and tonight Argentina has accused the UK of deploying NUCS on the islands...


This is important because south america will end up siding with the EAST because of this soon to be war..

"Argentina tonight accused the UK of deploying nuclear weapons near the Falklands.

Foreign minister Hector Timerman made the claim as he urged the United Nations to intervene in the long-running dispute over the islands.

He said Buenos Aires had intelligence that a Vanguard submarine had been deployed in the area.

"Thus far the UK refuses to say whether it is true or not," Mr Timerman told a press conference in New York through a translator. "Are there nuclear weapons or are there not?

"The information Argentina has is that there are these nuclear weapons."

Mr Timerman accused Britain of using an "unjustified defence of self-determination" to maintain a military base on the Falklands, which allowed her to dominate the Atlantic.

"It is perhaps the last refuge of a declining empire," he insisted. "It is perhaps the last ocean that is controlled by the UK."

The Falkland's are well documented. It is a part of the British Empire such as it is and has been for a long time. Argentina got there ass kicked the last time they started this and will probably get it kicked again if they keep it up.

As for the Sub, hell their subs our subs and the Russian subs are all over the world. If you have subs that's what there for. Kind of like the Baltic Dry Freight ships, use them or lose them. Subs sink at the dock.

Countries with sub's never advertize where the cursing. We don't, the Russians or Chinese don't so why should the British.

I can't see the United Nation doing anything about the Falklands or let's say the same thing they did about Syria, which is zip.

and that's the PEOPLE of the Falklands identify with being british.. I have no cares for what ANY government has done to make claims to these islands, Governments have a way of making some things legit, that shouldn't be, just by being the government ANY claim they make is documented and legit..

was one of the so called "evil" countries, N. Korea, Iran or whoever doing something or sending a ship somewhere. Then everybody would be so against whatever they were doing.

If Argentina want those island it should go and grab them being sure that it will win. After all that's how all countries get their land or independences.  But they won't win and those people like being English, so whatever.
