If Argentina do invade the Falklands again I`m pretty sure the final result would be the same as the last time even without the help of the united States of trump.(If he decides the US don`t want to get involved)
The two countries (UK Vs Argentina) respective military budgets tell a tale.
Fact is that Argentina have never really got over their defeat the first time.
Doesn`t mean they won`t try again though.... Or it could just be sabre rattling to deflect from their economic problems.
It`s not the first time they`ve threatened to retake the islands and it`s always been when things aren`t going well for them.
Time will tell .
It`s certainly interesting to say the least.


There was 127 ships involved in the 80’s operation.

We now have 63 total.

Thankfully Argentina has basically zero navy these days

Nothing to do with Falklands, that`s to do with Russia.

This is probably a bit if both.

Israeli politicians saying that Britains has stolen the Falklands from Argentina……despite setting up settlements on the island BEFORE Argentina existed as a country 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

Think your playing in a current political set up is different to what it was in Argentina technicality…

Britain took control of the Falkland Islands in January 1833. As part of that we chased away Argentina’s military that were based there before establishing our administration

Yep, the 99.5% of people who voted in their most recent referendum to stay within the UK.

The 3 people who voted to leave (perhaps just one household) will be happy though.
