New Falklands War Brewing

[Earl of Rochester]

Britain's isolation on Falklands grows with 'anti-colonial' Brazil snub - Telegraph

The word on the wire via emails between ex-senior officers from the UK forces is that USAN Union of South American Nations - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia is planning a diplomatic 'assault' on the UK (including sanctions on exports) in an effort to 'restore the Malvinas to their rightful owners.'

I doubt whether in today's socio-politicl-economic climate that any UK leader would be willing pull another 'Maggie' and chances are that if a comprehensive petition is made by the nations of South America, Britain will probably yield 'something' to the Argies.

Just goes to prove that though few Argentinians have lived on the Falklands, the outcrops still seem to be of some importance to them!
