What was the political motive of the Falklands War?
lmao ask argentina
Muh land. Muh defence of property.
Fish
smacking up argies lmao
An attempt by the failing Argie government to regain support by casting Britain as an outside enemy
The argies use the Falklands as a political football whenever there's civil unrest, to take attention away from how corrupt and incompetent their government is. There was also some oil in that area but I think we've sucked it all up by now.
Deflection from internal government politics in Argentina
they +150k fal down there, waste of rifles imhosmdhdesufampai
Dick measuring
>government losing trust and power
>UHHH QUICK INVADE BRITAIN
And so 1000 men died.
P.S. Argentina is based.
To undo the Monroe Doctrine.
>be third world spic dictatorship
>invade british territory
wtf were they thinking?
Distract the population from their demands for the Military Junta to quit power.
they figured it was too far away for us to effectively fight without international support, which they figured we wouldn;t get thanks to muh ebil colonialism
to be fair literally noone thought we could do it militarily at first, even our allies
Is it true the Argentian army consisted mainly of conscripts? Was it a bunch of random 18-22 year old civilians just randomly picked to go and get slaughted by Royal Marines?
>political motive of the Falklands War?
Argentina needed to send some of their whitest soldiers to get shot
>pic related
To get that faggot coke head diego Maradona to play for the Spurs
#COYS
Yes.
>Is it true the Argentian army consisted mainly of conscripts?
yeah. they had to keep most of their proper units on the CHilean border. Turns out jewing your neighbours repeatedly means you have to watch your back
We are pathetic aren't we, its a disgrace we should have a fortress of a country and a military that'll literally clap any enemy but instead we get bogged down in corruption and corporatism with a side dish of Marxism. Fucking galactic embarrassment, we could have owned the very stars themselves
This mess all started with Chamberlain and Churchill if you trace it back.
I would have applied for citizenship to a British space colony. Sad all we got was Jackie Chan.
We've only ever been able to dominate shitholes full of subhumans. The British empire is massively overrated.

If the British empire were still alive we'd have colonised Mars by now. Instead we just have the globalist ISS which is gunna get eclipsed by whatever the chinks are making.
About 40% were conscripts. They Argentinians were a serious fighting force, but they were relying on being resupplied from the mainland and genuinely believed the British would do nothing.
Once British submarines sunk the Belgrano, the Argentinians realised they couldn't resupply the ground troops.
last gasp at holding on to the meager remnants of a dead Empire
slow down pirate, Spanish crown would be landed in Mars first than you like in the rest of the continents.
based and redpilled
Spain = shit tier country
>Spain = shit tier country
>Sweden is projected to have a lower HDI than Mexico, Bulgaria and Libya in 2030.
This has to be fake
Keep your chin up, Spain. You may get back to relevancy some decade. Until then, enjoy your poverty.
its real. we are a super power now
what poverty?
Cyprus is going up but also we are overflowing with niggers and muslim migrants.
Don't you have like 40% youth unemployment?
no
>gets cucked, shows graph indicating how shit tier Spain is
True. If It wasn't for the jews who fled Spain and settled in London and Amsterdam pirating gold by creating paper money which could be printed out of thin air by anyone and rented to losers for interest rates, Marvel Spain would have dominated the whole cosmos.
and why do they have better quality of life than you?
Spanish and Porutugese > jewish puppet anglo empire
Spain is great though, you jew.
>dominate shitholes full of subhumans
Isn't that the whole point? Why would we want to enslave Europeans?
God, i cant think of anything worse than living to 82, yet being Spanish
The final assertion of dominance of a now dead Empire, lost to history forever.
be an amerimutt. Because you poop yourselves at walmart.
Should there be a political motive for us to defend our Empire?
>islands controlled half and half by Spanish Empire and the Argentina and British Empire
>Britain leaves put muh diks by trying to claim it despite having no personnel on the ground
>70 years later comes back and muh diks despite there being Argentinian farmers living there
>capitalist protestant scum send hordes of displaced Scottish highlanders to settle land even though Argentina had de facto ruled and had settlements on the islands for nearly a century uninterrupted
>sperg out at each other
>Scots breed like rabbits due to being well aclimatised to rainy, shit, barren rocky hell holes facing the ocean
>Argentina has a currency crisis and muh diks trying to get its islands back
>UK has roastie in charge and sends some cucks there who get BTFO
>tides turn and they eventually BTFO Argentina
>now a bunch of inbred low IQ Scottish descent weirdos on some little shithole on the other side of the planet get to pretend they are British still despite being literal niggers and just stealing the islands from Spanish speaking cattle herders
....happened during the Suez crisis in 1957. This was just a country defending its clay.
I was around then, knew some of the lads that went. It was a different time a different mind set.
The Argentina's wanted a distraction for their people. The junta was tough guys. America was fucked after Vietnam and the western belief at that time was you just couldn't win against a determined population. Britain was fucked after Callaghan, Thatcher struggling. Also we had announced we were stopping patrols to save money. The Argentinean thought they don't want it we will have it. They were wrong. The fact that we won it against the odds. Changed the defeatist attitude of the west. Reagan sensed that and invaded some island of his own, and America started too get over the Vietnam defeat. That eventually lead to the fall of Russia.
Nah we will be bigger than China and the pther powerhouses after the Bolivarian Revolution and the foundation of Patria Grande.
AMLO soberano.
Bernie Presidente.
Cuba sin Embargos.
Chávez Vive.
Lula Libre.
Viva Maduro.
