Los putos ingleses trajeron su imperio de mierda a america latina. Los Argentinas hicieron qué todos paises harían. Thatcher es una maricona tambien. Los Malvinas Son Argentinas

Before the war, Thatcher was remarkably unpopular, at one point even polling behind the SDP.

It's almost as though there's a period between being elected and the next election during which your popularity can change.

>>1246566

>Michael Cockerell, who covered the Beaconsfield* campaign for the BBC, revealed to Hastings that Blair subsequently told Robin Cook: "The thing I learned from Beaconsfield is that wars make prime ministers popular."
* Constituency by-election during the Falklands War. The only constituency election Blair ever lost, though it was a safe Tory seat.

>Wars make prime ministers popular

The Super Etendard is the Argentine plane featured in the cartoon. They were pretty successful in combination with the French Exocet missile attacking the British fleet. Sea Harriers scored the only air-air kills of the war though. The Super Etendard wouldn't have gotten in range to dogfight as the Exocet was fired at stand off range.

it's an accurate description of the level of delusion Argentina operates on, they refuse to admit that they literally never even went to the Falklands in their entire history

>in their entire history
If this was the case, what the fuck were the Brits fighting? Sheep and Penguins with fighters from Frogs?
