Sean Penn calls Prince William's deployment to Falkland Islands 'unthinkable'


Sean Penn has continued his attack on Britain over the Falkland Islands, calling the Duke of Cambridge's deployment "unthinkable".


Sean Penn believes Argentine President Cristina Fernandez De Kirchner is justified in her desire to reclaim the "Malvinas Islands of Agentina" for her people


Sean Penn and Uruguayan President Jose Mujica are now best of freinds since the actor declared that "Britain is the enemy of the peoples of South America"


Prince Willian is, in Penn's opinion, an agent of dissension who represents Britain's "superior and colonialist supremacy" which "holds South American's and their hopes in contempt" and with his tour to the Falklands being "unthinkable"

The Hollywood actor accused Britain of insensitivity for sending Prince William to the disputed islands claimed by Argentina.

Speaking in Uruguay having met President Jose Mujica, Penn repeated his assertion made in Argentina on Monday that Britain's stance over the Falklands was "colonialist, ludicrous and archaic".

"My oh my, aren't people sensitive to the word colonialism, particularly those who implement colonialism," said the double Oscar winner."

It's unthinkable that the United Kingdom can make a conscious decision to deploy a prince within the military to the Malvinas, knowing the great emotional sensitivity both of mothers and fathers in the United Kingdom and in Argentina who lost sons and daughters in a war of islands with a population of so few.
More tosh here

Penn might have retained a modicum of respect in his twilight years had he kept away from the screen and kept his mouth firmly closed in public. All hope of that is now gone though and the chap clearly has no genuine friends as they would, by now, have told him that his comments display an appauling lack of knowledge of both American and European culture, politics and history.

The Z list actor is flailing around South America in a stupified political daze unaware of how ignorant he is exposing himself to be and how foolish he makes those he associates with to appear!
