What's at stake in renewed tensions over the Falkland Islands?

A legal battle is underway between Argentina and the UK, triggered by an oil project off the coast of the disputed Falkland Islands. The Argentinian government wants to stop drilling in the area by a joint British-Israeli venture, saying it should not take place until the issue of sovereignty has been resolved. For its part, the British government rejects these arguments, stressing its full sovereignty over the area. The case is the latest chapter in this dispute. The two countries went to war in the early 1980s after Argentina invaded the Falklands. So, what are the implications of this case?
