Renewing the Falklands Follies

Predictably, Argentina is protesting British exercises near the Falklands...

Argentina has called on Britain to refrain from conducting military exercises on the disputed Falkland Islands.
Argentina said Saturday it has sent a letter of protest to the British ambassador in Buenos Aires.
Britain notified Argentina last week about the upcoming military exercises on the Falklands.
Britain and Argentina have had a long-running dispute over sovereignty of the British-held Falklands in the South Atlantic.


So, how much more "disputed" do you think they are? Didn't we settle this in '82, when the Argies go schmoaked?

Oh, and in a shameless plug, you can play it yourself:

At the operational level

Or at the tactical level

All of this protests are coming from a leftist government that has brought down Argentine's Armed Forces to it's knees. I don't know what Kirchner is up to, though.

In the end is all as the (recent) winner of the literature Nobel Prize has said: "the dispute over the Falklands/Malvinas is like two bald men fighting over a comb".

Cheers,
