Falklands... oops, I meant Malvinas.

The short and brutal Falklands/ Malvinas (I'm going to play it safe) war occurred in 1982 but is definitely not ancient history-- quite the contrary. As these Argentine veterans protesting at Plaza de Mayo would gladly confirm.



Their camp at Plaza de Mayo, in front of the presidential palace (la casa rosada).



They stood up at one point, so I got a snap of the inside of their makeshift camp.



"The Malvinas are Argentine."
