“” “” That makes me wonder if now is a good time for Argentina to retake the Falkland Islands? “” “”

The first adventure was actually a couple inches from disaster and only a great deal of luck and even MORE incompetence on the other side prevented it.
It is hard to predict would people act foolishly or not but I believe they know themselves not to push anything like that right now.

Yeah the Argentines were inept back then. But I wonder if they bring their ships up close and fire on the islands, they could probably retake it. The Brits do not have an aircraft carrier and the Falklands are thousands of miles away so how would they resupply the isolated garrison?
