1982 Falklands (Malvinas) War: a view from across the pond

Good grief, it took you a bloody long time to assemble that post mate! Keyboard hero? Ha! you really do just pull everyone's proverbial.

Same old, same old.

And it's the United Kingdom, not Great Britain. Great Britain is an Island.

P.S. the yoke of oppression was catholicism as you well know, not goats, so don't chop my posts up, unless you're as good at it as I am.

As usual you showed the rest of us what bullying, superficial, racist and ignorant person you are.

Can I invite you to stay on topic and produce evidence on your theories instead of reducing your contributions to personal attacks on me?

Uh and for the record, you can refer to a country with its geographical name: Great Britain, United Kingdom, same difference... England on the other hand is just a country that is part of Great Britain.

Oh Ho!! Reduced to personal insults! The mark of a man running scared!

I don't have to explain anything to you mate. You quite evidently know everything there is to know already.

Isn't it such a shame that the rest of the world doesn't agree with your 'unbiased' opinions though? If only they'd just listen!

Maybe you should walk around the streets with a placard around your neck shouting 'Anything British is Very Bad!', at least you can rest assured that where you live you'd be allowed to do so.

But don't expect everyone in this 'Wonderful Country' to agree with you, that's all.

so far pretty much everybody in this thread seemed to agree with me actually..

or maybe you should stop harassing people with your bullish attitude, stomping into a perfectly civilised thread with your self-righteous attitude, deliberately derailing the conversation to turn it into a personal attack on me, how about that?

Small point of order, but GB and UK are not the same. Let me explain:

Great Britain is EITHER a geographical description of an island OR a political description of the combination of territories known as England, Scotland and Wales.

United Kingdom is actually short for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and is a political description of a whole nation.
