Denigrating the service record of the armed forces here is a dangrous thing to do.
So why are you talking to me for?
Fortunately, the Argentine military is world renowned for it's cowardice and incompetence...
I take every opportunity to remind you filthy apes ...
Yeah. And on the ninth day, Argentian stormtroopers would have held a victory dance at Port Stanley.
etc. etc.
Maybe this a bit off topic but does anyone know of any good recent pictures of ARA General Belgrano. I can't find any.
Strange, I can´t find any pictures of HMS Sheffield, HMS coventry, etc.,etc.,etc., either. Wait, I found them. They´re painted on the noses of Argentine aircraft.
If you ask current West Germans if they appreciated Nato, and American, troops stationed in their lands for over 30 years, you will get a near resounding "Ja!"
This is what you say. But that´s not what I´m reading from these people with Germany by their locations.
Those, and the people who demand that the US be eternally celebrated as heroes for exercising said enlightened self-interest.
I think you're wrong here. Not tanks or soldiers saved us from another great tragedy, but nuclear deterrence.
To paraphrase it: with German missiles targeting Moscow the presence of american forces would have been obsolete.
The solely reason we depended on you was due to the outcome of WW2 and the fact that Germany didn't get allowed to rebuild her military forces. Without these restriction we wouldn't need someone to guarantee our safety, neither did Germany - or Prussia before - for the past 200 years.
So there is a difference of opinion it seems.
Lastly, I doubt the Soviet Union actually had the strength to pull off what you are arguing above. Historians mostly assert now that Soviet strength was more of a paper tiger than once thought, and that there was less central control of the Soviet military than once believed.
Nuclear bombs falling on European cities is a paper tiger? If that is a paper tiger what is a real tiger for you? Your plan was to fight a conventional war and hope it doesn´t escalate to nuclear weapons right? That wasn´t their plan. Their plan was wrapped around the use of nuclear weapons from the start. And no, don´t doubt they couldn´t have and wouldn´t have delivered them because you saw East Berlin didn´t have fancy cars and clubs. After the destruction to Russia in WW2 they wouldn´t have thought a second about it.
Well, you lost two of the last 3 wars you fought and, well... aren't the folks in Prussia speaking Polish these days? No offense, of course.
Your recent record is? and, well...how many communities there are speaking Spanish these days mate?
Yeah. And on the ninth day, Argentian stormtroopers would have held a victory dance at Port Stanley. But look how much Argentina appreciates them.
The New York Times Doggie? That´s a joke. I could tear that entire article apart in 3 seconds it´s so full of lies.
The easiest one to show you would be this one.
New York Times-There is not one national war hero, not even among the daring pilots who fearlessly attacked Britain's superior fleet and sank six of its warships. It has done little to eulogize its 600 dead or console its 1,300 wounded.
Now that´s what your USA article said, here is the reality and there are many, many more.
