Stanley, Falkland Islands (Malvinas) |
I have read many of the posts on this site that relate to the Falklands dispute, and I can see that some contributors have not researched the subject very well at all, so may I suggest that all providers (before posting any further comments) read a publication called:
"Getting it right: the real history of the Falklands/Malvinas" authored by Graham Pascoe and Peter Pepper. This site is for all who are interested in the history of the Argentine claim over the Falkland Islands. The information it contains is taken from the original historical documents concerned. If no “hard” evidence exists, then no entry was included in this history by the authors. It is a rebuttal of Argentine historical misinformation - particularly as distributed in 2007 to Argentine schoolchildren. A lot of the information is researched from actual Argentine historical archives. This is a "must see" for all those interested in the background to the controversy, and the general history of the South West Atlantic. If you would like to learn more about this subject and more Falklands History, both in the English and Spanish then copy and paste the below links into your web browser: English Language: http://www.falklandshistory.org/ Spanish PDF: http://www.falklandshistory.org/spanish4.pdf It will be interesting if any body who can come up with actual historical documents to prove this publication (or any part of) to be incorrect. |

On some of the history I totally agree with you, especially the bit about Rodrigo Borgia, it's unfortunate that actual Vatican archives back it up..... |
