Feel free to continue in ignorance, if that is your wish. I tried to deny it, as the saying goes.
Don't take life so seriously! Chill out, grab a Miller and relax. . .
God, you English toffs are so uptight.

Toff? Couldn't be further from the truth  ! I just wanted to correct some falsehoods, namely that the "Great" in Great Britain is not some sort of
National arrogance, but rather just geography.
But you're right. We're all Great in the UK, our history proves it.

It had a striving community long before the war began and i should know i have spent 12 months there (2 Six month tours)
Man i can even tell you about one man and his wife who sat in their living room in a armchair with the curtains open and out of their panoramic living
room window on the shoreline watched battles at port san carlos live.
To beat that one minute they would have British knocking on the door asking for tea then half hour later argintinians knocking on the door asking for
milk!!! I know because i sat in his armchair and was amazed at what he told me.
Yes the population slightly rose since the war but there was a hefty community there already before the war
Thanks for that fantastic insight to the war(star for you sir),I think with the experience our great troops have had in Iraq and afghanistan we would
be well prepared for anything that may happen there.

It's pathetic to see people on the 21st century being "patriotic", in particular in this forum, where everybody supposedly is aware of what
governments are, how countries were formed, and be loyal to a flag that was imposed to you by birth without you having anything to say about it.
A flag that even has his agenda probably against you.
