Argentine Defense Minister Agustin Rossi Friday presided over the ceremony where the Armed Forces commemorated the 39th anniversary of the military landing on the Malvinas/Falkland Islands which eventually led to the 1982 armed conflict with the United Kingdom and promised things will be different a year from now.

Typical tin pot banana republic dictatorship, all ranting and raving and strutting around in big hats thinking you'd mess up the evil English if only you could have another go and weren't shite at everything. All mouth and no trousers as usual.

They found out the hard way that unlike Atahualpa or the Mapuche, the British have more than just sticks and stones with which to defend their territory.

Next year's will be the 40th. Islas Malvinas anniversary..., Argentine Citizen El Think vowes...
Capisce...?
Correct Think- it will be the 40th Anniv. of a country celebrating a war it started by invading a peacefull and pretty well defended territory and in breach of the UN.
Apr 03rd, 2021 - 01:56 pm - Link - Report abuse +11Me thinks Argentina is the only nation inn the World daft enough to celebrate such an event especially as it then went on to ignore and disregard a formal ruling from the UN Security Council passed with a large majority- that it should immediatley withdraw all its Forces - and instead then went on to loose anyway!
Yes by all means - remember those young lads your old half drunk Generals sent to their deaths- after so many hundreds of thousands of you went cheering those same old Generals in the streets 2nd and 3rd April 1082!
Those lads did indeed pay the ultimate sacrifice of a soldier in uniform - even we in the Islands respect that.
Poor Narnia - only two-thirds of the world laughing at its Malvinas myth. Must try harder.

Next year is a round Malvinas Day anniversary...
And it won't be just another Malvinas Day anniversary...
Nice Easter to you too...
Think- Fair Dos- so long as that all the focus is on April 2nd- one can understand it. Next year i t will be just another one from your side, albeit the 40th.

Apr 03rd, 2021 - 10:37 pm - Link - Report abuse +4Ahhh, at last we see the truth, the stinking Kurepi, NogF*ck the F*ckwit, squatting in Argy occupied Patagonia, admits that this “handful of savages” are not so easy to, “put down as soon as possible, by reason or by force”.
Ooops!
Next Malvinas Day won't be just another Malvinas Day anniversary, it will be quite a special one from both sides - ought the UK perhaps to test it's nuclear deterrent capacity somewhere immediately south of Uruguay?
Apr 04th, 2021 - 07:32 pm - Link - Report abuse +3Yes Thimnk- it will be- and I expect our side will. invite your side for a joint commemoration remembrance service to the fallen -;liker the did for the 25th - and your side rejected it - wonder f they will do the same again

“pirate booty”, Kurepi Planter, is most of S. America.

Not so easy when you are trying to steal from Pirates, is it!
Hmmm, the rate things are going in Argentina, I doubt there will be the usual charter flights for families, so yes it will certainly be a different fortieth anniversary. If they can't get a handle on C-19 and vaccinations no one will be visiting.
Apr 05th, 2021 - 10:45 am - Link - Report abuse +4As for celebrating an invasion? The only country in the world to celebrate the start of a war. Most of us give thanks that a war is over, show our gratitude to those who fought for us and remember the dead. What a funny little country Argentina is.
Apart from raping Paraguay and butchering the native Patagonians, the successful start of the war is the neatest thing they have to a victory to celebrate.

Latest UN Working Paper on the Falklands has finally been made public. Very last paragraph, as every year, remains the most important. Still no member of the UN calling for a GA debate on the subject. Not even Argentina.
Apr 07th, 2021 - 11:53 am - Link - Report abuse +2Funny that.
C. Action taken by the General Assembly
74. In its resolution 58/316, the General Assembly decided that the item entitled
“Question of the Falkland Islands (Malvinas)” would remain on the agenda for
consideration upon notification by a Member State. As at the date of the issuance of
the present working paper, no such notification had been received.

Why would anyone want to celebrate the death of 100s of soldiers of an illegal invasion (re-UN) no civilised country would do that, by all means commemorate the soldiers who died in a solemn way,
Apr 07th, 2021 - 08:41 pm - Link - Report abuse +2Thunk, ...... there's always a lot of focus. Never made a difference yet. Seems unlikely that it ever will.
Apr 07th, 2021 - 10:49 pm - Link - Report abuse +2The questions that are not being asked, remain - 1) why has there been no UN Resolution on the Falklands since 1988? 2) why has there been no UN debate since 1988? & 3) why does the C24 fail - every year - to recommend its own draft-resolution for adoption by the UN?

Risible.
I don't Think so..., copper... ;-)
Apr 08th, 2021 - 08:04 am - Link - Report abuse -2So Think, what exactly do you think the focus will be on? How will your government make more of it than they usually do. Casting thinly-veiled hints is all well and good, but in truth, you don't actually have anything substantial to offer up, yourself, do you? It's not like your Minister for Foreign Affairs is constantly phoning you up and asking for your guidance, is it?
Apr 08th, 2021 - 12:22 pm - Link - Report abuse +2So, please, for benefit of all here, what exactly are you hinting at? I know it's not the ICJ, I know it's not the UN and it certainly isn't invasion, so, please do, share your boundless knowledge.

It could be contagious...:-(
If you want to know..., inform yourself...
If not..., keep trolling on the empty seas as usual...
Paraphrasing some of your meaningless trolling from above...:
***What a funny little troll Fitz Roy is.***
Capisce...?
Hardly a troll Think, and if I were I am hardly on the same level of “trollness” as you. So what you are actually saying, if I interpret your last, directed at me, is that you don't actually have anything to say? I am informed and am completely unaware of anything substantial that your debt-ridden government can do, or are willing to do. You purport to be some kind of all-seeing, all-knowing oracle and when we, the masses, hungry for the pearls of wisdom that drip from your keyboard, ask for guidance, we find you empty. Oh well.
