This is an interesting one now, I would say the opposite. If I called you a liar surely it would be down to me to prove you were one?
Yeah but nobody called anyone a liar did they?

You maybe right, plus Argentina was in a pretty awful political and economic state at the time, so those kind of tactics would of been painful for them

Still no chance of the UK using nuclear weapons though, that would be utterly unthinkable in those circumstances. It is, and has always been a nuclear deterent, not an offensive weapon. The global consequences of using it unilaterally are totally incalculable

Why was it irrelevant, it was maybe irrelevant in your eyes but it was relevant to me.
