It will just cost a few missiles to sink any ship, or down and planes that enter Falkland waters and she will crawl back on her hole.

The only ship we have there has the fire power to make a ground war unlikely.

It would be quick and simple. Our weapons are far in advance of there's. Anyway the Government will find the money from somewhere they always do. Maybe if we tell the yanks they can have some of the oil we found they will help.

We did not have the weapons we have now including cruise missiles and much better air defence systems. Don't forget that our Eurofighter typhoon can engage an enemy plane over the horizon. This time it will be one way traffic.

An Argentine company has developed a map for the popular online game Counter Strike in which players fight British "terrorists" on the Falkland Islands.
Well the owners of counter strike should remove it.

Plus we should tell the argies call it the Falkland Island as we refuse to recognise the word you use.

And they say the same. Best not react to it. It's just silliness.

how many games do we play that we go off shooting Arabs in ? we do it why shouldn't they? It does not bother me and if I was still as good as I used to be I would try to join the map and own them a bit ( plus of course some fun baiting lol)

Argentina has begun legal proceedings against three British and two US companies for drilling oil near the Falkland Islands.
Daniel Filmus, Argentina's minister for the islands - called the Malvinas locally - announced the case in London.
The companies involved are Falkland Oil and Gas, Premier Oil, Rockhopper, Edison International and Noble Energy.
Mr Filmus told the BBC the companies were "performing illegal acts by entering Argentine territory".
Here we go again.
