Another Falklands Thread: This Time, It'll Cost 50 Pesos

[Glorious KASSRD]

*Sigh.*

When we say British claims on the antartic are not evidence of a British conspiracy to conquer the universe and shit in everybodies cheerios, that does not mean we are supporting the antartic claims.
Find someone who supported them.
You've made a claim, source it. Go find the quote.

No, I never said that all i am saying is that the British will exploit those resources underneath after 2060, they need to be stopped

Gve one piece of evidence the British are planning on exploiting the resources of Antarctica at any point in time.

[Calimera II]

Fuck it.
HERCULEAN RE-RAILING TIME.

I think the Argentinians do themselves a disservice by banging on about their claims to the falklands. It's clearly used by their government to distract them from pressing domestic issues.
By playing into this constantly, they do themselves more damage economically and socially than the capture of the Islands could ever justify, even if they had a legitimate claim.

And I disagree with you because the 50 pesos bill was announced last year when the country was in better shape.

[The Confederacy of Nationalism]

Oh man, fresh water, what an INCREDIBLY rare and expensive resource that is ))))

Oil

are you telling me that you believe it is economically feasible and actually safe to drill Antarctica for a few drops of oil?

Manisdog turned up.
When was it going to not derail?

Don't fucking lie, I never derailed thread, you guys brought India like fucking 50 times in this whole topic, Now you should have the common decency to admit it that was your side of the argument which did that

you need to stop making threads like these

Threads that dare mention the United Kingdom, or threads that allow you to respond?

Better shape is still pretty bad.

two conflicting views on the possibilities or otherwise of Vast Resources Ripe For Exploiting in Antarctica.

Your presence derails threads through your bizarre logic trains rightly causing other posters' minds to bend.

You brought the topic out, your side does it and then you guys don't own up to it, I refused to answer your stupid queries on India but then you eyed my country that is the only time i corrected you people, for I will not stand you eyeing my country at any cost, never shall you do it

Also, as I've pointed out before, just before the war the British government was keen to hand over the island to Argentina. The only stumbling block was the islanders desire to remain a part of Britain. If Argentina had devoted its efforts to winning over the population of the islands rather than invading and then constantly insulting them, they'd probably be in a far better bargaining position.

Give it a couple decades.

You know, when global population is suggested to almost double.

that's none of my concern, because the populations of 1st world nations are stagnating at best.

Yeh. It's still a route they could take. They won't though.

[Calimera II]

Very true (about that this thread is probably going to be locked).

In fairness, it's a thread about news almost a year old and a subject I'm pretty sure has been done before. I'm surprised it lasted this long...

Me too. The news is from April last year, the president just took 10 minutes (some days ago) to annouce that the 50 pesos bill is going to circulate soon.

So, you're confused and an awful person.
I haven't learnt anything here.

[Camelza]

The Falklands are a healthy self-governed democracy, where its people decide regarding their small nation's future through elections, as such they've decided they want to remain a part of Britain and continue to do so up to this very day. The mere existence of Falklanders and their clear decision regarding the matter is the reason that Argentina's claim is against human rights and international law.
Desire the Right!

[Calimera II]

Better shape is still pretty bad.

I wouldn't say pretty bad though. The economic slowdown is mainly caused by the slowdown of big neighbor Brazil.

I am not being a moderator, I am not going to participate in discussions that would being me trouble, the other side derailed this argument ages ago,

"We're going to mark the invasion of a territory we hold NO reasonable claim to... which resulted in a war... we lost, badly."

Just my view, really.

Indeed.

[Kaztropol]

Imperialpowersofkorea still hasn't provided an answer to the questions of:

whether the people born in Antarctica have a right to live there.

whether the Falkland Islanders should be deported.

whether any population that moved due to actions of British monarchs or prime ministers, should be moved back.


these questions are important, and relevant to the status of the islands.

Confused? I know exactly what my position is. Awful person, maybe, but being nice doesn't make empires.

Ah, a voice of reason in the sometimes hilarious chaos and confusion that any thread about this subject inevitable devolves into.

Haven't you spent this thread railing against my country's imperial past?

Yeh but they are Iberians, so you can't pick on them to distract people.
