Argentina has neither the moral or historic right to The Falklands.
The Falklands will remain a British Dependancy as long as the Islanders themselves wish to.
There are still to many vet's from the last conflict here in the UK and it would be political suicide for any party to even consider handing the
islands back.
And probably more importantly, there is untold mineral wealth in the area which the UK will hold the rights for.
Even though our Armed Forces have disgracefully been run down we are still far too strong for Argentina.
All of this has been stated before.
Re-read this thread, put aside your patriotism for a while and seriously consider what the probable outcome of any conflict would be; another
humiliating defeat for Argentina and far too many deaths, on both sides.
I don't know how old you are but can you remember all the dead bodies returning to Argentina in 1982?
Can you remember the humiliating pictures of thousands of Argentinian soldiers surrendering to a small handful of British soldiers?
I suspect that if Argentina tries again then the results would be far worse.
Put your own house in order first.
