But unfortunately her spirit prevails
What should we have done when the dictator Galtieri invaded the Falklands then?
Are you referring to Las Malvinas?
What we should not have done is remove HMS Endurance from the Falklands.
"In January 1982, Mrs Thatcher wrote to the Tory MP Richard Needham, defending the decision to scrap the only British warship in the vicinity of the Falklands, HMS Endurance. The government needed to save money.
Three months later, with Endurance in the wrong place and the Falklands under Argentine occupation, her government was plunged into what contemporaries saw as the worst overseas crisis since the loss of the Suez Canal".
The Royal Navy left Malta in 1979 for the last time. One week later the Libyan navy moved in and took over all of our assets.

Where to start with that?
Las Malvinas son Argentinas.

You Argentinian now are you? Or are you just a Celtic fan? Btw the latter is far far worse
Staying on topic, Donald has confused me again, wasn’t it last week he was telling our fake Tory sir kier that the war was over, we didn’t need a boat, now he trying to blackmail the whole of nato into helping out by sending lots of boats…..you do wonder if he has any clue what he’s doing from day to day, very much like our sludge.

From Truth Social:

The United States has been informed by most of our NATO “Allies” that they don’t want to get involved with our Military Operation against the Terrorist Regime of Iran, in the Middle East, this, despite the fact that almost every Country strongly agreed with what we are doing, and that Iran cannot, in any way, shape, or form, be allowed to have a Nuclear Weapon. I am not surprised by their action, however, because I always considered NATO, where we spend Hundreds of Billions of Dollars per year protecting these same Countries, to be a one way street — We will protect them, but they will do nothing for us, in particular, in a time of need. Fortunately, we have decimated Iran’s Military — Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti-Aircraft and Radar is gone and perhaps, most importantly, their Leaders, at virtually every level, are gone, never to threaten us, our Middle Eastern Allies, or the World, again! Because of the fact that we have had such Military Success, we no longer “need,” or desire, the NATO Countries’ assistance — WE NEVER DID! Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea. In fact, speaking as President of the United States of America, by far the Most Powerful Country Anywhere in the World, WE DO NOT NEED THE HELP OF ANYONE! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
We really need the 'Wibble' here!

Meanwhile in Beijing and Moscow the cheeky grins are turning into full blown smirks!
That reads a lot like someone trying to convince themselves that there is a plan. I think we've gone way past the point where anyone could pretend that there is method in the madness. He's not doing a 'bit' ,we genuinely do have a leader of the free world this incompetent .
On the plus side ,it will be nice for everyone's grandkids to get the chance to learn Chinese.
If you study his history, you'll see that he's always been 'incompetent".
The only things that he was competent at were settling out of court payments, to the parents of kids that he had raped or sodomised and snorting industrial strength quantities of cocaine.
That last habit has left him with bowels so damaged, that whenever he farts, he follows through.
The persin always waiting in the wings, with clean bundies and a fresh pair of trousers, has got a job for life.
Re 'Their airforce has gone'.
Phantom 4 jets! They were the only Phantom 4 jets left flying in the world. Most of them were older than .....
They were old, when the US 'gifted' them to the late Shah's airforce, purely for training and display.
His young son would play with one over the skies of Tehran, of a summers afternoon.
He's a pensioner now, never done a day's work in his life. Spent the last 47 years, living off the money that the Shah stole from the people of Iran.
The Israeli's have had him snogging the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, so he's the Netanyahu/Trump choice to run Iran.
He's got an Ology in debauchery, so he must be qualified.

Greenland's answer to MAGA hats.
The 'Nu het NUUK' slogan on the hats is a play on words, 'Nu het nok' meaning the equivalent of "That's enough" with the town name of Nuuk being substituted for the word 'nok' (enough) i.e. "That's eNUUK", as it were. Well it works as a pun in the local tongue anyway is
It’s Japan’s turn this time.

It just gets worse every day. To think he’s the most powerful man in the world, is plain scary.
Donald 'Bone Spur' Trump - who single-handedly won the Second World War, the Vietnam War and the War of Jenkins' Ear - has called out his (one time) allies as 'cowards' for not piling in with him and his mate Ben Netanyahu in an illegal and cocked-up war against Iran!
Trump has criticised Nato members for failing to offer warships to help patrol the strategic waterway. In the social media post, he said:
Without the U.S.A., NATO IS A PAPER TIGER! They didn’t want to join the fight to stop a Nuclear Powered Iran. Now that fight is Militarily WON, with very little danger for them, they complain about the high oil prices they are forced to pay, but don’t want to help open the Strait of Hormuz, a simple military maneuver that is the single reason for the high oil prices. So easy for them to do, with so little risk. COWARDS, and we will REMEMBER!

We will remember too, Mr Orange.
Just for clarity, NATO is defined as a “collective defence alliance”.

Mad what happens when you spend a year dishing out tariffs, insulting your allies, belittling their contribution to your last war and threatening to invade Greenland isn't it. His threats to remember are meaningless because he'd already destroyed any faith that a Trump led US would help Europe in a conflict anyway
