FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Steven Patrick Morrissey told a crowd of audience in Cordoba, Argentina, “we know the islands belong to you.”
Morrissey, who called the islands by their original Spanish name, the Malvinas, said he wanted the Argentinean public know that the British government’s claim to the islands is not what the public think.
“You know of course the Malvinas Islands, everybody knows they belong to Argentina so please do not blame the British people, we know the islands belong to you,” Morrissey said.
Before him, Roger Waters, the former Pink Floyd bassist, and Sean Penn, the American Oscar-winner actor and political activist, had also attacked London for its escalation of the dispute around the islands.
The increasing support for the Argentinean sovereignty over the South Atlantic archipelago comes ahead of the 30th anniversary of the Argentina-Britain 1982 war.
Britain and Argentina fought a 74-day war in 1982 on the islands.
At the time, Argentina was almost alone in its campaign to regain the territory, which Britain illegally occupied in 1833 and formally annexed as a colony in 1892.
However, Argentina seems to have the upper hand at the present as international parties including the leading Latin American trade organization Mercusor and the US have explicitly or implicitly recognized its right to negotiate the subject with Britain.
Argentina’s stance is also backed by the UN Special Committee on Decolonization, which includes Malvinas on its list of British colonies waiting to be liberated.
