If it were the yanks, they would probably have ended the war with one carrier and few ships accompanying it. And some ranger battalions to collect the POW's. At a huge cost of civilian population. Those who comment here to trash Brits, because they hate England, should bear in mind that Falklands are better off with the Brits. It has its own population that are accustomed to certain life style and changing it would be tragic. Enough to see what Soviet culture did to occupied countries.

@facu109 Are you trying to say you sank HMS Invincible? You mean the ship which was decomissioned in 2005 after 25 years service? It's bloody well sat in the UK in reserve at the moment, so quite how you're able to claim you sunk it is anyone's guess. You probably think you won the war too.

@facu109 ...

Oh of course you sank the invincible... we just cloned the entire crew before they left and put them on an EXACTLY IDENTICAL ship so that the people in the UK didn't know of the humiliating defeat we suffered....

Your country is obviously still force feeding you propaganda of the events. You probably think that the people living on the falklands are Argentians and being held as slaves to their british masters.

One of the biggest lies perpetrated on this subject is this myth that Argentina has a legal right to the Falklands. Once--just once--they occupied them in the 19th Century and only by piracy. They're outlaws.

@35legrand The Falkland islanders have ALWAYS run THEIR ISLAND.

Under the Rule of the British.

As we have done..as we will do.,,,FOR EVER!!!!

Being the Imperialist bastards that we are ;)

@bluemule179 Oh... I just laught a lot.. Empire building, more land and more resources?? Thanks for that words, that summs it up. Thank you England, or British EMPIRE.

[35legrand]

@bluemule179 Read.. read.. educated; please!!! This is an idiotic statement! Ask to one, just one spaniard who isn't bad about Gibraltar. Is a part of their country taken by pirates.

[35legrand]

@bluemule179 I called you country shitty for the same reason you made so stupid nazi's comments. Don't be shocked, it is in your nature to be agressive.

[35legrand]

@bluemule179 Ok? No.. becouse? I know what rates my countries has, instead you talk your ass off speaking trash.

[35legrand]

@bluemule179 The same grunts that kicked Paras asses on top of Mount London and Tumbledown? The same conscripts that fought professional soldiers with extreme courage and no fear? The same conscripts that fought, like you said ill equipped and poorly trained, but FOUGHT for THE FLAG and COUNTRY? You kwno what, keep those commentaries coming, they really make my day. I tend to laught a lot with you..

[35legrand]

@bluemule179 Povert Rates? Are you still in the 90's? What an idiot...
