Branno, what is your issue with the Falklands? The islands are inhabited by British people and the infrastructure was paid for by British taxpayers. The inhabitants want to remain British subjects, and while the majority want to bepart of Britain, they deserve the protection of Britain. If they ever vote for rule by Argentina, then so be it.
The Spratleys and Paracels are completely different, as far as I know they are inhabited by indiginous peoples who have alliegencies to a variety of countries, although most of the local infrastructure was provided by Vietnam and the Philippines, therefore strengthening these countries claims to the islands.
Can you tell me how many Argentinians live in Port Stanley and how many billions Buenos Airies has spent on the infrastructure?
