    Oh dear Taenk - caught again, you took the bait ! Just like those big carp in fishing ponds, they get caught time and time again on the same bait ! Never seem able to resist gobbling down the bait. At least you are consistent, consistently gullible that is. Are you able to resist responding this time ?? Bit like so many of your countrymen - just say “Islands” and they jump up and down and babble incoherently, time and time again.

    EuroLat? Sounds like the trade union for Latino Spic dairy farmers.

    ...and what's the best, deadbeat Think can say:
    “Are all of them ~12 PenguinPress's resident Brainwashed Anglo Turnips going to paint slogans on their buses and have badges on their schoolchildren's uniforms?”

    “What other momentous pronouncements might we expect from them ~12 PenguinPress's resident Brainwashed Anglo Turnips ???”

    You have a point Think. What a ridiculous idea.

    BTW, old man. Three questions marks doesn't make it more of a question.

    Do you understand?

    EuroLat sounds like something that might be given for constipation.

    There already is a a peaceful, just and lasting solution to the sovereignty dispute, its called letting the inhabitants of the islands decide. It is the only “a peaceful, just and lasting solution to the sovereignty dispute”.

    “To have the existing sovereignty dispute over the Malvinas Islands, South Georgia, South Sandwich Islands and surrounding maritime areas solved through peaceful means” is not possible so long as Argentina only accepts one solution: A take-over of the F.I. (and other archipelagos where their claims are even weaker) and the total integration of them into the Arg republic. This solution can never be accepted. So why waste the tax-payers' money with some totally meaningless “dialogues” (or Argentine “monologues”)? Just drop the sovereignty claim (use the famous umbrella) and start cooperate when it comes to practical questions. It could be a win-win solution for all parties.

    Let’s enter the hypothetical for a moment.

    What would Argentina do with the islands and the inhabitants? Presently it doesn’t respect their human rights to self determination, so does that mean if Argentina took over the islands would any of the following happen:

    Forcing Argentine laws over a primarily British common-law following society.
    Forcing the islanders to speak Spanish and replacing all English named stuff with Spanish words to wipe out the English identity there.
    Or would they go with the ultimate whammy and just expel the islanders?

    I’m pretty sure it would be the last one as I don’t think the islanders would cooperate with any Argentine administration…

    Argentina: Poor. Poorly educated. Poor. Tiny military. Poor. No global influence. Poor. No industrial might. Poor. Corrupt government. Poor.

    Nothing to worry about.

    The best way to “settle the dispute” is if Argentina just accept the situation as it de facto is, and not try to wind the clock back some 190 years. Argentina is one of the biggest countries in the world (rank 8, I think) and it is not overpopulated. It does not need any more “Lebensraum”. Let the people in the F.I. decide their own future. If they want to stay under the protection of the U.K. it is in no way a threat to Argentina. If dropping the “Malvinas question” from the agenda Argentina could concentrate on more important things, such as making their country a “land of the future” again, as it was 100 years ago, before it was destroyed by corruption, peronism and juntas.

    So yet another none binding call to talk.

    I can just see it now.

    Arg: Malvinas son Argentinos!

    UK: Do you want to be Argentine?

    FK: No thanks

    Arg: Sulks until next meeting.

    And on it goes.
