Isn't Argentina a product of colonialism? Do they speak Incan? Or some European language? Weren't the current population's ancestors also transferred to the islands?

Don't you love how the socialist promises to protect the islanders' interests but not their wishes? So the Falklands islanders are mere children, unable to determine their own best interests; while ONLY the socialist tyrant knows whats best for them.

This will not be resolved until the Brits pop a nuke on Buenos Aires. I hate to put is so simply but there’s no way to reason with thieves.

Argentina systematically wiped out their indigenous population—you have to look far and wide to find any Indian or mestizo blood (that hasn’t moved there recently). The Spaniard and Italian immigrants were very thorough in their colonialism.

Hate to break it to ya, Cristina ol’ gal, but the Falklands aren’t exactly Hong Kong. And you sure as hell ain’t the ChiComs.

...Obama rushed his personal envoy to the Maldives, to bring peace to that hemisphere.

These islands never belonged to Argentina and they have no right to them. They are British, the people there overwhelmingly want to be part of the UK / Britain. Even if were to say Britain has no right to them, that would still give Argentina no right to them. This is not even debatable. Argentina’s claim is a purely a 100% made-up myth.

I wonder what percentage of Argentines actually care a whit about the Falklands.

“The Falklands Islands will be under Argentinian control within 20 years, the South American country’s foreign minister, Héctor Timerman, has said “

Translation: “There’s no way we can take it by force”.

This is nothing more than a diversionary tactic to take the attention of the Argentinians away from their domestic problems at home. Hyper inflation being one of them ...
