I am amazed about the number of lines dropped in this post!!!
As I said some days before, we must talk as gentlemen but please do not distort the history!! Why frenchs have to take the control of the islands? The Argentinan goverment was entitled in 1810 and by that time Spain had the control over the islands, and all the territories which belongs to Spain came to Argentina, not to the previous countries.
If you want to believe that those islands are yours... cheers for you! but who used to live there? EXILES. But now the situation has changed... it seems that there is oil, and the islands are important for you? I bet my right hand that if there were no oil at all this topic will not have place.
And for those who are claiming about if Venezuela should help Argentina, just remember what Chile, France and USA did in 1982. I do not like Chavez at all, but please try to look back and analise who helped the UK in the past...Pinochet was not a saint, but Mrs Tatcher was not worried in that.
Please go and visit the islands to know of what are you talking about.
