telling you to stop being such a snob about the British binge drinking when people in all countries do it. Not sure what your comment has to do with that, your just making fun of Americans, I'm British so I am in no way offended by the article you posted, actually i find it funny.
This morning I woke up and finally have had enough of you North Americans. From now on, you are simply weed on a garden to ignore. It is the end of the line for me in any efforts to deal with you. Forever more I will eschew you and your entire ilk.

Amazing that a few sexist jokes aimed at defunct Argentina has caused such a kerfuffle.

Immensely hilarious! What century is Mujica living in? 'Mattresses and blankets' indeed. In a population of less than 3,000, I can't see any undue argie influence going unnoticed. At least argie women will be accustomed to giving change! And being 'shared' around. Per 'Rufus', how many argie women will find themselves in Falkland Sound? And this is what has the support of 64% of Uruguayans? Any Uruguayans want to look up the Battle of the River Plate? Uruguayans had a front seat on how the British defeat totalitarianism. The nazis were properly scared of democratic people. Banners, flags, marches and rallies. The nazis tried them all. Still, if the argies want to send their whores as well.........!

Dec 01st, 2014 - 04:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why the request to point out the completely obvious?
Some things don't need comment or analysis.
However, here is my take on it, as you asked...
The man is a silly old fool, who is having his little jokes at the expense of Argentina. The fact that some of these jokes are in poor taste is only to be expected of him. Another dinosaur on his way to extinction is nothing about which to become overwrought.
He is clearly teasing Argentina. The Falkland Islands are merely the instrument with which to provoke them. The macho insults are merely generic to his cultural heritage.
If anyone should be offended, it should be the Argentines, as it was to them the barbs were intended.
They would only have to send 2 women....Alicia Castro and her good 'working girl' companion,CFK,they already have a mattress strapped to their back !
Dec 01st, 2014 - 05:03 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The irony is that prior to the 1982 invasion as pointed out in the article this was probably the most realistic way for the Falklands to become part of Argentina.
Dec 01st, 2014 - 05:04 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The UK had lost interest and the Home Office were actively pushing for the Islands to look towards South America. Argentina was increasing its links and the Islands were increasingly reliant on them for a number of services including the airport.
Argentina had asked to set up a navy base, if that had happened rather then the invasion the process of assimilation would only of sped up. A navy base means accommodation for single personel male and female as well as families moving in for those who were already married.
No doubt that would of led to an increase in intermarriage as well as Argentine Children going to the local school. Thirty years down the line you would have a sizeable Falkland/Argentine mixed community.
Argentina invaded and shot themselves in the foot with that idea....
@26 Z-ville Is this one of those “so dumb and idiotic that it might actually work” sort of idea?

You may be confusing lack of interest in women with Misogyny. Or in fact you may be suggesting just that, in which case you will find that you then are a supremacist racist for NOT having chosen an Asian or Indian woman as your wife. Indeed, your apparent championing of passive personal choice (in not being interested in women), as misogyny carries as a concomitant the fact that all those who did not choose a black lady/man in dating are racist, all those that did not choose a Jewish person are anti-semites, all those gay men that did not choose a woman are misogynists... and that you are probably all three for not choosing that black jewish lady from Ethiopia as your wife / partner.
So Hans Niesund is racist, anti-Semite, and misogynist. Shame on you sir.

The reason is as you say, the islanders have a choice. The status quo...one of the highest GDP per capitas in the world, a lifestyle and freedom they value and and an excellent society.
Argentina is a failed state, riddled with corruption, crime, fascist propaganda and ghastly dishonest scum like Paulcondom.

You make a good point and on the whole it is true. There was the offer of money to leave once (I can't remember if it was a million quid or a million dollars per person) but they got no takers. They did try a lame charm offensive in the 90s too but now it just seems to be offensive without the fake charm.

Dec 02nd, 2014 - 01:57 am - Link - Report abuse 0Argentina have botched every attempt to claim the Falklands and now it is too late.
Send over 1,000 Argentinean woman and nearly all their offspring will think of themselves as Falkland Islanders. And nearly 100% of their children will.
Assimilation always favours the dominant culture. Argentina never have and never will be the dominant culture on the Islands.
But we are talking specifically about the Falklands and the Argentines believing they can slip the Islanders a few quid and they will give up their homes and nationality. It is utterly ridiculous. Though from the comments it would appear that the Falkland Islanders could slip the Argentines a few U.S, dollars and take Argentina. When the oil money comes in…...

@80 Then again Argentina thought they could just take the Falklands in 1982 and look what happened. They completely underestimated the opponent.
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 02:14 am - Link - Report abuse 0I think it was possible to have worked WITH the Falkland Islanders in many ways but that would have needed a mature attitude from Argentine governments.
80. But Galtieri's ultimate objective was domestic, not the conquest of the Falklands in 1982 per se.
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 02:24 am - Link - Report abuse 0He certainly did not wish to break up the Argentine alliance with Washington and end up pandering to the Soviets & Cubans. It's obvious he was counting on a bluff and that Margaret Thatcher would be called off by Reagan as the US had called out Britain, France and Israel during the Suez crisis. And there is massive historical evidence to support this.
Now that is completely different if the objective where to have actually taken over the islands back in those years. It would have just taken a mixture of bribery, increasing economic dependency, immigration, Argentine women, purcheses, grant islanders offices in the government like Romans used to do and so on.
@82 I really don't agree. There is considerable testimony from Argentine military officers that Galtieri was intent on taking the Falklands before moving on to Chile. I am sure it was for domestic distraction but that was still his intention. I also believe he hoped to exploit the relationship with the U.S. as Reagan did, indeed, try to talk Thatcher out of defending the Island. She was not easily 'bought' and Reagan resorted to begging her to leave the Argentines with a little dignity by not attacking the mainland.

They reply, We do!, but why did you pick the ugliest one!!!
For starters Galtieri came from a very pro western side of the military. It was the Navy officers that conditioned his leadership when they toppled Viola under the promise of a land invasion of the islands (1982 J.B Yofre, 2011) when he became president... But that is different from actually going to war with Britain.
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 02:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0He counted on the three premises.
a) Britain would not react,
b) After long negotiations the UN, IS pressure an agreement of transfer would take place i.e lease back
c) Reagan would call off a military confrontation.
Yes Chile would have being the larger piece of the pie, but that was known ever since the Beagle crisis, so no breaking news there. Its not that it was first step Falklands, then step 2 Chile

Lami Dozo said otherwise:
According to the original plan code named Rosario, following the capture of the Falklands and no reaction or limited reaction from Britain, the Argentine military would move to take control of the disputed islands in the Beagle Channel which cartographically are decisive for the access control to the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
http://en.mercopress.com/2009/11/23/chile-was-next-target-after-falklands-in-1982-admits-argentine-brigadier
It was indeed openly discussed.
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 09:55 am - Link - Report abuse 0In 1982 we owned a large C-band sat dish (5M) which could pick up new and non-encrypted programs in Brasil. This included news from LATAM and Africa that was either uplinked to North America, or downlinked to O Globo and other stations. The stations would take the raw feed, perhaps with or without a commentator from the country sending the footage, and between the recordings, both would chat back and forth explaining things to add a little colour to the newsfeed.
One evening at about 8, one of the Argentine newsmen blurted this out on a C-Band Sat uplink when the war over the islands began. Big Argentine of German decent with red-brown hair and a handlebar mustache. He was talking aggressively, pounding on the table in front of him to accentuate his points, to whomever was taking the sat news feed in North America:
First we will recover the islands, and then we will address what is ours in the Beagle Channel.
Confident yes, but typically block-headed. Didn't work out that way then, and it won't work that way again today.
Unless of course the plan is to distract the citizens yet again.
The Rosario plan, of course was formulated after dialogue, negotiation, and arbitration had produced a result Argentina didn't like. More interestingly, the population subsequently voted to accept the result. Perhaps one day it might be the same for certain other unfounded aggressive territorial ambitions.

It depends on what circumstances would develop on the islands and how much resourses and effort the Junta would consume. But that Galtieri said at the time, it was not a state secret, it was a matter of geopolitics that Chile would have being next.
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 12:05 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Unfortunately for Mujica and Argentina, who think the Falkland Islanders are uneducated cretins, and would not actually see this coming (er what part of the Islanders are University educated in the UK do they not understand?)this scheme would backfire.
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 12:27 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Any Argentine women would be indeed assimilated into the islands, but would prefer to become Falkland Islanders than remain Argentine citizens due to the higher standard of living and their opportunity to progress, denied to them by a bankrupt country which seems sadly destined to F U for a long time to come.
They would also be able to move to the UK .
The Argentines would never understand this:
CFK: Senoritas, now you have married the Kelpers, you can vote in their next referendum to become Argentine and make your husbands do the same.
Argentine Ladies: What? We have a much better standard of living than we could get in that shithole we left, our husbands have money, and there are no power cuts. Why would we want Argentine sovereignty when that would fuck this place up within 5 years? You Botox features, may well cherish Antonio Rivero, but we chose to emulate Antonina Roxa who started off as a female gaucho working for Vernet, and ended up owning a ranch near Stanley.
Oh yes, my 'Kelper' husband says I can do a degree at a British University, paid for by the FIG and all of us now have dual British nationality.

Unfortunately Italy and Spain are in your genes and past about the age of 30 on a diet of high carb pasta and rice turns most Latino women into revolting fatties with hooded eyes and greasy sagging skin. In Britain and the Falkland Islands women grow old gracefully and remain attractive which is part of the reason Britain has so many enduring international singers and actresses admired everywhere.

Otherwise, why would they keep pawing the poor sap that is paying big bucks for their upkeep? It happens nearly all the time in PdelE and makes me feel ill.
Once the women are over 50 they revert to the fashions of when they were 18, albeit with stunning figures. It is only when they turn around and you see all the mahogany coloured deeply lined faces that you realise that stunning figure belonged to an over the hill has been.
Next you see the 60 something’s in trouser suits but always with low cut blouses showing off the mahogany tan to her chest: but the tits are now flaps! Uggh.
I cannot imagine why any Islander would want any part of that scenario.

Dec 02nd, 2014 - 06:12 pm - Link - Report abuse 0More than beauty behavior is paramount. From passive observations Anglo women (Ozzer, NorthAmoland, Great Brutain), simply have no education whatsoever on the manners of being a classy adult woman. Most dress as if they were cartoon characters: with t-shirts or tops with cartoons, a trillion colors, or the like. Something I also found bizarre is the Anglos love wearing t-shirts with ridiculous slogans like eat my pie, or fuck the police, or bitch hit it rich (I've seen these). I'm talking about adult men and women and they think this is appropriate. They apparently fail to realize everyone around them finds them laughable and of probably low intelligence.
Anglos, just like Slavs, and Scandinavians, also have this bizarre idea that excess drinking to the point of publicly appearing intoxicated is somehow cool. 99% of the people I have ever seen publicly drunk are Anglos or one of the other groups. From what I have read it is actually part of going out, so you see men and women drinking for the sake of reaching the point of behaving embarrassingly. One time I saw two American women stripping on top of their car during the wine festival. Then they asked for more wine.
Somehow Anglos think wearing a t-shirt like this:
http://www.lookhuman.com/design/18533-the-man-the-legend
... And being publicly wasted and acting like a twat is a sign of adult deportment. The funniest thing is they think they are being considered cool, all argentines around them know better they are the only ones Joe Schmo on whom the joke is.

No one here worries if this story is really true or not (except you, apparently). It is an interesting concept - send good-looking women to do the job that your pathetic military failed to do 30 years ago.
Or are you worried that any pretty girls in your neighborhood would rather go off to the Islands to marry a lonely sheep farmer than hook up with a lonely guy typing on a computer in his mom's basement?

Just one recent example that, in my humble opinion has been a double win for Argentina...:
The blocking of the Gripen Fighters sales to Argentina by the Engrish lobby....
Firstly, as an Anti Militarist, I'm grateful that stupid contract was killed by the Engrish...
Secondly, the 30% Engrish participation in the Gripen Fighter project means that the 2,500,000,000€uros cancelled contract with Argentina has costed the Engrish economy some ..... 750 million €uros.
That's what I call a Win - Win situation :-)))

Dec 02nd, 2014 - 10:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0MP spinning the story... ?
... changing Past tense to Present tense..?
MP writes very few stories and usually about local events - the other material they source from others.
In this case Filmus
Pepe's statements in this article, are direct quotes - tense intact.
Your translation is mere paraphrasing, put into the Past Tense.
I do not speak Spanish, nor is this audience meant to - it's an English-Only forum, ergo the story was translated.
Given your own record of spinning, omitting, fabricating, misleading, and lying, I am more likely to believe this story was faithfully reproduced by MP, rather than you, Turnip.
For a President of a country to make these statements publicly to the media, is outrageous, regardless of his private thoughts.
For you to disregard that issue, and focus on trying to say he message was subtly spun by the news site, reveals that you hold the same values and are equally clueless as to how dehumanising and degrading it is towards women, and how demeaning it is towards Argentine women in particular.
As a proud Argentine, and an enlightened progressive Thinker, you should have been outraged - you weren't.
Same goes for Pablo Narcissis CabanaBoy.

Dec 02nd, 2014 - 11:01 pm - Link - Report abuse 0OK. Finally something we can agree on. As a Swedish taxpayer I am infinitely grateful that the Gripen deal was cancelled. Knowing your country's history of paying bills on time, guess who would have had to pay for those fighter jets in the end?
@149
Dec 02nd, 2014 - 11:10 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Nice attempt at Gripen-related distraction, but Muijica's remarks are as pertinent today as they would have been if he'd made them forty years ago. There is no better guarantor of the Falklands' current status than Argentina's sense of grievance, couple with an inflated view of its own influence and its inability to grasp the political context in the UK. The K's in this respect are even dumber than the junta was, at least the junta didn't have such a glaring precedent before it.
Ohhhhh...

Dec 03rd, 2014 - 12:04 am - Link - Report abuse 0The point being, Pepe was/is teasing the Argentinos. He is taking the piss. He is also insulting their sense of machismo whilst expressing his own.
He said 'football and pretty Argentinas would work better than your crap military'.
He is just being a mischevious old dog, enjoying his fading limelight. He knows he is in a position to insult Argentina and no one will say anything.
So if anyone should take offence over his supposedly humorous remarks, that should be Argentina.
