Argentinians protest arrival of Prince Williams on Malvinas

Argintineans protest arrival of Prince Williams on Malvinas

Demonstrators take to the streets of Argentina's capital to protest the arrival of Britain's Prince William on the Malvinas (Falkland) Islands.


Hundreds of angry protesters gathered in front of the HSBC Bank branch in the capital Buenos Aires on Thursday, throwing objects at British bank to show their fury at Prince's presence on the archipelago.

Earlier in the day, a group calling itself Quebracho, also staged a march in the city and demanded that their government cut trade links with Britain.

Esteche Fernando, the leader of the group, accused the UK of "imperialism," saying, "This sort of reigniting of the Malvinas dispute is more about hiding the financial crisis and economic suffering."

Britain's Duke of Cambridge arrived in Malvinas Islands for a six-week deployment as a Royal Air Force search and rescue pilot.

The Argentineans are upset because the prince came in a military uniform of a "conqueror", although he is doing work as a S&R pilot. whats the big deal. The dispute is no more enhanced or retarded by his presence, uniform or not. He is not going to negotiate what his government already resolved.

I dont get why the Argentinean government allowed a group of bandits to cause damage to a bank. I dont care about the bank, but that situation could easily erupt into a full blown riot.

I would not condone it by not scorning those actions. What ever the position the government or the people take.

Exactly, I have no idea why OP refers to the "Falklands" as "Malvinas". They will never, ever have a Spanish name over them ever.

because unlike the english and american government, argentinians are loyal to their citizens and will certainly not fire on or harm a fellow argentinian to prevent them from trashing a foreign bank.

the riot would have happened if they did turn on them.

prince william is a tool anyways. i don't know why they care for that rock full of sheep anyways. let england fly supplies, it's their colony.

apparently the monroe doctrine is out the window on this one. the united states is supposed to stand up to any european power meddling in the new world.

Quotes like this make me pissed. Have you ever been in Argentina? Do you even know were that is?

Guess what......... England is Imperialistic. And I would most certainly head over to Argentina to help them if another war erupts against "the British".

Thats Argentinian land..... Very much far removed from English "sovereignty".

What, you mean in the same way that the US is imperialistic? Hopefully we will all head over to Iran to help them if you attack them for no reason, mind you, I'm not sure they are scared. All it takes is men with box cutters to screw your pathetic, filthy country over.

Give the Natives back the land you viciously and cruelly drove them from, then you can give the Hawaiians back their nation, then you can give Cuba back their land that you have held, and you can release the Japanese from the military occupation you have held them under for over 60 years.

Otherwise, if you wanna have a fight with us, bring it you silly American't fool.

so lets say hypothetically that the USA turns up and evicts the british down to the last person and ships them back to blighty then guess who owns the island the US of A so the declarations useless and with that much oil underneath it theres no way the Americans will just hand it over so just accept that unless you can defeat the Americans you'll never get the island any which way

You know the silliest thing about the whole falklands/malvinas fiasco?
After the Junta was deposed and Argentina moved towards a more democratic society, lots of peoples attitudes towards Argentine claims over the islands softened. If they really want them back, I'd say drop the belligerence and they'd soon find many in favour of their rule.

It's a pity that they can't see past the macho bull# so often the favoured position of those who don't have to actually do the fighting should it come to that.

In the event of war erupting, this post will be remembered - and we will all be expecting a piccy of your flight ticket to Buenos Aires!

Hate to say this fella, but just cos you say it, doesnt make it true!

I know its easy to spout off about a country you've probably never been to, but keep in mind that almost any dominant power in the history of civilisation has made itself dominant through...thats right....domination.

Now that doesn't make it right - but i'm guessing that makes it human nature. so jump off your highhorse and get real.

Please read a bit more about the Monroe Doctrine and what it actually entailed. This myth is debunked so often now it is becoming almost a daily occurrence.

However, for your benefit (if you have never read it) the Munroe Doctrine is not international law, has no legal basis, and even if this was immediately recognised as a law, under its own terms would not be applicable in the case of the Falkland Islands as they were existing territory.

As for Prince William, i do not get why the objections are so strong. He is not and never will be a combat pilot - he is a search and rescue pilot. Frankly, you would have though that in that part of the world they would be grateful for anyone who is prepared to risk life and limb saving people from the South Atlantic!
