  Malvinense 1833

  Hello Mercopress, you conveniently forgot a historical date that is important to mention to refresh the memory of the English.
  On January 3, 1833, the warships Clío and Tyne expelled the Argentine inhabitants of Puerto Soledad, under threat of combat and lowering the Argentine flag.
  The English had not had a presence since the recognition of Spanish sovereignty and their subsequent withdrawal in 1774.
  I'm not going to do all the work for you, I was just stopping by to remind you of this.
  Mercopress Memory, Memory.

  You are one idiotic pathetic sad little troll, and you lie through your teeth too, Britain never recognized Spanish sovereignty, your lie number one, Britain did have a presence on the islands with constant visits by ships, your lie number 2, Britain expelled no civilians from the islands just the murdering raping military who where going to leave any way, lie number 3, and i am happy to remind you, long live the Falklands, long live the islanders,

  “On January 3, 1833, the warships Clío and Tyne expelled the Argentine inhabitants of Puerto Soledad, under threat of combat and lowering the Argentine flag”.
  
  
  But they didn't though did they Malvi.
  
  Shall we just stick to the facts as it is 2025, the facts in Pinedos own logs, as he was there, and neither of us were.
  
  On January 2nd 1833, the SS Sarandi was packed up and ready to leave the Falklands with its crew under Captain Luis Pinedo, and the remnants of the Vernet business who wished to leave the islands. Pinedo had ordered a small militia (who had already mutinied, murdered and raped in the 8 weeks they'd been on the islands) to remain, against their will despite the fact they had commissioned the Rapid to return them to the mainland.
  
  Captain Onslow of the Clio did indeed lower the Argentine flag, allowed the Sarandi to leave (as it planned to do) and allowed the militia to leave (as they wished to do).
  
  So, NO ARGENTINE INHABITANTS WERE EXPELLED UNDER THE THREAT OF COMBAT. The fact you need to repeat that lie again and again proves that you know your argument has failed. It is hilarious to watch you troll these boards with things you know to be false because you lost the argument.
  
  Britain had indeed left the islands in 1765, only ever recognised Spanish sovereignty of East Falkland and never relinquished their claim.
  
  Argentina had 23 years to establish a working population on the islands between 1810-1833, and despite a couple of dubious attempts, failed to do so, and whatever minuscule moral claim that may have existed was utterly relinquished with their illegal invasion in 1982 costing 900 lives and littered with war crimes.
  
  So, allowing two ships to peacefully leave (that planned to anyway) in 1833 versus costing 900 lives in 1982 with an illegal invasion...and you think you have the moral high ground?
  
  Sorry Malvi, you are a liar, a fraud and a coward...just thought I'd remind you!

  1833, why oh why do you keep posting your silly childish nonsense, all you are achieving is to make yourself look stupid, every claim you have put forward has been debunked over and over and over again, you are like a little mouse stuck on a spinning wheel and cant get off it, you now know what you post is not true , why you believed the Juntas lies in the first place beggars belief, i know its hard for you to accept but be a man not a fanatical fraud
