You're taking this too far, you are willing to open up an entire new argument simply to justify your own selfish means? There were unjustified attacks from both the Irish AND the English. Your ignorance is astounding. The Irish are our friends and will remain so for the foreseeable future, we are of the same blood despite the numerous invasions of England our gene pool remains around 70% Celtic.
you're wasting your breath; this kind of vitriol and hatred is basically at the heart of the "Falklands are British" argument
it's like people who say "I don't support the KKK - I just don't want blacks in my child's classroom" ... you're just two stones removed
unfortunately, many Britons don't realize the kind of hatemongering and extremism they're singing onto when they join the nationalist chest-thumpers/crypto-BNPers who control the British side of the discussion - this is kind of why the whole world (except France) has aligned against the UK on this ... it's just too ugly of an argument the UK presents, for their all-white South Atlantic volkstaat
Don't lump the pro-British falklands argument into the same lot as him please, you are just as bad as him if you group an entire side of people based on the actions of the few.

I'm British. I believe you were thanking me earlier.

This is how I would do it:
PHASE 1:
Fire a volley of Argentina's new PCX missiles at Mount Pleasant, destroying the airfield and grounding the four (4) Eurofighters. If the Eurofighters are already in the air, just take a walk around the block until they run out of fuel and start dropping out of the sky with nowhere to land.
PHASE 2:
Land 3 batteries of 155mm arty in the undefended west Malvinas.
PHASE 3:
Send a chartered cruise ship under Brazilian Red Cross markings to Stanley. Telephone Stanley and inform them they have 4 hours for every last person to get aboard the ship.
PHASE 4:
Begin firing off 100 High-Explosive rounds per hour at Stanley from the arty. Within 10 hours, 1,000 rounds will have dropped on the town - 2 shells for every building.
PHASE 5:
Three weeks later the Royal Navy "fleet" - with no aircraft carriers since they don't have any left - arrives and motors around the islands shaking their fists ... but nothing else since they have no aircraft.
