Depends who wrote the history books!
I was there in 82 and was in one of the first wave of Marines to go ashore
At the end of it the Argentinian officers where allowed to keep their side arms to protect them from their own troops
Most of the troops where left starving and where pleased to surrender to get food and medical attention and even uncontaminated water
The troops Argentinian troops in Stanly used to drop their pants anywhere including in peoples living rooms and just take a dump
Leaving oil aside as the war was never fought because of oil - what on earth would Argentina do with it anyway - its just a windswept treeless rock in the south Atlantic
The war was fought for the people not the land and the UK will never give up its people until they say they do not want to be British any more
Whoosh
