In 1982, the Royal Navy had approximately 90 warships from which it could assemble a task force. Today it has 30.

Blame America for being a super power and protecting the world; allowed for those such cuts.

Whenever you depend on Gov't you will suffer. Relying on America has provided the security for European countries to expand their domestic welfare programs and everlasting vacations.

If there is another war down there it will be Barry’s fault because the Argentines will have have misread our intentions (just as some addle-brained general down there misread the Monroe Doctrine in 1982)

“In 1982, the Royal Navy had approximately 90 warships from which it could assemble a task force. Today it has 30.”

They were not able to assemble a completely capable task force in 1982 without our help.

If not for the legendary cowardice of the Argentine troops, the Falklands war would have been over before they got their task force down there, and then they’d have needed an invasion force.
