I have an idea. How about a referendum. We’ll see who the Falklanders want to belong to.

Since no Argentines live on the islands, its pretty clear how such a referendum would turn out, I think.

So now the question is, how many Argentines is Cristina willing to kill in order to claim a land where no Argentines live and none have ever lived? Do you suppose this is about oil? Do you suppose that the Argentines are prepared to wage a war for oil?

That doesn’t sound very nice, does it?

A lot of it is national pride. The people like it when they’re part of a strong country. It wouldn’t matter if the islands were just dirt.

[plain talk]

thats the correct answer. self-determination. let the people on the island decide

[Palmetto Patriot]

It’s all about oil.
