So, no change in the Argentine stance, just no aggressive rhetoric shown at this moment. I am not convinced it is in the Falklands long term interests for doors to start opening in London!

The Falklands are never going to be Argentine so that is not even an issue. There is more than one way to get a country to behave. The more trade is built with Argentina, and the more dependent they become on the income and resultant jobs, the less likely they are to upset the relationship. Good trading relations achieved far more than pointless diatribe. Someone should have mentioned that to Alicia, though she was never a diplomat, just a mouthpiece for CFK.

World wide foreign debt....so it's our fault Argentina borrows money and refuses to pay it back ? How convenient of you to absolve yourself of blame.
Typical Argentine reply....it's somebody else's fault
chicken pox......so we genetically engineered the virus and gave it to the world?
I thought of wishing you a merry Christmas but that would make me a hypocrite.
Chicken Pox apparently came from the Neanderthals. It is mostly accepted that red hair is a Neanderthal trait, as are robust bones and extremely light skin that does not tan.
Dec 25th, 2015 - 12:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0If you look at the British Isles and population characteristics, you will notice that there is a higher proportion of red heads, many which are clearly big boned, and it is well known the British isle natives cannot tan.
Scandinavians, Russians may be just as white but if you have noticed their skin can naturally tan. Many British do not tan.
I have always said there is nothing wrong with being a Neanderthal, they are thought now to be just as smart as Homo Sapiens, and have higher incidence of Autism and Aspergers (I forgot about this one). Aspergers is a condition where people find it more difficult to socialize and form new social groups, but are also more likely to be geniouses or be great at a particular field.
Many say Neanderthals died out because they were not at social as HS and also too specialized. Some scientists claim the specialization gene may be linked to Aspergers, Autism, Idiot Savants, etc.
So yes, the UK is also responsible for Autism, not just chicken pox.
Happy Mawlid day.

Many say Neanderthals...........Some scientists claim.
By the way, Neanderthal is in mainland Europe, in Germany, so that is where the link comes from...not the UK.
So, from these gems of wisdom, you claim ALL science proves this.
Sloppy work but what we have come to expect from your posts.
I presume you have a degree in anthropology to make such a definitive statement.
TO QUOTE;-
When our ancestors first migrated out of Africa around 60,000 years ago, they were not alone. At that time, at least two other species of hominid cousins walked the Eurasian landmass—Neanderthals and Denisovans. As our modern human ancestors migrated through Eurasia, they encountered the Neanderthals and interbred. Because of this, a small amount of Neanderthal DNA was introduced into the modern human gene pool.
Everyone living outside of Africa today has a small amount of Neanderthal in them, carried as a living relic of these ancient encounters. A team of scientists comparing the full genomes of the two species concluded that most Europeans and Asians have between 1 to 4 percent Neanderthal DNA.
So you have some Neanderthal in your genes.
We are responsible for chicken pox.? It occurs worldwide but was first described in England in 1767 by William Heberden.
Chicken pox has likely been a human affliction for thousands of years. For, example, there is suggestive evidence of chickenpox in ancient Babylonia more than 2,000 years ago.
Autism, Britain is responsible for this human condition? Your scholarship is appalling. I doubt you would ever pass any exam in a civilised country.
I can see why Argentina ranks SO LOW in scholarship league tables if you are a prime example.

He seems to have plagiarized his material from The Evil Empire: 101 Ways That England Ruined the World, Steven A. Grasse http://www.philmoore.com.au

”…World War I was our fault because Germany wanted an Empire like ours; ..In Mr Grasse's book, poor old Britain is to blame for world poverty, Islamic terrorism (we created Saddam), even the Vietnam War - because we set the world trend for colonial expansion and the war would never have happened had the country not been a French colony.......were the British ever any good?
The short answer, of course, is yes. For about 150 years, between the mid-18th century to the early 20th, we exercised greater influence over the world than any nation in history, and on the whole we did it benignly.
We carried trade, invention and - most important - the rule of law to all manner of societies which had never known these things.
For all the imperfections of the British Empire, it was overwhelmingly a force for stability and good.

You know, I think your house is too dirty for my own standards, and needs some better decor. Actually, you also need new plumbing. So, I will go buy a rifle and some grenades, go to your house and threaten to blow your brains out. Then I will settle in, have you go to work (and if you say anything I kill your daughter), and pay the bills. Meanwhile I will take a couple of shots at your daughter, she will appreciate my lessons. Your wife too, if she still has looks. I will feed on your refrigerator and make use of your marriage bathroom. But in the meantime I will make the house immaculately clean, will replace the plumbing, install the latest in entertainment technology, give you a brand new luxury car, and yes... the new decor (your culture needs a bid of an update, mine is better).
Then, one day, I will peacefully leave.
I will then go around the world saying, look at that house, how clean, how wonderfully decorated, how modern... and I didn't fight to keep it, I left peacefully without firing a shot.

Other, than some individuals that acted contrary to imperial policy of the government the British have every reason to be proud of their legacy.

Typical Anglo.
The policy of Argentina towards indigenous inhabitants and Africans was STANDARD in the excepted values of the period”.
At the time, the policy of Argentina, AND THE UNITED STATES, and CANADA, and AUSTRALIA, and NEW ZEALAND, and SOUTHERN AFRICA.... was to place natives in reservations, or find ways to decrease their population. Clear the land for WHITE EUIANS. That was CONSTITUTIONAL policy. White Australia, Apartheid, Jim Crow, Canada's stolen Babies, et al.
So when the Anglo nations above did it, it must be measured with the standards of 1850 or 1900. When Argentina is the one under discussion, the standard is 2016.

The rapid disappearance of blacks from Argentina has been attributed to racial genocide on the part of the Argentine government. Argentine President Domingo Sarmiento is noted for claiming that blacks can have no part in Argentine society. The Argentine government was known to have carried out similar ethnic cleansing of the countries Native American population. Historians that criticize claims of black casualties in the civil wars often cite the fact that women did not fight in the Argentine wars, yet black women disappeared simultaneously with men in Argentina. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Argentine
”It has been alleged that the president of Argentina from 1868 to 1874, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, sought to wipe out blacks from the country in a policy of covert genocide through extremely repressive policies (including possibly the forced recruitment of Africans into the army and by forcing blacks to remain in neighborhoods where disease would decimate them in the absence of adequate health care).
Tellingly, Sarmiento wrote in his diary in 1848: “In the United States… 4 million are black, and within 20 years will be 8 [million]…. What is [to be] done with such blacks, hated by the white race? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Argentine
As a result, in some places in the interior of the country, Africans and people of African descent made up more than fifty percent of the population in these areas according to Jonathan C. Brown. According the George Reid Andrews in his book The Afro-Argentines of Buenos Aires, 1800-1900, Buenos Aires’s population itself was a third black at the time of the revolution.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro-Argentine

”Sarmiento was one of the most influential .. was to prove the racial theories of the genetic inferiority of the indigenous and Africans that he posited in Facundo, one of the most read Argentine books. Much of Sarmiento’s writing includes overt racism in the form of justifying colonial violence and supporting ethnic cleansing. …convinced him of the existence of two types of people, civilized and barbaric. .. Anything else, criollo, indigenous, and Afrodescendant was by default archaic and barbaric (Katra 1994). …it is also important to note the underlying exclusion of non-Euro-descended peoples. For example in De la educación popular, … indigenous groups were excluded for their “ineducability.” Afro- Argentines, still slaves at the time the work was written, had even less of a place in Sarmiento’s ...vision for progress and modernization (Katra 1996). .... It is clear that as the mediator and founder of modern Argentina Sarmiento did not envision gauchos and Afro- Argentines as part of the new society. Thus, it is not surprising that the Generation of 1880 sought systematic ways to eliminate Afro-Argentines who were seen as less than the gauchos and caudillos that, “at least could be educated.”

But, prior to a British presence in India, there had been at least ten devastating famines. George Monbiotis is political activist who is sincere in his efforts to promote his own agenda. The problem with such zealots is they either get it somewhat right or miss spectacularly . For example if you examine his sources, for example Mike Davis. He also contributes to the British monthly Socialist Review, the organ of the Socialist Workers Party of Great Britain. …He is a self-defined international socialist and Marxist-Environmentalist” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Davis_(scholar) So you have a radical who's bias makes him as unreliable as your reactionary historians.
As for the Mau Mau of Kenya they burnt to death other tribes, and it was their opposition that ultimately defeated them The Home Guard formed the core of the government's strategy as it was composed of loyalist Africans, not foreign forces like the British Army and King's African Rifles. By the end of the emergency, the Home Guard had killed 4,686 Mau Mau, amounting to 42% of the total insurgents. The capture of Dedan Kimathi on 21 October 1956 in Nyeri signified the ultimate defeat of the Mau Mau and essentially ended the military offensive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Davis_(scholar)
