So how long will America sit around gazing up its own arse if the Argentinians decide to invade again. Or perhaps democracy is a god given right that only Americans have a right to.
You have an anti Brit president and chauvinist population but you STILL want us to be your allies.
Lets wait and see.

Presidents come and go.....I'd wouldn't rely on the US for assistance until at least 1/2017......like you say, lets just wait and see.
but then you abandon your country long ago didn't you ?

When is China going to leave Tibet, or are you only concerned about non-asians?
 
Reagan's no longer president, so I guess you're on your own, Low. Now the European community can see the folly of offering praise for the current administration.

You guys should probably worry more about French support, since you'd have to use their navy to get over there.

Not a problem, RAF Mount Pleasant has a runway that can handle virtually anything including Antonovs, A340 and C-130s.

The British government felt that Stanley airfield was not the best option for a large, permanent base and decided to construct a new RAF station and make it the centrepiece of considerably strengthened air defences for the Falkland Islands, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. This was intended to deter any future Argentine attempts to take the islands by force. Mount Pleasant, to the west of Stanley, was chosen as the site for the new station. The construction, which had extraordinary challenges to get materials on site, was undertaken by a Laing-Mowlem-ARC consortium.[SUP][6][/SUP] The airfield was opened by Prince Andrew (who served in the Falklands War) on 12 May 1985,[SUP][7][/SUP] and became fully operational in 1986.[SUP][8][/SUP]
Flights of Phantoms were rotated through the base until 1992 when they were replaced with Tornado F3s. The Tornado was replaced by the Eurofighter Typhoon in September 2009. These have been supported throughout by C130s and, since 1996, VC10s, equipped for aerial refuelling, transport, search and rescue and maritime patrol.
A flight of Westland Sea King helicopters for support and search and rescue has been based at Mount Pleasant since November 2007.

So you don't think that the people that live in the Falklands have a say in how they are governed? How very democratic of you.

So what you are saying is you want us to fight for you again? You want us to be the global police? You want us to be war mongers, so that you can pretend your country is not?

No we want you to grow the balls to make decisions rather than wait until you see who is winning before dipping your toe in. Then you can decide whether you want allies and if so who. If you want to continue ties with us then, as you so quaintly say, 'step up to the plate' if not then go it alone.
Now to answer two extremely stupid questions that have been put while the single american brain cell was being handed round. The Falkland Islanders are British, they speak English (and far better English than you) some of them have been there for nine generations and are more British than many of you are American. Hawaii, well why not give it back to the Hawaiians with an apology for the actions of Loren Thurston the son of a bloody missionary. While you are about it apologise for all the other societies that your god obsession has negatively affected.

Your Grover (why do you have such stupid names?) Cleveland said: '"the military demonstration upon the soil of Honolulu was of itself an act of war; unless made either with the consent of the government of Hawaii or for the bona fide purpose of protecting the imperiled lives and property of citizens of the United States. But there is no pretense of any such consent on the part of the government of the queen

They treated South America as their personal fiefdom for many a long year.
