      I feel like that’s justified though. Both sides were out in the middle of fuck all squabbling over a rock with a handful of people on it, very few civilian casualties, low stakes for both countries (well ok, maybe not for the specific governments, but neither side had to worry about being invaded anywhere that really mattered to them). Compared to something like the Ukraine war, it’s more of a skirmish.

      EDIT: to be clear, I do not want the Falkland’s to be “my war”, it was a stupid war.
