  By saying ...''he is confident of recovering the Falklands through diplomacy '' qualifies president Javier Milei as a true Narnian inasmuch that he 'is living in a parallel world of his own making that is devoid of reality.'
  
  Perhaps one of his followers would like to give an example of one piece of international law, just one, that Argentina can put before an international court that supports their claim to the Falkland islands?

  About time the world learned the actual Truth.
  In 1833 when the British went down to RELAIM
  The Falklands they first claimed and settled in 1765 ,
  They evicted no civilians- just the temporary
  States of the River Plate,s militia ,who had been there only a short time having murdered their first Commanding Officer , and the women os some of them.
  All the Civilians were addressed by the British Naval Commander and offered the right to stay freely and carry on businesses and accept British Rule and the right to become British Citizens
  Only 2 couples - one Brazilian and one Uruguayan, voted to leave - and did so with the militia.
  All the rest - including those from was to
  become Argentina - decided freely to stay.
  The names of civilians who left and those who stayed are in the Argentine Naval Archives of 1833
  And in the Royal Navy Archives
  So please Argentines - stop lying to the world.
  
  The last of those original settlers - a-lady of Argentine Origen passed away in the 1860s and her headstone is in Stanley Cemetery
