Research done. Please let me know what your research found about ICJ jurisdiction over colonies.

You are right! I forgot that one!

I think the English deserve a compensation after the hand of god in 1986. Some Germans who are old enough to remember 1966 may think otherwise.

You are mentioning a Maritime delimitation case... not the same type of issue than the Falklands. The ICJ (for your information a UN agency) can only provide non-binding legal interpretation on issues related to Colonies. In that sense is as useless as the Decolonization Committee. In any case...

These cases have nothing to do with the type of case the Falkland/Malvinas issue is about!! Do you think because in a ruling there is the name of two countries, they are empowered to deal with any sort of international issue? With all due respect, have you ever heard about the words...

Do not believe in everything people tell you. It is recipe for disaster... That court you mentioned has been even less successful than the UN committee in dealing with this type of disputes. Please give me a good example of a case that has been dealt successfully at The Hague. I can give you...

I think that there is a difference between what people in a country think/care about and what a politician does. Cameron is a big clown and, as Cristina, he is political animal who needs to drive the attention to issue that distract people from domestic problems. In any case, you are right...

Not only in Argentina an invitation for coffee means sex... I remember this episode of Seinfeld: George:She invites me up at twelve o clock at night, for coffee. And I don't go up. "No thank you, I don't want...

I have to agree. I am not British but I lived in the UK for two years and I never heard anyone mentioning it or read anything in the press. If there are things in the press now it is because of the recent mounting rhetoric. The Islands are insignificant for the UK. If Argentina have not gone to...

No you did not explain it. You just said that it did not make sense. There is a difference between saying something and explaining it.

Cuba, Venuzeula, or... Europe. Today Brussels let countries in the EU know that they can close their frontiers to capital flows or freeze bank deposits/withdraws in preparation of what it could be Greece leaving the Euro. AFIP's dollar sniffing dogs will soon require to identify the smell of...

I was robbed two weeks ago in Geneva, Switzerland (yes, there). It was probably an underground communist cell. Oh I forgot, for some people in the States Europeans are all communist. el_expatriado is just taking the piss out of us, do not take him too seriously.

Your questions are not dumb at all. Quick and unsophisticated answers: 1- Yes, thanks to CK the economy is slowing down big time. A recession could be due to lower demand, lower supply or a combination of the two. Prices can go either way then. During the 1970s the world got to know...

I am abroad now but I would really like to attend the meeting in July if there is any.

You are not understanding me. I agree with you in everything but on the issue of UBA been a nest of communist, permastudents, etc. With all due respect, I think you jumped the wagon too quickly there. The argument of the nobel prizes winners was not about the rankings neither about the nest of...

Does it really matter if I am elitist or pretentious when the effort should be on the argumentation and not on the personal qualities of the person who is posting the argument? I live in Chacarita, take the metro to go to work and when I am not in Buenos Aires (or France) I live in a shanty...

Thanks but this is not the issue in debate here. I am sorry you took the time to google all those people but I am not interested in ranking UBA vis-avis other Brazilian Universities. That's was your idea. I agree with you, ranks are misleading and like you I have met people in life of all...

You are thanking someone who is making clear that he does not know anything about UBA and at the same time disqualifying anyone else who may actually know what they are talking about. Yes, I studied in UBA two decades ago but I teach now. I can tell you UBA today is much better than 20 years ago...
