Argentina is using this issue as a distraction from their internal failures.
Kirchner would be a fool to use any military option.
She would get the same result as General Galtieri did in 1982. Her government would fall.
But in these desperate economic times bluffing and blustering about possible military action helps both President Kirchner and Prime Minister Cameron, whose economies are in lousy shape.
Because it worked so well the last time.
I think a reasonably honest person reviewing the evidence will conclude that Argentina’s claim to the islands is pretty weak.
