"Interesting to see supposed ex-military making fun of killing and destruction" What's that supposed to mean? Can you imagine the killing and destruction if the Belgrano with her 6 & 10 inch guns and torpedo tubes had been allowed to get within range of the Falklands? No of course you cant and that's because you're a clueless fuckin civvy who cant see further then the end of your nose. I don't agree with the glee displayed at the death of sailors on a ship that was outside the "exclusion zone" and sailing away towards port. You obviously see no problem.
Just reinforces my opinion that Britain's military and Police have problems with recruiting sufficiently normal people, who are not so jingoistic and malleable to be ultimately brainwashed into believing they're superior that normal respect for others doesn't apply to them...
FO. They invaded the Falklands with brute force you big bad bell.

I see absolutely no problem in a war with taking out an enemy ship that was a threat to our task force. Perhaps you think we shouldn't have shot down 37 argentine aircraft as well..

Very glad to be out of the EU. As for Argentina, the socialists there bankrupted them and their military is in ruins. The UK is not out of difficulties with its inflation of 7.9% when the EU is on 5% and the US on 3% — are you sure the UK’s current economic downward spiral is worth it…?

A ship of war of an enemy nation that had orders to turn and take part in a pincer movement against the British fleet.
Legitimate military target and it was necessary to sink her. Galtieri shouldn't have invaded. Simple as that.
And the EU should not appease Argentine claims on the islands. The islanders are sovereign, they do not wish to be ruled by Argentina.
