    The time to build a Navy is not after you have discovered you need one.

    I agree. But that doesn't change the fact that Britain doesn't need a navy. As Britain's power and relationship with America erode Argentina will likely seize the Malvinas. Britain will be compelled to accept the fait accompli. The British residents of the Malvinas will become Argentines. It is their karma.

    Britain needs a navy and a top 5 one in the world, it always has and always will.

    Tell them that and they would kill you and die doing to, they hate Argentina. One of them that moved to Argentina and backs Argentina's rubbish claim, was disowned by his family and writen out of their family tree, they hate you for saying what you are saying, I hate you.

    I hate anyone what wants the Falklands to no longer be under British protection, and whats Scottish independence. The same goes for Spain.

    I remember standing near the crypts of Wellington and Nelson and thinking about how fleeting glory is. Today's Britain needs a navy like a fish needs a bicycle.

    The United States has no legitimate overseas interests to protect either. They do however have interests to protect.

    That's the difference between UK diplomacy and US savagery.

    And our little helpers in Canada will do our bidding because they have voluntarily and enthusiastically joined themselves to us at the hip. How's that work for you? :)

    As long as your government continues to spend billions of dollars here, it works for me while at the same time depleting your wallets.

    How does that work for you?

    It works as long as America is able to penetrate your economy, your national defense and your women.

    You do speak a load vile rubbish, the US needs Canada's resources, in return the US defends Canada from Russia, it's a win win.

    What country or nation are you from anyway.

    Those who talk about it rarely know what to do when they find it and you fit that peg to a tee.

    Thank you. Oh how I love this doudblespeak you give us.

    No, you do not want to rebuild the Empire. You just want to take over small places and tell them what to do.

    Buddy, that is exactly why I would love to see you do this. Because then the nutjobs of the world will stop hating the US, and go after a real threat.

    Oh, could you imagine the reaction of such a fleet steaming past the nation of Malaysia? Oh, I am sure they would love it. And you are so right, those poor foolish little people from Belize really do need to return the the boosom of the UK, how foolish of them to ever leave it?

    And you are so right. Let the UK step into Cyprus and take it over, they will end all that nasty fighting over there.

    Of course, the real fighting has been over for more then a decade now. And Cyprus is a member of the EU as an independent nation. So go ahead and take it over. I will sit back and laugh as the entire EU, as well as the entire Middle East explodes in you face and you will have absolutely no idea why.

    No I don't want to tell the people of Belize what to do, I want to make Belize a better places. Every government tells the people what they can and can't do, Belize would be no different.

    What nutjobs like Iran, they are already going after us, have you heard the Chavez speech on the Falklands, as I said befor he and all the other nutjobs can suck it.

    I don't want Malaysia back, it has to many people and is to big, for the UK to make better, i.e it doesn't need UK help, it's fine. Belize didn't want us to leave the UK didn't want them, why do you think we still had a military base their.

    I don't want to take Cyprus, but control it like what the US does all over the place.

    Why the whole middle east, it would just be Turkey, Syria and Israel, there for the UK would never take Cyprus, because Turkey wouldn't like it. In Europe what are they really going to do about it? Attack the UK, we have the most power fleet in Europe, more carriers, we could win that war.

    I want the British Overseas territories, to be able to vote like they do in France.

    No, what it doesn't change is the point of view of a person who would have the UK defeated and humiliated. The Royal Navy may not be the powerhouse it was in the last century--but poke at 'em a little bit and see exactly what you're advocating before you condemn so many Argentinians to another war they're going to lose. I think you'll find a considerable amount of steel left in their resolve--and more than a few Americans willing to back them to the hilt.


    Now there's a sad little pipedream for you. Never mistake a decline for a collapse and never try to live out a dictators nightmarish 'distraction' from internal disorder. War's over, bub, and you lost. Thirty years ago. Get over it.
