Our illustrious Zer0 back stabs England again...via our idiotic Sec of State... http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2010/03/025724.php
I foresee some sort of stupid denial from the WH or Hillary...but the damage is already done. |

I can see if the US ever asks England for help with anything England just might say, to zer0 and the rest of his admin.

I can't resist, Kenyans do not like England. Why now? OIL, apparently lots of it 2008 - After 10 years of frustrating delays since oil fields containing up to 60 billion barrels of "black gold" were discovered off the islands, oil companies are planning to start drilling within the next 12 months. The move follows the conclusion of lengthy, but successful, tests by geologists and significant cash injections by two major oil companies which plan to bring rigs to the islands by as early as autumn. The companies with licences to drill in the area met in Edinburgh on Friday to brief officials from the Falklands' government on their progress, and preparations are under way in the South Atlantic to ensure that the islands can cope with sudden wealth. The successful extraction of oil could bring billions of pounds to the 3,000 islanders, in a cash bonanza similar to that enjoyed by Gulf states after the development of oil fields there. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/1581211/Drilling-for-oil-to-start-in-Falkland-Islands.html 60 billion barrels of "black gold?" won't be arbitrated, that worth fighting over for both sides.

What bad timing. How foolish of Hillary to be saying that now of all times. England has been our strongest supporter. I wish we would follow the advice of President George Washington and stay out of foreign affairs. |

This would be so disappointing to Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan who gave GB enormous support over the Falklands. This administration has absolutely no class whatsoever. Obama couldn't find his ass in a whore house. |

In this case, Hillary was not foolish. Obama's administration is hostile to the British specifically because they have been our allies. These people are our enemies - and enemies of anyone who is a genuine friend of this country. More generally, Hussein hates what is known as "Western Civilization": freedom, democracy, free markets, prosperity, rule of law, etc. And (with the exception of the US) nothing symbolizes Western Civilization as Great Britain does. Fortunately, he will not be able to do much against the British... so he is just trying to screw us up as much as he can! |

Does anyone really think that the Falkland citizens would decide to become Argentine citizens when they sit on a piece of land that promises wealth? 3,000 people have a lot of skin in the game and I suspect, if they are smart, they will used that power to extract some concessions. Interesting article from 5 days ago http://www.guardian.co.uk/theguardian/2010/feb/27/falklands-oil-dispute-ian-jack |

They are full British Citizens and about 70% are of British descent. They have no interest in being part of Argentina. Could anyone blame them? |
