The Malvinas is a LSD fantasy Argentine politicians pull out when they want to distract the peons from the fact that their lives both suck and blow.<<<
100% correct. Anyone looking at the history will see that Argentina has about as strong a claim on the Florida Keys, the Hawaiian Islands or the real Maldives, as it has on the Falklands.

Argentina has a long history of trying to claim island that clearly are not theirs and never were theirs.
Maybe the British should call in the Pope to mediate, that was what got Argentina to quit trying to claim the Beagle Islands from Chile. Otherwise they are going to have to schlep down there every couple of decades and slap Argentina around a bit. Not that they don't deserve to be slapped.
