Abu Bluff backs Argentina in Falklands dispute

If the British government were not so full of anti-Semites, they might be able to think of an appropriate response to this (Hat Tip: Daily Alert).
The Argentine Foreign Affairs Minister on Sunday thanked President Mahmoud Abbas for his support in the country's dispute over the Malvinas Islands, occupied by British forces in 1833.

Marking the 178th anniversary of the islands' occupation on Monday, the Argentinian representative to the Palestinian Authority pointed to similarities between the Malvinas Islands and Palestine.

Both countries were under unfair and anachronistic occupation, the Ramallah-based office said, and both cases revealed double standards in the implementation of UN resolutions.

Further, foreign powers were exploiting the resources of both territories, the representative office said.
178 years of 'occupation' and when was the last time it was discussed in the UN Security Council? Hmmm.

If we're going back 178 years then why not back 500 or 1000. In which case Turkey occupied Greek and Armenian lands and Egypt Coptic Christian, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Morocco occupy Berber lands not to mention Western Sahara and Kurdistan.
