Documentary about the Falklands War presented by historian father and son Peter and Dan Snow Funny thing, Argentina has screamed "THE UK HAS DEPLOYED NUCLEAR WEAPONS IN THE SOUTH ATLANTIC!!", conveniently forgetting the Vanguard class SSNs can hit Buenos Aires from HMNB Clyde; their home port . . . ;) As much as people want to argue history, all that matters now is the decision of the Falklands Islanders. If they wanted to become Argentinian, I would support that decision as would the British government. You may not agree with what the islanders say but you can't deny them the right to speak for themselves. Related article

At ALBA Summit, Chavez confident of re-election win 02-06-12

Caracas, Venezuela (NTN24) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and other leaders of the eight-nation Bolivarian Alliance bloc, or ALBA, condemned on Sunday what they called the "systematic interference" of foreign countries in Syria's political future. "ALBA chiefs of state condemn the systematic interference and destabilisation policies in Syria to impose on the Syrian people a change of regime," Chavez said at the conference on Sunday. "The ALBA's countries condemn the violent acts against the Syrian people, taken by 'irregular' groups supported by foreign countries," he told the heads of state at the meeting in Caracas. During the summit, Chavez also predicted that the US, the United Nations and the Organisation for American States would likely not recognise his victory in the presidential elections in October as legitimate, even when polls indicated an easy win for his party. He told the heads of state that he could imagine their response: "'In October, Chavez lost. There was fraud.' And they will try to destabilise us, because what the United States wants is the Orinoco Belt, because there...there is oil there for the next 200 years." Chavez hosted the meeting of the bloc of Latin American and Caribbean nations at his at Miraflores Palace offices to discuss political and economic issues. Chavez and his allies also agreed there was a need to expand ALBA into an economic platform for South America, a move that would mean including more members. "For sure, more countries <b>...</b> Related article

Impact of Spanish Bailout on US Economy
Impact of Spanish Bailout on US Economy
6:08
Spain's request for a bailout for its banks represents yet another mixed success for the US in its two-year-long effort to press Europe to get on top of its debt crisis. The US wanted to see money injected directly into Spanish banks but instead sees it going through the Spanish government, which increases Madrid's debt load. In earlier cases, US officials pushed for a big firewall and the final result wasn't as big as they urged. They pushed for bank stress tests, and the results were pretty worthless. These results, which buy time but don't resolve the crisis, are what what the US gets in a situation where it doesn't have a central role, doesn't have much leverage and is relegated to nudging and prodding from the sidelines.
