The Guardian article

Today i´m gonna talk about an article of The Guardian that is related to my career: sociology.
Today I was reading the Guardian and I saw an article which talked about the Falkland Islands, I was very suspicious: why was there an article about the Falkland Islands?

Then I read the hole article, it was about a new polemic between Argentina and England, but so far I know this contreverse between this 2 countries was closed too many years ago...but the fact is that the last week the Prime minister of England has revived the rhetoric of the Falklands War, like in the year 1982! All started after David Cameron (the UK P.M.) acussed Argentina of adopting a colonial attitude towards the Falkland Islands because the Argentine Foreign-minister has talked about "las Malvinas"  as part of his country again. Cameron said that most of the Falklanders would´nt like to be Argentinians, and in that way Argetine acts with a colonial attitude.
I dont know exactly what to think about it, first of all I think that England can´t talk to Argentina as having a colonial attitude, because they were and still being a colonialist country, they were for centuries the most powerfull colonialist country, they had colonies in India, in Ceylan, in South-america, in Africa, in China, everywhere!
But I think also, that this Islands are not really important to this two giant countries, Argentina has not problems with having less territory, and England is anyway too far; I think the fact in this polemic is that this 2 countries are having now internal problems, and as everybody knows: distract thi internal problems with external problems its a perfect solution! All Europe has now a crisis and like in 1982, what should be better to England as having a new upsurge of patriotism?
We should also think about how this kind of politics are being used in our continent...
