British fleet readies
for full-scale attack
FALKLAND ISLANDS (AP) -
Britain's war fleet ringed the
Argentine-occupied Falkland
Islands Wednesday poised for
full-scale assault, and Prime
Minister Margaret Thatcher of
fered virtually no hope for a U N
peace attempt to succeed
“The gap looks big,"
Thatcher said in a radio inter
view after London received
through the United Nations
what she called Argentina’s
reply to London's latest terms
for peace
"I’m afraid it doesn't look very
encouraging," she said of Ar
gentina's proposal Officials in
Buenos Aires called the Argen
tine ideas a good basis for con
tinuing talks
Thatcher said earlier that if
U.N. efforts do not succeed by
Thursday she would settle the
six-week crisis with military
force British newspapers
reported she had already
decided to invade and the only
question was timing
In New York, Secretary-Gen
eral Javier Perez de Cuellar said
attempts to mediate were in
their "last hours " A British
source said there was some
forward movement by Argentina
but did not elaborate
Junta leaders in Buenos Aires
awaited Britain’s next move,
government sources said
Newspapers predicted an im
minent British Invasion of the
islands. Argentina seized the
British colony April 2 after a
149-year sovereignty dispute.
Britain's Defense Ministry
reported no fighting in the
South Atlantic, more than 24
hours after military sources said
the battle fleet of at least 50
ships began surrounding the
islands
An estimated 4,000 troops
aboard the Royal Navy assault
group faced the prospect of at
tempting to oust by force 9,000
Argentine troops dug in on the
freezing archipelago
Both countries have repea
tedly accused each other of
stalling peace and refusing to
compromise
Argentine President Gen.
Leopoldo Galtieri canceled a
Cabinet meeting and remained
in his office, aides said
The crisis moved toward a
violent climax with Britain
feeling increasingly isolated fol
lowing what it called three stun
ning rebuffs from partners in the
10-nation European Economic
Community
Argentines in u.b.
fight for Falklands
MIAMI (AP) - They gather
everything from guitars to blood
for their countrymen on the
front. They pass out thousands
of leaflets and mimeographed
sheets They try to play on the
cultural roots of Miami's Latin
exile community to rally sup
port
Headquartered in a Miami
abortion clinic, a determined
group of Argentine-Americans
fights a lonely battle for the
Falkland Islands
Sonia Fornoni and Pedro
Caccamo, amid typewriters,
bumper stickers and tiny paper
flags, marshal the effort
The enemy’s caricature is on
the wall — he's grizzled, peg
legged and brandishes a cut
lass
“Are the English anything
else?” asks Fornoni. a
26-year-old housewife from San
Carlos de Bariloche
Along with several hundred of
their estimated 6,000 compa
triots in southern Florida,
Fornoni and Caccamo gathered
in a Little Havana restaurant
after the Royal Navy set sail for
the South Atlantic, and formed
"Ateneo Malvinas Argentinas,"
the Argentine Malvinas Society.
They say they love America,
but their homeland must come
first
