Knock it off the pair of you and keep it on topic for crying out loud.
You and Joe are like little kids in the playground.
Or just go to bed!

 

[imamartian]

Hang on !!! you lot saying keep it on topic.. go and check out the IronNaz post that started this and see what you think !!!!

 

[conny]

Agreed he started it with one post but when you and Joe start theres never any ending.
As Di says, this is a serious topic about 2 men who may well be dead so lets think about them instead of the argies or ourselves for once!

It's their island if you look at a map.
Besides, they'd beat us this time.

Geography has nothing to do with it as the islands lie outside the territorial limit which Argentina, and most other countries recognise.

Lets hope the crewe are found safe and sound. However I have to say these planes getting destroyed simply means they cannot be used to kill innocent people abroad, which can only be a good thing.

End these corporate/arms manufacturer sponsored wars.

Ima you're quite right about NaziRon making an absurd statement, i just couldn't be bothered to try and educate him, Tornadoes were in use before i demobed, they were built to keep the Ruskies out, as we were not overrun they obviously did their job, what innocent people abroad is he refering to? the people murdered in the Twin Towers?

Probably the 100,000 innocent Iraqis.

Geography has something to do with it.

They are 300 miles away from Argentina.

And the Argentines come from where???

 

[LargeWrench]

Geography has no bearing what so ever. If it did, with that logic, America would have to hand over both Hawaii and Alaska to the respective closest countries, Denmark would have to hand over control of Greenland e.t.c.

The falkland islands want to remain British and so long as that remains the case they will. That is how international law works, Argentina haven't a leg to stand on.

They are 300 miles away from Argentina.

Which makes them well outside the territorial waters of Argentina, and 100 miles outside the exclusive economic zone.

They might look close on a map

one of the rescued pilots has died, and the two missing pilots are now presumed dead...

Thanks for your service, I appreciate it.

Plenty of signs that suggest more conflict in quite a few different places - where do you see it kicking off next?

They want to stay 'English'?
