    Argentina, last of the international big hitters! Why are they worried that Brazil might question their “sovereignty claim”?

    Mr. FitzRoy... (aka “Chalten” in Patagonia)

    Your ignorance..., apparently driven by this Engrish brainwashing propaganda organ..., is almost touching...
    Therefore..., just for your kind info...:

    1) “Argentina” hasn't requested nothin'... It has been an “unofficial & informal” request by the outgoing administration Foreign Office..., because they are literarlly shitting their pants with the prospect that the Engrish Foreign & Colonial Office was planning to make a propaganda happening out of that Malvinas fly-route inauguration...

    2) The outgoing administration is shitting their pants about this issue because they are currently under judicial investigation about the legality of their whole “Understanding” with them Engrish...

    3) The judge in charge of this aforementioned judicial investigation is going to make publi...,c in a few hours..., his veredict about the legality of the Malvinas flight and the information that has reached this humble Patagonian's little wooden shed is very encouraging...;-)

    4) By the way... Some of us are waiting in anticipation for the release of the passenger list of that inaugural flight..., currently in the judge's posession...
    We expect to find some interesting surnames on it...

    See you soon...

    Tinkle old fruit, how very childish of Argentina to ask “ officially or unofficially ” for discretion.It has nothing to do with your country what Brazil or indeed other countries decide to do.

    I'm really sorry, think, I just don't understand the crap you're spouting. I don't understand what you mean by “Chalten” either. You really are on form today. I can only assume that you want to flight to not go ahead, but that is alright with us, we won't mind.

    Shhhhhhh...
    Don't tell nobody..., copper..., but...
    As a matter of fact I would like this inaugural flighr to depart from Sao Paulo to increase the pressure it has provoked in the last 48 hours...;-)
    (I must admit I feel a bit sorry for that little group of Yank Anglers that just wanted to wet their flies down here in Malvinas...)

    FitzRoy - you said “I don't understand what you mean by “Chalten” either.”

    Mount FitzRoy is a peak on the border between Chile and Argentina in Patagonia, and the local name is Cerro Chalten. (But maybe you knew that really...and were just winding Think up)

    Roger, judges in Argentina are extremely dedicated; just look at all the prosecutions against CFK. How many other countries can boast that they've charged both their last two presidents with high treason? It's nearly as schizophrenic as Think's opinions...

    Mount Fitzroy is cool though, and El Chaltén is a very nice town. Would recommend.

    I even enquired with the hotel this afternoon about another booking but in the end I didn’t bother. Let’s hope I don’t have to sleep rough tomorrow night.

    Hey, Think! It's nice to see you're still around. I used to post here a long while ago - stopped at around 2012. Brazilian here with lots of sympathy for the Argentinian cause in the Malvinas and for the Latin American left. But not very hopeful for the future if I'm being honest.

    Hello Sr. Forgetit87...

    I do remember you... Quite balanced comments and a clear position..., I recall...

    To also be honest with you..., I Think I have been up that ***“not very hopeful for the future”*** rollercoaster all to many times during my not so short Latinamerican life...

    But...
    Being that the way the cookie crumbles down here...
    One better takes ones heavy defeats lightly and enjoys ones feathery victories deeply...

    Saludos...
