Henry Kissinger: Thatcher Would Not Compromise on Falklands 

It wasn’t that simple. While Britain was right, Thatcher threatened to drop a nuke on Buenos Aires in back channel diplomacy talks. This puts the US in a bad position as the entire American continent is protected by US nuclear umbrella.

@@gerimorell I've never heard that rumour, I think it most unlikely since the MoD even vetoed a plan to take out the Super Etendards and their pilots by an SAS attack on their mainland base. One of the reasons for the Vulcan attack was to demonstrate that we had the ability to hit the mainland but would not use it unless needed,

@@johnallen7807 not a rumor, there are several books and reports about it, including a recent one in which someone close to the French president says that. The American position was not an easy one. We were lucky the fighting did not escalate and other latin American countries did not support Argentina. Google it, if i remember correctly she wanted the codes of French misiles the Argentinians had

@@gerimorell The "codes" were information on the French made Exocet of which they had five and on which French technicians worked throughout the war. They were lucky we didn't nuke Paris never mind Bueno Aires! We also got a lot of support from Chile, indeed it was fear of them that made the junta keep many of their best troops on that border rather than in the Falklands.

Our boys did the job on their own. Quite frankly, an unprecedented military achievement of the post WW2 era. SO much risk.

She needed to win for her election campaign which started when she sold Argentina MOD Maps of the South Atlantic. Wake up Dorothy.

@James Henderson If that was the the case then why did Argentina decide to invade the islands? That would make no sense at all. And the article states that nothing would happen against the will of the Falkland Islanders...and they wanted to remain a British colony.

@James Henderson But neither of those were invaded.

@James Henderson Hong Kong had originally been Chinese territory. The Falkland Islands however were never part of Argentina.

@James Henderson Well the Argies got all their timings wrong then didn't they!

@James Henderson The Argies caused it by invading the islands...but Thatcher ended it!

I am American and miss her too.

@@avecmoi9429 American too. Tho I often disagreed w her politics, I found her dynamic & unforgettable.

@@mckavitt13 I understand, agree.

@James Henderson No she was not-get your facts right-they were examining the different options but not of them would have happened without the CONSENT of the Islanders-why can't you lefties get your facts right-how old were you when this happened? Were you even here?

@James Henderson Gosh-you really are stupid-pick up a book and learn some history. Hong Kong was always China's-we leased it from them and the lease was up. China had made it clear it wanted it back or are you suggesting we should have tried to keep something that no longer belonged to us. The best we could do was to get the Chinese to agree to some basic standards which they have reneged on. If you require any further history lesson's pls let me know!

and cost the life of a thousand people. Was it worth it?

@@romainreuter9604 To defend British territory against a foreign invader? Yes, any cost would be worth it.

What do you mean in retrospect?-her position was right at the time and has been right ever since.

@@romainreuter9604 Well if Argentina had not invaded the Falklands there would have been no loss of life, so you need to lay the blame at Argentina's door not Thatcher's.

WOuld the USA accept the invasion of Hawaii?

He enlisted as a recruit into the Brigade of Gurkhas in 1976, and was sworn in as a Rifleman in the Seventh Duke of Edinburgh's Own Gurkha Rifles on 16 August 1977. His higher than normal educational record meant that he was destined for a career in the Signal Platoon where he made steady progress achieving his Standard Class II Regimental Signallers qualification, and promotion to Lance Corporal. On the 24 June 1982 Lance Corporal Limbu was ordered, along with members of his adopted Rifle Company (D Company) to fill in the Argentine trenches surrounding Pradera del Ganso (Goose Green). Whilst removing earth from a forward parapit his spade struck what was believed to be an unexploded British grenade. The resultant explosion killed him instantly. He was the only fatality suffered by the Regiment during the war, and his South Atlantic Medal was issued to his father: 21146803 WO1 Deoman Limbu, ex 1/7 Gurkha Rifles. His grave number is C61A. i743.photobucket.com/albums/xx73/AJAB62/gurkhas3_zpsxnvkyhit.jpg RFA Sir Tristram 24.- Swi Kami Yeung Sailor RFA 25.- Sik Chee Yu Bosun RFAr

271.- Surname: JONES Christopher A Rank: Sapper Battalion Ship or Squadron: 59 Independent Commando Squadron atatched to 2 Parachute Regiment Service: Royal Engineers Date of Death: 11 June 1982 Manner of Death: Killed in action on Two Sisters Place of residence: Cinderford County or Country: Gloucestershire www.roll-of-honour.com/cgi-bin/falklands.cgi 272.- Capt M Selfridge (Posthumous) www.paradata.org.uk/article/falklands-campaign-gallantry-awards www.paradata.org.uk/people/matthew-r-selfridge Name: Mr Eoin Selfridge - From: Dunfermline I was based at RAF Leuchars at the time of the war and was kept busy moving kit and troops south. My older brother was with Patrol Company 3 Para and as I was getting married at the time he was unable to attend (he only had to say he did not want to come!). We were one of the lucky families as he made it home. However 10 days later at West on Green he was killed in a Para Jump. We were unable to talk to him about what happened while away, all I do know is he and his team worked a lot by themselves and he was awarded MID for this work and I still to this day feel that award was for them all (but we all know how the system works). When we got his P / effects back we found slips for films to be printed but were unable to find what shop they were taken to. In 83 I was sent to the Falklands, while there I got the chance to go to Mtn Longdon to see for myself what these guys had to do. My tour helped me to explain to Mum & Dad the lay of the land. I was hoping if anyone knew my Brother Capt Matt Selfridge 3 Para and if they have any photos that they would not mind sharing. I am hoping find photos of him to do a family tree for my Father as I have photos of him in Kenya and Malaya and of myself in the Gulf 91 If anyone can help I would be grateful. veterans-families-radio.weebly.com/falklands-roll-of-honour.html

The American Government helped the Argentine Junta get into power in the first place.

Of course State Department was divided. Argentina Junta expelled communist fighter from Argentina was a big US Ally

Kissenger and America worked with loads of brutal dictatorships.

Absolutely!

No we don't

​@@polarisnorth4875I don't understand how she is so hated but so beloved.....I mean not dealing with Henry kissinger is big green flag in my book..... I heard Britain was going into madness so of course the working class had to work the most.....don't they always work the most, good times or the bad times?

UK not England

I feel guilty I mindless hated her growing up because of the media but having learned more i really respect her and regret

​@@mattoniy2840can you help me understand why so many people say she starved millions of British but took care of the British not in GB? Idk doesn't make much sense to me. How can she be so loved and so hatedM

I agree & I'm American.

Dude it's kissinger.....no American likes him , well, that's truly American

That sounds like a good idea to me.

@James Henderson Because the majority of the population of Northern Ireland wish to British and remain in the United Kingdom.. Similar to the population of the Falkland islands........ Next question please

@James Henderson The majority of people in Northern Ireland want to remain in the UK.

argentinian spotted

Lol, doesn't detract from the truth of the statement.

Not really because the people of the Falklands voted to remain British. So the people's vote should be respected.

Do you have the figure of an Olympic diver?

Thank you for fighting for the Falklands right to remain British.

A lot of people have dinner together for years so what?

With Jimmy Savile?​@@kevindare3113

NO

Argentina indigenous.

never

Give back the territory you stole from Paraguay....

Argentina didn't even exist when we first set foot on the Falklands, just because it's close to the mainland doesn't mean it's yours. You tried to take it and failed miserably, even the islanders don't want to be under your flag so give it up it's pathetic. 🇬🇧

@@charlesharper2357 I am Argentine and I think you should read more and stop watching you tube.
