No problem, allow me to elaborate. 13 colonies were gradually founded by Britain on the eastern coast of North America, along with other colonies. To keep their holdings, the British crown _literally_ sent troops across the Atlantic, which aided in their efforts to maintain control when the colonists rebelled. That clear things up?

@@UCN2027 Did I say civilians though?

Half trained? I've spoke to quite a few of our veterans from 3 Para charged with the recapture of Mt Longdon initially. They all say there weren't many conscripts there and that the Argentine soldiers fought with valour and balls. There's absolutely zero disrespect at all. I think Ian McKay got a VC for his bravery during the operation, when in truth they all served one. To put this into perspective Britain in a week-end got together a task force who sailed 8000 miles across to the other side of the world, into their winter and launched an attack against enemy forces who had been allowed to dig in and take all the premium spots and oust them. They did that quite unbelievable job in a little over 2 months. This is the stuff of legend people, even the most partisan Argentinians must agree with that when looked at properly. They won't though because of the military junta propaganda at the time. Sadly they've still not given up their rights to sovereignty of the islands and know one day they'll get them but know it can't be by conventional force. This whole operation sent out ripples to the world.

I think apart from places close to Stanley like Tumbledown where there were highly trained and experienced forces this is true

Osório you're aware the Argentina lost right?

Eric Sales leaders start wars but its the regular soldiers that do the dying , ww1 was an awful war marching into German machine guns etc , Vietnam vets were treated very badly by there own people, on returning to the usa, 'cannon fodder' as one general called foot soldiers. But i guess they know the score when they decide to join up.

Eric Sales because they don't want to risk "disappearing."

My history professor was sent to Falklands, he told us that with his group were always joking that Argentinian engineering squads were more deadlier than the Brits for they tendency to not mark or even warn about any minefield they set up, so they always end up marching into "friendly" minefields that has been set up recently. One classmate asked if he saw someone blow up, he said "saw it, no, but I've heard it, I don't want to talk about it too much because it really piss me off"

At the Beginning we sent a Amphibious Special Gropu from the Navy and they stayed there a few weeks but the goverment sent them to the frontier with Chile,After that the most part of the Army was Conscripts,Gendarmerie Officers and some true Soldiers with experience fighting the Guerrilla in the 70s,but really not with a professional army

And many other British contributions that have helped shape what we understand as Argentine today are deliberately forgotten , while Anglophobes burn Union Jacks in a square to feel less guilty about secretly admiring England and the United Kingdom in general .

As a nation you need to go through grief about what happened. Don’t blame yourselves. Just recognise what you did, and why. There will be a whole set of emotions going on through the population that caused them to have such a dictator in power and not do anything. There was a lot of injustice involved there. But from Britain’s point of view it was just our comeuppance really.

Well.. they forced argentinians out of the islands in 1833, where there was not a real defense.

CaptainRexTM since they claimed the islands in 1690 I think that predates 1833...a little bit

Actually, the islands were Argentinean until in 1833 the British arrived and conquered it, and I know that the UK as other countries wants more power and more power, the Islas Malvinas are territoriality Argentinean, Malvinas argentinas

Lucas Palomino you mean 1690 when the English originally arrived..and Argentina was a Spanish colony. So if it’s not british it would belong to Spain, not Argentina. Furthermore, you lost the war...

You know that Shakespeare, Elisabeth I and Francis Bacon spoke Spanish perfectly, like all English aristocratic families in the 16th and 17th centuries. In fact Shakespeare wrote The Tempest, calling on Spain to invade England, to free her. Prospero (Duke of Milan), is Philip II (Duke of Milan, King of Spain and King of England and Ireland). Sycorax, the evil witch, is Elisabeth I. Caliban, the deformed monster, is the Anglicans (deformed about Shakespeare's Catholicism). I don't mind speaking American English on the Internet, 5 minutes a day, until I have to speak Chinese 5 minutes a day. You know that when the British Empire died, nobody spoke English, the international language was French. In my country almost nobody studied American English until 1980. When the 13 colonies became independent with the help of Spain, which made a naval block to Britain capturing 80 British warships full of soldiers and weapons, Spain owned 65% of the territory The USA, from Florida to Alaska, and the USA adopted the Spanish dollar, not the pound sterling. The United States did the same, and then sold many hamburgers and E.T. E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial worldwide. But the great culture is European. The most spoken language in the West is Spanish: 500 million speakers (460 million native speakers. More than English). But in addition, Spanish and Portuguese are 90% similar languages ​​(I understand the Portuguese language without studying it, and without translation), so there are 260 million more, who speak Iberian mother tongue. 760 million natives in total, and the growth is very fast.

The warship Guerrico if anyone is wondering.

The islands were ours till 1833, times of the Confederacy.

Since the Argentinian Sea was extended, it reaches one of the islands, not sure if that counts as territorial "Ownage"

Y hasta que encontre al tipico puto vendido, no le importa dar el orto con tal que la pija no sea argenta!!!

WillArg No me molesta que no sea nuestra porque perdimos.

Pablo Herrera learn the difference between de facto and de jure ownership. The Argies set up a settlement in the islands without the permission of either England, who claimed them by right of discovery, or Spain, the only other nation with any kind of claim. You had a de facto possession of the island for a time, until you tried to actually exert sovereignty over the waters around the islands and the United States promptly said "Right, no you don't. Off home you go!" and home you went, under the guns of the US Navy. You never had a de jure claim to the islands. You SQUATTED there. And when you got obnoxious, a neutral third party drove you off and you could do nothing about it. The islands were not yours. End of story.

But you have no right to do that just like Argentina had no rights to start the Falklands war

Also Argentina's use of mines violates Geneva; dumping non-expiring cluster mines out of choppers on farms no where near the fighting, bombing of military hospitals ect.
