Besides that, this is a problem about land, not about people who live on it. I don´t think Argentina even think on evicting the islanders or sell their land or something in that line.

Well, my point. If anyone wants to attack Ms. Kirchner, be my guest. I hardly swallow her.

Isn't it great when the politicians get involved

Hopefully things will quieten down for a bit.
