Read my lips, Argentina

The Falkland Islands belong to Britain. End of story.

I don't care how many assorted wannabe-dictators and communists in Latin America you have supporting you, and I don't care if you've got Hugo Chavez making a complete arse of himself on Venezuelan TV by appealing to "Mrs Queen" for us to give them to you. They are ours and you're not having them. Let's face it, the only reason you're suddenly kicking off is because a) your economy is in the shit and b) there's 60 billion barrels of oil down there just waiting to be drilled. By us.

So you went crying to the UN? Boo hoo. One of the cornerstones of the UN Charter is the right of all people to self-determination. With that in mind, what do the Falkland Islanders themselves have to say on the subject? Yes, that's right, they want to remain British. What are you going to do about that if you get sovereignty over them? Force them to speak Spanish? Force them to drive on the wrong side of the road? Expel them? I guarantee you that with the memories they still have of what your troops did in 1982 they certainly won't be welcoming you with open arms.

Oh, so you're going to try and disrupt shipping are you? Awww, say it ain't so. I'm sure the Royal Navy will have something to say about that. Sure, the Navy may be a shadow of what it was in 1982, but I guarantee you will get a bloody nose if you tangle with them.

In summation, stop throwing your toys out of the pram and crying to Ban-Ki Moon and the UN. The Falklands are British, as are the people there, and there's fuck all that you can do about it.
