Bingo..RN has NO carriers..can’t project force..

I think a cruise missile flying low over Buenos Aires might get the point across.

Will the Brits ask the US to deal with the situation this time?

Nukes project force just fine. The Argies are banking on the Brits letting them have the Falklands. But if it comes down to the Argies committing atrocities I’m thinking it might behoove Cristina to put on her SPF 45,000,000,000 sunscreen.

Actually we still can.

We still have HMS Illustrious.

Due to be scrapped in 2014, but if this nonsense continues, I can see it being kept until the new carriers are due (2018-2020).
