@JotaJotaCastell@emilyhewertson Crap. When the British re asserted sovereignty there were 25 to 30 Argentine soldiers. 1833. But your argument is even weaker because the people who live there do NOT want to be ruled by Argentina. Not even remotely.
@Atilense@emilyhewertson You don’t have to because that isn’t the point. The people who live there, many for generations don’t want Argentina. Simple. It’s called self determination.
@alquis13@emilyhewertson Christ you’re thick. Do you know why Ireland is a separate country? If you did you might understand why the Falklands is the Falklands.
