    This really isn’t true at all. A significant portion of the world’s population takes Argentina’s position. It’s really only in the English-speaking world that there is a default pro-British position.

      Nah it’s the position of everyone who understands that the Falklands weren’t Spanish when Argentine declared independence, but British. Who, may I remind you, are not the people you declared independence from.

      Not to mention that Falklanders don’t want to be Argentinian, they very much would like to stay British. Really, stuff that jingoism it makes you look silly.

      Except they don’t, because most countries believe in the right to self determination and don’t think you should be able to invade a countries sovereign territory because “well its closer to us”
