\n

It was an important soccer match \u2014 England v. Argentina in a semi-final of the World Cup. After deservedly taking the lead, England became possessed with the enervating spirit of Keir Starmer, rather than the indomitable spirit of Margaret Thatcher. If fortune favors the brave, their misfortune resulted from cowardice. Rather than take it to Argentina on the pitch, England retreated and proceeded to lose in defensive ignominy.<\/p>

On the day, Argentina proved they are better soccer players, but they are not better people. Actually, they are rather a nasty bunch who are well known for their \u201cdark arts.\u201d<\/p>\n

Off the pitch, they impertinently refer to the Falkland Islands as Las Malvinas. If someone of Starmer\u2019s ilk had been prime minister in 1982, they probably would be. However, when the Argies tried to deny the Falklanders their right to self-determination, the Iron Lady was having none of it. She sent the Royal Navy down there to give them a darn good thrashing.<\/p>\n

After the soccer match, Argentina players flouted FIFA rules (punishment is pending) by unfurling before their fans an obnoxious banner with this message: \u201cLas Malvinas son Argentinas,\u201d which translates as \u201cThe Falklands are Argentine.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Go tell that to the Falklanders. They are a self-governing British Overseas Territory. In a 2013 referendum, 99 percent of voters chose to remain under British sovereignty. I shall repeat that: ninety-nine percent. Did Stalin ever get figures that high?<\/p>

It appears the nasty Argies care not one whit about the higher moral principle that has evolved in the nation-state era: an indigenous people\u2019s right to self-determination.<\/p>\n

Indigenous?! Wouldn\u2019t that be the Argies themselves? Not really. Not recently.<\/p>\n

The Falkland Islands are about 300 miles off Argentina\u2019s Coast \u2014 well out into internationally accepted international waters. Argentina had marginal control over the Falklands for only about ten years throughout history. France and Spain (1767\u20131811) showed more interest with various minor settlements. By contrast, Great Britain established a permanent settlement and has magnificently governed the archipelago since 1833. Their descendants are more \u201cindigenous\u201d than anyone; honor their wishes for self-determination.<\/p>\n

Perhaps subsumed by some complex, Argentina is desperate to secure some international respect, and soccer is one thing they do well. Nevertheless, their players\u2019 unseemly antics (egged on by fans and injudicious politicians) reflect unrefined human traits. You\u2019ll not find the better angels of our nature in their midst.<\/p>
