re: Good News: We’re Supporting Argentina’s Claim To The Falklands & Arming Them

Brah, I've been posting that length of posts since like 2012.

I don’t know what you’re saying. I have an inability to read, remember?

Well then two can play at that game. Same as you, I declare that you have an inability to read…..ya know, if you don’t agree with me. Strange and silly game, but if that’s the one you wanna play, then let’s play. Now what? What am I even thinking - you have an inability to read.

Regardless, none of this is to suggest that China isn't a threat. They are, but they are a threat that has limitations to what they can achieve.

They are a huge threat and Trump policies have checked their global conquest agenda.

They are desperate for food, imported oil and gas. 35% of the food needed to feed the 1.4 billion people is imported. Their industry runs on oil, and their incredibly large rural population uses more LNG, NGL, and LPG than you can imagine, there is not a tree left standing to use for firewood.

They steal intellectual property, produce and ship Fentanyl into the US, cyber espionage, tech theft, maintain a large presence at the Darrian Gap to facilitate immigrant infiltration, on and on. They are doing destructive, distracting things to gain position and capital, all to keep their population subjugated and controlled. They cheapest workforce in the industrialized world. Unlimited funds and we are giving them the capital to continue their agenda.

They are our biggest enemy and a huge threat with the only limitation being their incoming capital the west is supplying.

Idiotic.

Tell me what Britain and Europe offers us as Allies...what exactly, do they provide?

Have you thought about some things that you’d like to see them provide/offer as allies, in an ideal situation? Regardless of whether or not they do or don’t at the current time. Just asking what you would consider ideal benefits or things our country would get or gain, ideally.

ETA…I’m just curious about that, it’s not some sort of gotcha attempt. It would be interesting to hear from multiple people on that. Honestly, I myself have to think about it for a spell. Which is a bit strange, because I know I’ve been guilty of firing off responses on this and related topics, apparently without knowing right out of hand precisely what my baseline expectations would even be.

Milei might be the ally of certain US factions, but I'm failing to see the benefit of trading Atlanticism for something where Argentina would be relevant geopolitically.

Firstly give them time. They, like Poland, are on the rise. Argentina has a massive coastline and motivated leader.

Starmer is laughable as is the continent of Europe. Reap what you sow.

We would be better off aligned with Russia at this point going forward

I don’t view Israel as a ally since they have bought all of our whore politicians. They are closer to one than GB and France

You are dismissing the ability of China to negatively impact the U.S.

I really don’t need to say any more.

At this point, China has the ability to shut down the U.S. economy.

Additionally, via belt and road, they can absorb that market loss to a manageable degree. Europe kowtowing to them pretty much ensures as much.

Until rare earths are mined in subsequent volume, and magnet production hits / surpasses benchmarks, this dynamic will continue.

Oil is China’s only vulnerability.

It is our countermeasure.

Connect the dots…or not.

Don't give a rat's about this at all.

But...

for historical context, here's an interesting article.

Argentina has never demonstrated sustained control or the military capacity to alter the status quo, while Britain has administered the Falkland Islands for nearly two centuries, and the islanders themselves overwhelmingly choose to remain British. Together, these factors—not the early history of settlement—explain why the sovereignty question is effectively settled in practice, even though Argentina continues to contest it diplomatically.
