Argentina has threatened to defend its rights and interests after the first sizeable discovery of oil in disputed waters off the Falkland Islands, a find that has racheted up tensions with Britain.
Jorge Taiana, Argentinas Foreign Minister, declared that British actions in the region were illegal and unilateral and warned that his country would take all possible lawful steps to impede British oil exploration and production there.

Maybe Hillary! could mediate?? She really alienated many Brits when she suggested that Argentina should talk to Britain about the Falklands. The Falklands are BRITISH. The people who live there are BRITISH.
Rhetorical question.
I thought the Brits were muslim, like the rest of Europe.
Anybody here remember that Johnny Carson joke about the last conflict?
It went something like:
You can tell the Argentinian Army is gearing up for war, they were seeing installing back-up lights on their tanks.
Note to Argentinians “Piss Off Wankers “
Greedy amigos coming after daneros ASAP
Argentina’s only claim to the Falklands is that they’re kinda nearby. It would be much akin to us claiming Bermuda, just cause it’s there.
Guess they forget their last lesson...
Argentina is a Chavez whore...Obama loves Chavez...Brits hate the US. The Brits, when they were still a country, could take a stand and kick the shi’ite out of Argentina. But now they have Sharia law so who knows.

Hey Argies! You want some more of this? Come and get it!
Thats kinda funny
The Arab side.
Where have you gone Maggie Thatcher, the world turns its lonely eyes to you, wo wo wo.
Enough with the metro-sexual appeasers. The west needs real backbones and real integrity.
Anyone remember how the Harriers made monkeys out of the Argentine AF in the first Falklands War?
Would that we could find a good Thatcher here. Britain needs another one, too.
But noooooooooo, the Tinos are so locked into their stupidity and entitlement culture, they are like a bunch of whiny little brats.
If they do go to war again, I hope the Brits don't just sink the Tinos fleet, but drop some bombs on Buenos Aires. What a bunch of maroons.
Only if you believe myth and crap.
We do not hate America or Americans.
Not so fast, think about it.
They are breeding like rats. The number one name for a boy in Britain used to be Jack. Now it’s Mohammed.
No Joke.
