It backs Japans claim to the islands that China claims are theirs, yet when it comes to the Falklands the US practically backs Argentina's claim.
What an ally, is Britain not important enough for you Washington?? The Japanese want the US military out of their country and the US is dragging their heels.

This situation is simply being used by the Argentine leadership to draw attention away from the mess they have left Argentina in. Argentina has no claims to the island and would never be able to take them. Although I do agree the time has come to start cutting ties with the U.S. They just use our military for their owns gains and would abandon Britain in a heartbeat.
