pb I can't think of any short term measure that would work, but why bother when Kirschner is screwing up Argentina's economy better than any sanctions ever would? Despite a lot of hot air from the Casa Rosada the UK has the upper hand militarily, diplomatically and economically. I'm with Whenurhappy on this, the best thing for the UK to do is nothing. I think I might make a point of doing nothing though ;) "We briefly thought about counter sanctions but honestly we can't be bothered <yawn>" |
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". http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/...s_2139061b.jpg Sean Penn believes Argentine President Cristina Fernandez De Kirchner is justified in her desire to reclaim the "Malvinas Islands of Agentina" for her people http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/...2_2139195b.jpg 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" http://lifeisreallybeautiful.com/wp-...ce-William.jpg 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. 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! |
Is Argie corned beef still eaten by UK forces?

"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""
Look like Father and Son to me :cool: |
Does anyone really care about the ramblings of this wife beater?
|
Does anyone really care about the ramblings of this wife beater? a) South American Presidents b) The media c) The impressionable d) The uneducated and perhaps a few more! |
It's a strange world. Kirchner, a strong advocate of womens rights and an admirer of Eva Peron whom she emulates, allies herself politically with an opportunist fading celeb who has form for beating the crap out of his wife with a baseball bat.
The ex wife, Madonna, has herself played the part of Evita, a B list celeb who became the first lady of Argentina. Seņora Kirchner had better watch her back. |
As she lost her husband, maybe she want's something more from Sean than a little public lip service. :cool:
|
...the REALLY odd thing is that no-one can produce a single Argentinian who wants to go & live in the Falklands... |
For sale!
If you need to rub salt in the wound!
BBC News - Falklands War surrender telex to be auctioned Brilliant! :ok: |
Perhaps Mr Penn should be shown the islands of Diego Garcia and Ascension on a map (because for sure he will never have heard of them), and have it explained to him how useful these two British islands are to the US.
|
"It is a rare find of great historical importance and will excite considerable interest from around the world." |
Fox Four
Maybe the Gov't needs to copy it, highlight the following text in a bright highlight pen "Major General Menendez surrendered to me all Agentine Armed forces in East and West Falklands" and "The Falklands Islands are once more under the Government desired " and then send a framed copy to Argentina's President Cristina Kirchner so it arrives at the exact time of the 30th Anniversary of the surrender with a note saying we don't want to have another like this in the future ! |
barry: I agree, but all that would do for Penn is induce a rant about American and British Cololnialism, Gotterdamerung, and why Madonna should never have left him. :p
|
So Mr Penn, when does America go back to the Red Indians?
Nah! Thought not:* |
Remind you of a certain union of liberal Hollywood actors:
They are confronted by the Film Actors Guild (FAG) and a violent battle ensues, which involves panthers being released at the team, and leaving most of the Guild brutally slain, with Alec Baldwin remaining alive as the host of the ceremony... |
'Tis a pity Ricky Gervais isn't hosting the Oscars.... :E
|
Alec Baldwin and Penn should be cellmates... They're both bloody retards.

Hi Stilton,
You would probably have to ask Neil Wilkinson that question. See following link for letters and accounts from Neil Wilkinson and Mariano Velasco. Neil Wikinson also has a claim on a Dagger / Mirage a few days before downing the Skyhawk. All about Neil Wilkinson, Sailor in the Falklands War, British Sailor HMS Intrepid |
Who is Sean Penn and is he important?
