Obama Incites Second Falklands War
by Bill Levinson
We said more than 2.5 years ago that Barack Obama’s offer to “mediate” between Argentina and the United Kingdom over British territory could easily encourage a Second Falklands War, and Argentina’s President, Cristina Kirchner, is sounding more and more like Leopoldo Galtieri every day. The only thing in her favor is that she is considerably better looking than Galtieri. As reported by Fox News, here is Obama’s Zimmerman Telegram–or actually worse, because Germany’s offer to help Mexico reconquer the western United States was contingent on the U.S. attacking Germany first.
- In a move one British conservative analyst called “hugely insulting to Britain,” the Organization of American States earlier this week adopted a declaration calling for negotiations between the United Kingdom and Argentina over the “sovereignty” of the Falkland Islands. While the U.S. delegation did not speak in support of the measure, it ultimately joined a consensus adopting it.
Cristina Kirchner has taken this as a U.S.-issued license to channel dictator Leopoldo Galtieri to the extent that the United Kingdom now finds it necessary to plan for a Second Falklands War, courtesy of the United States’ Buffoon-In-Chief–a buffoon with so much contempt for the United States and its allies that he just nominated an admitted war criminal and therefore felon to be its Secretary of State.
I am for Argentine in this, all down the line whatever, and will always be
Were it not for Britain’s gross hypocrisy in occupying the Falklands thousands of miles away from its shores while persistently attacking Israel over “occupation” of territory lawfully belonging to Israel, I could take their side. But out of spite, I support Argentina.
So did Menachem Begin
@ CuriousAmerican:
I see.
And what might your little point be? american?
That Menachem Begin supported Argentina.
@ CuriousAmerican:
I support the Taliban. Muslim Jews kicking ass.
@ CuriousAmerican:
Really, Curious who likes the British, then or now? We also sold them our version of the French Mirage and sold all our old used Kafirs to Columbia and Singapore I think Indonesia or Malaysia as well.
Israel didn’t become the worlds 3rd or 4th leading weapons exporter by not selling to willing buyers, that would really be stupid.

Since your opinion is so subjective we won’t credit it with any validity.
Rule Britannia, Britannia Rules the Waves ! Although I deeply resent UK anti-Israel policies, I would rather not see the Falklands in the hands of a basically failed dictator ruled state. Argentina is no lover of Zion either !
A war between the UK and Argentina is kind of like watching Hamas and Fatah fight it out.
You want them both to lose.
long tongs belong in the ass
@ Allen:
Damn straight. Thanks for bringing a touch of common decency to this thread.
No you cannot sit in the middle. You can never sit in the middle. Even if you do nothing else at least state your position. This is the same issue as in case of Mubarak and gadhafi, even milosevic. It is endless. It is also why the Stalinists refused to oppose Hitler in 1933. You can never sit it out. Sitting it out IS a political position.
You do not have to like anything about Argentina to support Argentina against Britain over the Falklands or Malvinas. Without conditions.
Similarly you do not have to like Netanyahu to defend Netanyahu against say Livni. In that case you defend netanyahu against Livni without conditions, or unconditionally.
These are basic principles which some find hard to learn.
the British people are a great people … in Britain where they belong…but essentially it is the hypocricy of say the BBC that we all have to fight against
There you go! Felix supports Argentina in order to destroy Western Capitalism and Western Culture He has only one agenda to destroy the West and replace the Western Fascists with Communist Fascists.
So now we know with absolute proof which side to support if we want to stay alive.
…
Argentina has no need of the Falklands – this is just obsolete Jingoist Nationalism an expression of fascist ambition- – someone stirring up external trouble to get internal political power. The whole thing is senseless and is just as absurd as France turning over it’s offshore islands in the Atlantic to Canada or the USA returning Manhattan to the native Indians.
…
All those places are already culturally settled – In fact Argentina can become Britain and Britain can become Argentina for all that matters – there is no reason to practice jingoism here. If Argentina wages peace then the Falklands, Britain and Argentina can all live in equality and harmony.
I think there should be a rule that when any country tries to start a war over borders and territories for reason of jingoist nationality the UN should just have them nuked in order to effect regime change and sanity. . If we had a real UN that is.
If any country turns rogue and starts waging war instead of peace where should be a policy of exterminating the leadership of that country so we can exterminate the fascist gene from the human race.
…
The evaluation for actions must always be on moral principle rather than bigotry for the ultimate constructivism.
“let them all kill each other because they are differ nt ethnicities /countries” the problem with that is today the perosn will advocate killing ‘them’ and tomorrow suddenly they will decide that “you” are one of ‘them”. The moral principle is alway what people do , not what group they belong to.

sadly, herein lies the answer, laura
These South American countires are allied with Islamic Fascists, the Chinese and the Ruskies against North America.
That’s why Felix loves them.
They see us as their enemy. It’s best not to support them and crush their economic and territorial ambitions when we can. I mean it really is for their own good.
@ Allen:
F-Britannia
Now I give youse something else to worry about. Assad’s Doomsday Option,
On the plus side Israel could wipe out Hezbollah and nuke Iran in the fog of war that follows.
