#1 See RELATED BIG NEWS NETWORK > ARGENTINA: MALVINAS REFERENDUM A MEANINGLESS STUNT.

By most accounts, the Argentinian armed forces isn't what it was back in the early 1980's during "FALKLANDS I" - iff true, then the Argies will likely be unable to initiate any major milaction unless BRAZIL = MERCUSOR BLOC joins them in war agz the UK???

#2 Cheers, Obama. Classy. And while we're about it, perhaps the UK should offer Diego Garcia to the Chinese?

#5 Don't offer Diego Garcia to the Chinese: they'll accept and Obama will bow to them, then withdraw...

#6 So how's the White House doing on the 'Reconquesta' movement to return California, Arizona, Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico lands to Mexico? You think London should issue a 'not taking sides' statement on that?

#7 After watching "Americans" run California for the last few years I don't know if that would be the worst thing ever to happen to it P2K.

#8 bigjim, if that is really what you think then come to San Diego and cross the border into Tijuana. Then you will see how much worse California could be. Not that we're not headed in that direction.
