As an argentinian, Iīm not very pleased about some "Bomb and kill" attitude from some members of this forum.
Argentina and G. Britain has a long standing dispute about the islands, both countries arguing about its rights about the land (How many on this threat studied seriously the issue?). Of course, GB actually posses the lands, so it could do whathever the Queen want on the islands and the adjacent sea.
The only thing Argentina could do is protest. And is the only thing Argentina did. No military threat at all. I think the warmongers are on the other side of the Atlantic.
The "blockade" is just The Sun crap. Just the Argentine government asked ships from the mainland to the islands to notify the trip. Of course, they could denied the entrance to local ports. But thatīs not a "blockade".
