    If Argentina’s best argument is “It’s our because it’s next to us”, then boy do I have bad news for the Republic of Ireland.

    One of the 3 who voted said he did it because he was worried that the vote was rigged if it came back 100%

    “You have landed unlawfully on British territory, and I order you to remove yourself and your troops forthwith” 🤣

    Argentina always pulls this card when they are in trouble.

    I was a missionary in a small village in the Dominican Republic in 1982. A drunk took a swing at me one evening "for his brothers in Argentina." I had no idea what he was shouting about but when the Falkland conflict was explained to me by others who came to intervene, I tried to diffuse the situation by explaining that I was American, not British. He rushed at me again shouting "Even worse!"

    Years later, while participating in Australian documentary about the islands, Patrick Watts summed up the confusion Argentine soldiers had quite well:<br><br>&quot;You know, it was okay for Galtiari to be telling everybody, &apos;oh, the Malvinas are ours, you boys have got to fight to the death, you&apos;ve got to fight forever.&apos; But when they got here, no one was here to welcome them, no one wanted them, we didn&apos;t speak the same language, they must have wondered what the hell they were doing here.&quot;

    I&apos;m from a very small town in BC called Falkland. I spent a bunch of my childhood in the 80s confused why my town was in the news and why people got excited when they asked where I was from.

    The funny thing about Argentina decreeing that the islands would now drive on the right hand side, was that the majority of the road network was single lane only 😂

    You failed to mention the most important part, where Jeremy, Richard and James got ran out of Argentina by a mob.😁

    What an amazing video. The idea to do this mainly from the perspective of the islanders was exactly what a video like this needed.

    I was one of the 115 civilians incarcerated at Goose Green by the Argentines, we will never forgive or forget.
