The claim follows a new approach in international law which holds that a nation's legitimately-held territory can extend up to 350 miles from its coast, if it can verify that it is part of the shoreline's underlying continental shelf. Where did this law come from? And what about overlapping claims? Nonetheless, I doubt that WE will ever exert such rights, even when legitimate. Our job is to let the NWO nibble us into small fragments, this to "level the playing field".

One falklands war was par for the course. Two is rediculous. Britain ought make a deal with Argentina while a marginally sane government is in place and worry about other stuff instead of trying to get a bigger stake in the oil market.

Yep, the Iron Lady is no longer in charge
the Brits could end up with egg on their faces over this one. Not to mention that recent history has shown that the British military can come across as less than stellar in their bravery and combat ability.

Argentina senses that the Muslim Caliphate of Britain will not fare too well if there is another war. Argentina has a better chance this time with what Britain has at its chief this time around...he’s no Maggie Thatcher...

I read a novel on the continuing saga of the Falkland Islands, can’t remember the name of it; Argentina kicks the crap out of the Brits and renames them the Las Malvinas Islands.

The kindest things I can say about the Argentinians is that they behave like Latin America's "muslims".
Delusional, confrontational and obsessed with perceived insults. Also incompetent.
