“Peru has been a traditional ally of Argentina. Liberated from the Spanish empire by General Jose de San Martín the two countries have a regional geopolitical situation with neighbouring Chile,.....”
Nov 30th, 2021 - 05:34 pm - Link - Report abuse +3“Guillermo Carmona was recently in Peru to prop support for the campaign planned to reinstate the Falklands/Malvinas dispute top of the country's international agenda....”
Just another useless effort by Carmona - it certainly doesn't say much about Peru's foreign policy......
And, to believe they were liberated by General José de San Martin, is a load of crap, but it's what they teach kids at school in Peru, and in Argentina.
Fact is, San Martin was a coward and a thief.....who really cleared the way for the Chileans and the Peruvians to get rid of the Spaniards, was Lord Thomas Cochrane, as Commander-in-Chief of the Chilean navy (before he was reinstated in the British Navy and became Admiral) ; San Martin was the leader of the land forces, but 'somehow' always found a way to be delayed, and miss the battles in which he was supposed to support Cochrane who attacked from the sea....just a coincidence which occurred more than once.
Near the end of the liberation war, San Martin showed he had other plans, and actually declared himself “Protector of Peru”, and tried to co-opt Cochrane into breaking ties with Chile, in exchange for the title of First Admiral of Peru.....Cochrane declined the offer.
After seeing his plans go south, San Martin then used his men to loot the riches of the elite in Lima, and proceeded to set sail to Spain with his ill-gotten gains....
Cochrane caught on to his betrayal, but let him set sail...he then went after him, and once out of sight of land, boarded his ship and relieved him of his loot - which he later returned to the Limeño elite - and sent San Martin back to Spain, empty handed.
So much for the myth of a wanna-be tyrant , and coward.

Dec 01st, 2021 - 03:33 pm - Link - Report abuse +1Carmona is just trying to justify his job....he, as well as his mission are irrelevant outside of Argyland.
”This in other words means making the Malvinas question not only an Argentina question but a regional cause, with which the Peruvians are so identified”.
His attempt to turn a purely Argy issue in a regional cause is weak and pathetic....Brazil for one, prefers the Falklands as they are. And what interest could Peru, on the Pacific coast of South America, have in the Falklands ???
Chicureo
We have talked before about Cochrane and the liberation war in South America, and it is pathetic how some nationalistic historians deliberately misrepresent historical facts.
In Brazil, later on in life, but never too late, I realized that half the stuff they teach the kids about Brazilian history, besides going into irrelevant detail (not enough important stuff to write about ?) is not the entire truth (they omit the facts that might look bad and embellish what suits them).
This year has indeed been a strange one, in many aspects.....will be nice to the end of it...and hope that the next will be better.......always the optimist..................................... Nevertheless, good to see that both you and Pugol are alive and kicking !

Dec 02nd, 2021 - 06:43 pm - Link - Report abuse -2Chicureo, besides obviously studying about Cochrane's achievements in Peru, Chile and Brazil, did you ever read any books on his life ? One of many that I've read, and probably mentioned before, is the “Narrative of Services in the Liberation of Chili, Peru and Brazil, from Spanish and Portuguese Domination” (02 volumes), written by Cochrane himself, and tells the facts as they were.
“Although the political situation in South America is uncertain — 2022 should be exceptionally profitable!”
Agree, the political situation and uncertainty in South America, which unfortunately seems to be a constant - each government that takes over ignores and usually discontinues the good done previously, the countries' basic needs and focuses mainly on the personal gain of its members, and power, for the sake of power - won't affect me very much, but it will increase social unrest, poverty and political polarization... ....not good for any country, much like all this 'wokeness' and 'leftism' floating around, destroys values and creates chaos.
But, as they say, “It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good”.....

Certainly does, which implies that some (versions) are right, others not so much (twisted the facts to make their national heroes look good - fake news is nothing new), or simply ignore what goes against their heroes narrative.
The dozen or so different authors who did extensive research based on the official Naval documents of the time, newspaper articles and Cochrane's letters - both received and sent - only differ in their style of writing, but all give you an accurate account of the events.
Have been following political events in Chile - not too closely, I confess - but one thing stands out (as in all LatAm countries) .....the people's incapacity to see through the politicians' bs promises, and their short memory.... despite continual economic disasters as a result of leftist governments, they are still easily fooled into thinking socialism is utopia.
Meanwhile, “back at the ranch”, good to see that we can still enjoy life, despite an envious F*cktwitt who feels a warm sensation in the seat of his pants as he distributes “dislike” points to those he can't keep up with....he's a real joke..

The all important floral decorations are all in place and seven guests invited, with fresh seafood and some really marvelous hors d'oeuvres.
The canapés will start with scallop skewers with fresh mango and saffron sauce to begin the meal and today’s menu is elaborate, including a marvelous Strawberry Fraisier — consisting of a light chiffon cake flavored with Lillet blanc, fresh strawberries, and a sliceable pastry cream
Our typical ceviche recipe we use use frozen salmon filets (as the freezing kills most parasites) and let the fish only slightly defrost so to easily cube the fish into uniform cubes with a sharp knife.
About a half cubed raw salmon with 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, cherry tomatoes. 1/4 cup red onion thinly cut, 1 chili pepper to your taste, 1/4 cup cilantro chopped, 3 Hass avocados uniformly cubed, salt and pepper to taste. In a large bowl add the citrus juice and fish and wait for 5 minutes then add the rest and toss.
As far as our misfit residing in Utah — everyone has learned his actual misery and pathetic plight. (I hope Skippy does seek bariatric surgery — as he truly needs it desperately.)

Malignant Narcissist.
A special sub-type of narcissist that has also some traits of ASPD, such as aggressiveness, deceitfulness, and remorselessness. They are often sadistic and gain pleasure from hurting others.
Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD). A type of personality disorder in which a person has grandiose fantasies of success and power with few or no achievements behind the fantasies. People with the disorder are constantly comparing themselves to others and feeling envious. They may also feel others are envious of them. They believe they are unique and entitled to special treatment, admiration, and obedience. In addition, they lack emotional empathy and have a willingness to exploit others for their own benefit.
Neurotypical. A term once used to describe individuals who were not on the autism spectrum, it is now used as a term to contrast individuals who do not have a particular mental or behavioral disorder with those who do.
Overt Narcissist. A “garden-variety” or typical narcissist whose emotional displays, grandiosity and feelings of entitlement and superiority are on obvious display to others.
Psychopath/Sociopath. Considered to be sub-types of ASPD where the criteria must include disregard of laws and norms.

“When the Narcissist Fails
When things begin to sour for the narcissist here is what we can expect: They will try to first misdirect us or claim there is nothing to the allegations or circumstances. If evidence is presented, they will seek to have it invalidated or claim that it is false, but most certainly not true.
Any evidence presented, and those that present it will be attacked vindictively. The better the evidence the more aggressive the attack. Individuals who are doing the right thing unethical behavior, or failings are to be discredited, and bullied. The narcissist will engage enablers to simultaneously attack those who offer proof or evidence, even if it embarrassingly exposes their behavior as that of spineless sycophants.
Expect lies to increase, with evidence to the contrary. Lies are always the number one tool of the MN. The lies must increase to the point of incredulity. The narcissist will expect, the enablers to lie for them.
Some will hound, stalk, those they deem responsible.
That is when we have to worry the most. One of note, was to— to make Germany great again.

So, easy to conclude that if they defend such a system, it's because they are either ignorant idiots and depend on handouts, or stand to gain something 'for-free' through it (usually hardworking people's taxes)
If you can't make it in a free-market society, it's obvious you will defend a system whereby you can be a lazy b*stard, while someone else (the taxpayer) supports you.
