UK. Why? Argentina has no legitimate claim to it. Plus, the UK already won a war over the Falklands. The UK claimed it before they existed as a country. So Spain owned it at one point? That was before they were a country. Argentina should just give up. |

Argentina owned it before the UK invaded it. |

| Argentina Annexed it when the Islands wanted to Remain British, thats one of the reasons the falklands war started, at the time we didn't know the Islands had oil, so the British only fought because the people wanted to remain british. |

"It belongs to America."
Mid, that is the lowest and stupidest thing I've heard from you.
It belongs to the UK. |

Britain won due to the U.S.:
"A report immediately after the war ended concluded the following: "Had all the bombs & missiles (French made) which hit the English ships exploded, the invasion fleet would have suffered 75% of its vessels either sunk or out-of-commission. Blame the Argentine loss on poor French ordinance, particularly bombs. Also, the USA worked behind the scenes to buy all available Exocet missiles, thus depriving Argentina of the one reliable ship-killer."" |

@Above But the USA tried to stop the British from Fighting. The US secretary of state told Maggie not to fight, but she ignored and we won! 300 British Deaths 1000 Argentinian
Plus, life is worth more than oil. They belong to the UK, if the citizens want to remain British, they can. |

Where's your source?
I got mine off the internet a while ago and failed to copy the source, and only got the text. |

My Source: The Iron Lady, a documentary film about Margaret Thatcher. Take. That. Also, the argument which has many eye witnesses and written accounts where Margaret said to the US Secretary of State. " Hawaii is thousands of miles away, if Hawaii was invaded, would you help? " The Secretary of State stood speechless.

| Yeah Argentina was quiet about it after the war but as soon as oil was found they decided they'd bring up the dispute again. |

Zkiller just wants to make Britain look bad, any dispute involving britain's Military he has to bring up the US even if they weren't in anyway related to the conflict. I completely agree with most people here :P |

Not really, I just want people to realize that Britain is only as "powerful" as it is because of outside help. |
