Christ mate you talk some shit, Argentina has never had a valid claim, They invaded last time and lost, maybe you and few of your 5th column buddies can go and help out with the next "democratic" election they have in Argentina.
Which bit of argentina being closer to the falklands is shit exactly? saying that you have a valid claim because you stuck a flag in something a couple hundred years ago is hillarious. We should go take back hong kong whilst we are on, damn chinese stealing our colony.
Not really,the dutch sighted them first then the french had the first outpost on the island then followed by the English/British until 1776,Spain didn't enter the field until 1776-1811,So were is the Argentina claim? If anything it's the French who have the better claim closely followed by the British then the Spanish.
1823 it was settled by River Plate (pre Argentina) and then was taken back in 1833 by the Brits again!
I fail to see where if anywhere Argentina has any sort of claim to these islands? We have had British Subjects on these islands for decades longer than any other country way before anybody actually started complaining about it.
Who cares if it's closer? Jersey is closer to France than to England you don;t here them kicking up a fuss, distance is irelevant.
Hong Kong is and was completely different and for some reason always brought up by the Argy lovers although Hong Kong was nothing like the Falklands.
