Well, a lot of UK friends in this forum topic.
For the UK, was a limited war, one of many post WWII conflicts (Korea, Suez, Burma...)
For us Argentinians was a total war. One still fresh in individuals and colective memory.
About my point of view, the recuperation (not invasion) of the Malvinas, by force, was a huge mistake.
Note that I only regret the use of force (and sure, the death of people from both sides).
But the goal of the war was (and still is) just. Malvinas Islands are a part of the argentinian territory, mutilated by a british expedition, back in 1883.
Controversial, isn“t???
An Argie point of view.
