Hehe, yes, I noticed my spelling mistake and I am usually quite finicky about such things, but on this occasion I was far to lazy to correct it

well my bets are on and I'll be laughing all the way to the bank! And FYI, the UK aren't going to nuke latin america over the Falklands- don't be so naive. Look, I seriously don't want to get into an argument about this. I just think it's extremely presumptous to think that the outcome of this is firmly fixed in the UK's favour.
The entire political landscape of south america has changed in the last 30 years. And an arrogant Britsh presumption of victory could get a lot of people killed. Don't forget that the UK are actually in contravention of UN rules by refusing to simply enter into talks about this issue.

We won't get involved as long as Chavez and pals stay out of it.

They get involved, we get involved. Its very simple.

I don't mean to be an ass man but I think the UK is perfectly competent to handle her own affairs. That said there are many nations that are loyal to the old empire that would pitch in. Take a look at #4:

Hell, even Canada has a better military than Argentina.

Your forgetting Afghanistan. We want to keep the Brits there to help us so in turn we would help Britain if they asked or else we can guarantee they leave Afghanistan and never come back. I'm sure Obama would screw things up but this is what should be on his mind.

Actually, they are not. There is no indiginous population so it doesn't come under the "decolonisation" rules.

Secondly, the UK could easily hold off the entire of SA from taking the Falklands. The RN alone would stop any invasion as no country in SA has ships or Submarines anywhere near as capable as the RN. We'd just sink any taskforce sent towards the islands and we'd have total air superiority, seeing as no SA airforce could maintain CAP over the islands, owing to the distance.

Refusing to enter talks?????

[*SNIP*] We have negotiated with those morons.. And still are...

Plus... Do NOT underestimate the British resolve.. The Island nation of Britain did not own 3/4 of the world through a stiff upper lip and gentlemanly niceness..
Britain is the product of many warrior nations.. You will see that on on a Friday night if someone spilled someone else's pint!.. Hence why the NWO wan'ts it destroyed... Good luck with THAT btw!! Many have tried...lol

Don't think for a moment that Britain has no teeth.....

Big mistake....


One which the social engineers in the UK will find out soon too!!

So true. One of our hobbies is fighting... But we're not daft either, we are tactical, improvisational and resourceful.

My granddad was English... Served in the British army as an infantry commander... So did his dad... And his dad... In fact my granddad was in the Boer war... Met buffalo Bill lol... THATS old lol... Not bad for a bunch of Jewish Zionists

Then I served as a infantry section commander... Strange how history repeats itself huh? Then in the IDF....

I am battle hardened and ready....

NO-ONE touches British land unless they are stupid.....

Sometimes I think Chavez talks just to hear the own sound of his voice.

It's as though the citizens of the Falklands have no say in their own future, but it will be decided by these two countries.

My thoughts are what ever they decide will be honored. If it takes the assistance of other countries to keep them stable, or make a change, then it will probably be offered.

Chest-thumping from Chavez.

The Argentinians don't want a war, the UK doesn't want a war. Please Venezualens, tell him to STFU before he gets one and regrets it.

Don't forget bigotted, racist, thieving, and inbred

I wish for the removal of the Union Jack from my country's flag. It will happen. You bustards took what you could from us - including our youth - and then turned your back on us; so yes, I will step on an Englishman's toes three times.

They have decided, in 1985.

The issue isn't up for discussion.

This thread went from mildly informative to a hilariously juvenile brit circle jerk.

Keep it up.

I'm not bigotted, racist or inbred. The only thing i have ever stolen is a couple of penny sweets and a packets of chewitts when i was a young tear-a-way.

I didn't take anything from you. So quit with the insults.

Whatever... Just keep taking it lol....

Move to London... You will be met by guardian reading assholes who will listen to you... You will get a massive house and fee money.... That should dispell you angst lol...

But that is also what we have been getting for years...

We are done with it...

So don't be surprised when a mushroom wipes you out... Thats what happens when tha stiff upper lip fails...

But thats our tolerance gone... The rest is just form filling...

But ignore the tolerance at your peril....

You're a Kiwi then? Maori or otherwise?

Not entirely sure what you're on about with the "stealing" comments, nor the "turning our back on you" comment... You wanted independance...
