The Falklands
#15
OK history update.. the REAL version Wink
America only entered ww2, AFTER they were attacked 2 thirds of the way through after hiding their heads in the sand for 3 years, and it certainly wasn't a rescue, a help yes, a rescue no.
The United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, India, and others, would have finished to the same conclusion.

Perhaps I could mention ww1?
It seems American forgets it happened.

It always amazes me how Americans always pop up with the WW2 thing.

Lets talk The Falklands war, in which we sent our Navy around the world to fight and liberate the islands, taking weeks to get there.

We asked America to lend us equipment, so we could liberate the Islands weeks earlier, America refused, saying it was nothing to do with them.

Now, Argentina is beating the war drum, they have been condemned by Australia, Poland, even France and Germany.
Not a peep from America.
The only time America pops up, is when it directly benefits them.

Libya, last year, Britain and France patrolled the skies and provided support to the rebels, America sent a General to watch.

Syria, now, America is sitting on it's hands, yet Britain is trying to get a UN mandate allowing military force to protect the civilians.
It's sad when France, the old enemy, is backing us, yet the so called 'special friend' is remaining silent.

Not that American forces not being involved is a bad thing, nearly 40% of British deaths in Afghanistan has been caused by a direct result or the Americans dropping bombs in the wrong place.

The 'special relationship' is all one way.

The UN will not interfere with the Falklands issues, just like in the 80s.
The UN has been demanding we talk to the Argies for years, we say no chance, the UN says ok.
