Earlier, a leaked Pentagon email had set out options for the US to punish Nato allies for refusing to join US-Israeli strikes against Iran.

Lol Argentina is crumbling even after the Trump bailout because all that money went straight into their oligarchs pockets and none made it to the actual economy.
it went straight to Milei and Bassinets friends who made terrible investments in the coutnry.
The last time European allies refused to join an American war in the Middle East, it was just before the US invasion of Iraq.
I’d say that the way that turned out should have been a warning: going to war against the opinion of European allies is a terrible idea, but I guess America likes to learn by repetition, even of mistakes.
Being from the UK I actually support Nuking them if they try it again, the Falklands are all British Citizens and they voted on it fairly, let them revote if they like.
Also Falklands were British long before Argentina even existed as a Country.
There’s no need for nuclear weapons at all. The Argentine military barely exists and the government can be dealt with by the planes now permanently stationed on the islands.
I’m not sure ‘self-determination’ really comes into it when the British state is paying them to be there lol
Bit extreme. Being from the UK I couldn’t give a shit one way or another which stupid authoritarian government gets custody of the islands and while I am sure the people who live on them do care and presumably the government does a bit, all it all I suspect the vast majority of ppl here would see it as a total shrugfest either way.
I don’t think it is extreme they would have attacked Britain twice, there need to be severe consequences for that and a message needs sent.
We should have done it the first time in my opinion.
Then again it won’t happen because even the Typhoons stationed there would be more than enough.
You don’t think its extreme to set off a nuke over some piddly islands with probs more sheep than people in the South Atlantic? Are you daft?
Not if attacked no I don’t, why pay billions to have them if you aren’t going to make an example. Seems the world’s not taking Britain seriously thanks to Trump.
I think using it would make the world realise just how dangerous these things are and a lot of things would get fixed after. Would be a nice little message to both Putin and others as a bonus.
You sound completely unhinged.
What would be unhinged would be needing to send troops there yet again, it’s not the UK’s fault if Argentina didn’t learnt it’s lesson the first time.
The people on the Falklands are as British as the people living in London.
If they get attacked again Britain should respond with full force and prevent a third time ever happening.
Its stupid to kill people at all over a pointless territorial dispute. Its UNHINGED to suggest killing cities worth of civillians with a nuke because of beef between their authoritarian admins.
