Speculation about Obama holding a grudge is just that, speculation. Unfortunately he can't undo history. To level an accusation towards him based solely on how his family may have been mistreated or disrespected is the usual journalistic balderdash. I give no credence to rubbish, which then makes me question what else might be rubbish in your historical accounts.

America up to the Pearl Harbour Attack were playing both sides with who ever
could afford to buy war materials. There were no massive preparations to land
American troops On the Isle of Britain because of an Isolationist Policy.
Once Pearl Harbour happened America declared war on Japan, but they did not
declare war on Germany. Germany in fact declared war on America thus making
it impossible to ignore anymore. America didn't exactly come running to the front
early in WW! either.I am glad they finally showed up. Britain and her allies were
asking where is the lone Ranger.

Thank you, damngrumpy, for being a good-faith forum participant; it is indeed enlightening to hear from you.

Assuming that you are a good-faith forum participant, which I can't take for granted at all, there is no eternal and definite version of history; history is a matter of opinion. There is such thing as "historical facts," on the basis of which, according to one's interpretation, history is built as it is. There is a saying in my native Argentina: "History is told by the winners," a saying applied to Hitler, this is arguing that Hitler's version of history might as well be the "definite" truth. Then, you are not brandishing any argument based on either/or geopolitics/intelligence; you are just trying to discredit me as a "conspiracy theorist." The readers who know how to read between the lines will not rule out the possibility that you might indeed be an Argie, this is a military intelligence officer. I challenge you to somehow show, with the truth in your mind and words, that you are a good-faith participant of this excellent forum. Call me a "conspiracy theorist" if you thus desire, yet, please, brandish concrete arguments against me as a free-lance investigative journalist; for your argument so far sounds to me like an Ad Hominem logical fallacy. In passing, in every forum I raise complaints/allegations against Argentina always the same kind of arguments against my line of reasoning are brandished; same Ad Hominem attacks, trying to discredit me, etc. A challenge: why do you think the Argies call the British "the English," then calling them "pirates"? Whenever in freaky Argentina everything is pirated in terms of copyrights and patents, like in China. Just identify yourself as a good faith forum participant; then I will carefully listen to what you may have to say.

My last paragraph was addressed to Kreskin.

That you would count this as an 'idea' Spade means giving the term "idea" a completely new and quite inaccurate definition. This is just a childish retort.

At least you recognize what you post and aren't afraid to include an honest description within it.

The reason I am in this forum being that Canada is a part of the British Crown, I am trying to raise awareness about the need to keep an eye on Argentina as a sworn enemy of Great Britain. For, until Mordechai Vanunu came up with evidence about Israel having the nukes, Western governments kept silent about it. I am the first individual raising this issue: what about if Argentina actually has the nukes? No bid deal, low-yield nukes, as of 2008 submarine torpedoes, yet by now the middle-range Condor missile might have been resuscitated as well. Where would you Canadians stand in case of a new Argentine aggression against the Falklands? A submarine torpedo can flow a fleet; course, if I by chance know the truth about it, Britain must know it as well, plus the United States, most certainly. Add here Iran, and let's imagine the unthinkable: a two-front nuclear war. Iran has fast boats that would be scary with nuclear warhead-missiles. What is President Obama doing about Iran? Appesement. Take a look about a possible Argentina-Iran connection. Western governments are keeping too many secrets from the people.

Argentina got their a$$ kicked. The British government left a larger military contingent than was there when Argentina first invaded. I don't think they will try that again knowing British resolve to keep the Falklands.

That has to be one of the most idiotic things I've ever seen someone do on here Petros. I hope he has Lifelock or something along those lines. He basically gave away the keys to his castle.

A few corrections: it must read, "Aren't you sensing that I am really skilled at intelligence analysis?" It must also read, "Give it a try: re-publish what I wrote, or have a "ghost" user start a thread." For real, a thread, "Argentina: a second nuclear power in the American Continent?" A CIA declassified document about Argentina reads: "Official resentment [about the Falkland's defeat] will probably soften over time, but it is highly questionable that the United States will be in an effective position to retard or influence the chances for a nuclear test later in the decade if Argentina is able to produce plutonimum in a new unsafewarded reactor."Also warning, "Argentina is acquiring other facilities and material that are unsafeguarded and could be used in a nuclear weapons program." http://www.foia.ucia.gov/

In my previous messages I am obviously being ironic, for it is a very common intelligence situation I am warning the owner/s of this forum about; somebody might show up posing as a Canadian intelligence officer to destroy the kind of a thread I am proposing, this is against Argentina. Regarding somebody's suggestion for me to be careful about posting my private information, as a terrorism target I can't care least about it. For, year after year, men playing distracted driver try to strike me with their car, plus the amount of hacking I endure on an everyday basis is astounding -no doubt, a government. Plus lots of harassment, theft, you name it. Not to mention the "Mata Hari" in an Aldi store replacing a yougurt cup I had just bought for one she brought from outside the store. Then, I might just be bizarrelly delusional about it; very unlikely, for I am as well a mental health expert. Make up your minds, people: Western governments are being too passive when handling the two bullies Argentina and Iran. In Argentina's case, their intelligence, also working inside the drug cartels, is everywhere. Just because you are reading all of this in a modest forum don't just rule it out. Read between the lines and you will see that I am deadly serious about it all.
