Falklands war your views

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, isnÂ´t???

An Argie point of view.
