I am still laughing at how many British ships the Argies sunk, even with the Argie bombs having a terrible detonation-failure rate. One British ship was so damaged by fire from the rocket of the Argie missile (which impacted into the ship but failed to detonate) that it eventually sunk. Sadly, no British Admiral ever lost his job for how many British ships were sunk from clear naval incompetence in the Falklands War. Truly a last and desperate gasp for the ludicrous British Empire.
I've just read a Brazilian article about this war in 1982. It says this war was not so easy as most people think. Argentina began the war winning, until that whore Thatcher told France (all Argentine air missiles were made in France not the USA) to give them the remote password to turn the missiles off, so they wouldn't explode. She even threatened to drop an atomic bomb in Buenos Aires if France didn't cooperate.
So the missiles were turned off, Argentina lost the war, the big Thatcher whore got back her popularity in Britain and Maradona scored the hand of God goal.
For the ones who say most islanders prefer to be British, how about giving Northern Ireland to Ireland if most of them prefer to be Irish, or Wales to USA if most of them decide they'd rather be Americans? FFS, the Malvinas Islands are almost 15 thousand KM away from Britain.
Moreover,
This time things would be worse. More people would die, the war would be bigger, and you gotta take into account the fact that South America today are more united through Mercosul. In the early 80s, most South American countries were getting rid of decadent dictatorships, the continent was in ruins.
Argentina is a big commercial ally for Brazil and other S American countries. If a war in Malvinas fuck things up for Brazil, Brazil may even step into the shit. Things could get ugly for England.

We have no business being there,as far as I'm concerned the Fawkland Islands is part of Argentina,the government make up bullshit excuses like they are protecting the people who apparently want to be English,however anyone with a brain knows they only want it for oil and the fact it's a good strategic position to have a military base.
Fuck Zog,it makes me angry and helpless that I live in the heart of the beast.I know it's unlikely but if a war breaks out I will be openly supporting Argentina.British soldiers are scumbags and deserve to be shot,at best they are psychopathic morons who don't understand who they are fighting for(Khazars)and at worst they support the Khazars goal of New World Order.
If you are English you would know that the Falklands people are British and could never be English, second the UK does not own or rule over the Falklands, as the people living there pay the UK to protect them from the argies trying to kill them like in the last war.
whats falklands? All i know is uk is evil and should be nuked

I used to like Argentina. Then I took a British Navy to the Falklands Islands.

if South-America ever wants to be taken serious they need to get involved in a proper war. If I were Argentina I would claim the Shetland or Faroer Islands, same sort of climate, also filled with sheeps. And it's close to Britain. Everyone satisfied.
The UK is not in a condition to fight a war. Certainly not on it's own. Argentina know's this, besides NATO can't help the UK in a formal way should war break out again.
To solve all this, the island should go to the Dutch, cause we, like so many other things in this world, discovered it. We are also better in football then both nations.

Brazil has a bigger economy than UK and they are good friends with Russia. The brits would get crushed by the latinos if they start a war and then they would come running to us for help again. It'd be like WWII all over again.
