I don't know what you are smoking or drinking but I want some.
I had been living in Argentina for a year(I'm Spanish with family there), and something more in UK. Argentina could not compete in a war against UK, period.
The industrial base is so overwhelming in favor of UK that Argentina has not an option.(industry is what supports war, not soja). If they need it, they could create whatever planes they need, including US drones.
The people in Europe is disciplined, Argentina is a chaos, everything is disorganized, the UK army is fighting wars with US as a partner right now, they are so much better trained in real combat.
UK has nuclear weapons, Argentina do not. UK needs Falkland as a base for the Antarctic continent, and fishing.
UK situation is stable(with all the crisis, crisis in Europe is "normal' in Argentina).
UK is not a fried of the USA, it is the father of the USA. They could have problems from time to time but when when push comes to shove they are relatives.
USA is not going to tolerate an invasion of Falkland(whatever the Argentinians feel about Maldivas as their own). They don't want conflicts.
- moomin 15y agoHear hear. Besides which, the UK actually has the moral high ground here. There's no native population yearning to break free of the British yoke here. What there is is a self-governing democracy with large country next door intent on enforcing territorial claims that were murky when they last occupied the place 200 years ago.
