The Spanish name, Islas Malvinas, is derived from the French name,[12] "Îles Malouines", named by Louis Antoine de Bougainville in 1764 after the first known settlers, mariners and fishermen from the Breton port of Saint-Malo in France.[12] The ISO designation is "Falkland Islands (Malvinas)".[13]

We've gotten over losing bloody Canada to the Brits. Never mind those windswept rocks and two dozen sheep of the Falklands.

People need to get over stuff.

I find this situation immensely ironic, since Argentina are now playing the Imperialists. They are trying for a land-grab due to natural resources located on the islands, with no regard whatsoever for the sovereignty of the inhabitants of the islands. Sounds like Argentina have turned into the very Evil Colonialists that they accuse Britain of being.

Aye.

What's more, after Argentina lost the Falklands, Argentina conquered an area half the size of Western Europe. Let them give that back to the natives if they are this concerned with ancient claims and original inhabitants.
(Although, in the case of the Falklands, neither 'original' nor 'inhabitants' apply to the Argentines)

Every year they do a pantomine of asking for it back its political theatre no more no less the whole thing will be forgoten when Argentina is allowed to benefit from it economically by acting as the hub for supplies for the rigs.
