Don't know why this thread was bumped.

Just isn't going to happen no matter what anyone thinks.

The UK has too much invested in The South Atlantic.

It seems more than likely that there are significant oil deposits near The Falklands.
The UK offered to share these with Argentina who for some unknown reason declined the offer.

As mineral resources continue to be squandered at disturbingly alarming rates then it becomes increasingly unlikely the UK would ever give up it's claims on Antartica - and those claims are reliant on the UK maintaining sovereignty over it's South Atlantic dependancies.

In addition it would be political suicide for any UK political party to agree to any transfer of sovereignty to Argentina whilst the conflict is still so fresh in so many peoples minds.

As long as the Falkland Islanders wish to remain part of the UK they will do so....it's really not up for discussion.

As a result the UK has built up 'Fortress Falklands' in an effort to disuade any future Argentinian ideas of military occupation.
The UK could quite easily defend The Falklands from any future attack and if things did get a bit 'heated' I'm sure a few strategically placed missilies fired from our submarines onto the Argentinian mainland would quickly settle things.

im guessing then that some things never change, god what are we like as a nation. I presume they don't still share a respirator and only have half a NBC suit. I reckon during a NBC attack we could have mustered 2 full suits between 10 of us, I wouldnt have liked to have been in that raffle if for real

what has this thread to do with weapons and tactics?
