Isn't that the truth? I think both sides need a spot of nationalistic flag waving during the gloom of the depression and this has given them a good excuse.

Can you find the peace treaty betweeen the two countrys that says that Bubblehead?

So in the treaty between the UK and Argentina over oil rights in the Falklands and surrounding waters(not including S.Georgia or S. Sandwich islands) after they had renewed diplomatic relations what does it say about the Argentine claim of soveriegnty?
What does it say about British claims of soveriegnty?

Tribesman, does not matter.When you lose a war, you lose and give up your claim to whatever.To the victors go the spoils of war.Typical Liberal to throw some piece of paper around.The US lost Vietnam, sure I could put a spin on it and say we chose to withdraw, which we did.However, we left because we lost the will to win and thus lost.North Vietnam then invaded and reunited North and South, thus winning the war.End of story.Argentina invaded British colonies, were defeated and sent packing.End of story or should be but Liberals like to whine.
