    That’s the pot calling the kettle black. Last time I checked the Argentine government is 1-0 for starting wars over the Falklands and 0-1 for winning one.

      Not really, I spend time in English and argentinian communities and I see more British nationalists going apeshit anytime the subject gets brought up, i mean, look at your comment. They also project wild opinions and have baseless assumptions on the general argentian populations opinion on the war. Its kinda nuts. Argentinians have really negative feelings as it relates to their country any time the topic gets brought up and don’t really think about the falklands the same way British nationalists think they do.

        So do I once again need to point out the obvious.

        Argentina started a war over an island that contained British nationals and has never been populated by anything other than British nationals.

        Argentina continually refused to have the case of sovereignty heard by the International Court of Justice. Despite the UK offering twice.

        And this thread is still full of Argentinian supporters sprouting bullshit factually inaccurate claims.

        But yes it is the British who are unreasonable in this instance. 🙄

          I’ll take back what I said if you can link me three of these comments that this thread is full of.
