Don't be surprised if he does this. The other day he told the UK government to go frick themselves and then referenced the Falklands and essentially said that so long as you can claim control over these islands 3,000 miles away from Britain we ain't listening to shite you say in regards to what we consider our own homeland.

Yes it would. The UK and Canada both are just taking it on the chin right now.

This guy is the chairman of Israel's Zionist Party. I'm sure he will be a crowd favorite.

Expel the British ambassador tonight!

We will not be a doormat trampled by an antisemitic government, in a country conquered by radical Islam, trying to save itself from economic and social decline by attacking Jews and the State of Israel.

The British Mandate in the Land of Israel is over.

Genuine question: does Argentina exercise any control over the Falklands? What's to recognize?

No, they don't. They want it back from Britain essentially. They claim Britain unlawfully seized it in 1833.

Yes. Strange that it's also the place where the Nazis bugged out to.

Thanks. A friend of man is a Royal Marine who fought in the Falklands. He was impressed with how brave the Argentines were, but they were completely outmatched by the technology, equipment, and training of the Brits.

Pre-invasion someone asked a British official what they expected to encounter. He replied that it the Argentinians fought like the Spanish then they would die to the last man, but if they fought like the Italians then it would be over in 24 hours.

Israel is very familiar with Argentina.

The Mossad spent decades there hunting Nazis.

I don't see how that has all that much to do with what's happening here. Even if Israel is behind the push to move them out, Britain has been just letting them flood on through. Israel has a point here, imo. "If you're going to continue to claim territories thousands of miles away from your homeland, don't tell us what to do with what we consider our own homeland."

It will be interesting to see how this all shakes out. Alliances are being redrawn all over the place right now.

Well the difference is people native to the Falklands voted to be part of Britain.

Not sure that's the case in these Israeli settlements

No. There’s nothing to recognize. Argentina has never exercised any real degree of control over the islands, and has never populated them.

Everyone who lives there is British and wants to remain British.

It's just a huge source of national pride for them. It may not be logical, but it's true.

True story...many years ago I was driving from Puerto Montt, Chile to San Carlos de Bariloche...almost a thousand miles from the Falklands. On a fairly remote, two lane mountain road in the Andes, I passed this sign. Apparently, they are all over Argentina.

By the way...it's an absolutely beautiful area. It's called the Switzerland of South America for good reason, wit the snow capped mountains and blue lakes. You can have a very comfortable holiday seeing spectacular scenery, staying in European quality B&Bs and hotels, and eating excellent steaks.

So, a country that harbored escaped criminal Nazi Germans will gain support of the country they were screwing over? Bold choice , Israel (if true , of course).
