Not a great moment in UK/USA relations. The fact that our main ally treated a military dictatorship that had attacked us as an equal negotiating partner annoyed many people, thank God Reagan came to his senses!
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.
The Falkland Islanders did not want to be Argentinian and that is why Thatcher sent the taskforce to reclaim the Islands. She was right not to compromise...and why should she as Argentina was the aggresor not Great Britain.
@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!
That is why she was Britains greatest peace time leader. A great hero with the courage of a thousand men and it is why we will never forget her.
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 tell me why she should have compromised, the population on the islands were British and still are British. End of story
She needed to win for her election campaign which started when she sold Argentina MOD Maps of the South Atlantic. Wake up Dorothy.
He gave them the USS Phoenix which was renamed Begrano and thank God we sank it.

Gurkha Rifles
22.- Corporal Krishnakumar Rai pbs.twimg.com/media/DqS7rQXXgAEdEDd.jpg:large
23.- Budhaaparsad Limbu was born in the village of Sakhewa in the eastern hills of Nepal on 25 October 1958.
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.

272.- Capt M Selfridge (Posthumous)
www.paradata.org.uk/article/falklands-campaign-gallantry-awards

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.

In retrospect, her position was the right one.
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?
Good for her.
Even the smallest speck of an island is important today...e.g. Diego Garcia...and Lady Thacher understood it too well in her prescient way.
"Compromising" on the Falklands? It's a chain of islands with a small population of very English people. It's either democratic, with ties to the UK, or a dictatorship, ruled over by an authoritarian regime in Argentina. Either Kissinger and those who agreed with at the time are stupid, almost beyond belief, or they tilt toward dictatorships.
Anyone familiar with the diplomatic mindset, here and abroad, knows that the answer to that stupid v. dictatorship question is probably "both." Just a few years later our State Department did its best to kill Reagan's "tear down this wall" remarks.
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.
England needs a new Thatcher.
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
Kissinger was born in May 1923 and Margaret Thatcher in October 1925.
Sure, I disagree with a lot of Thatcherism, but Thatcher herself will always have my respect. She is mighty.
Kissinger, despite his obvious intelligence, is a war criminal.
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
The audacity of Americans to be divided on the Falklands War, British territory with British inhabitants being invaded by a foreign power, when they were invading every country around the world that MIGHT pose a threat to their capitalist empire (including Grenada, a member of the British Commonwealth).
I agree & I'm American.
Dude it's kissinger.....no American likes him , well, that's truly American
Nor should she have!
Our Governments were divided! What arrogance. Obviously it served the USA very well in some financial way if Britain were to back off. But hey, when Maggie said no that was probably the first time since 1945. Thank goodness Maggie stood up for exactness and fair play, and not our immature, I’m all right Jack, wealthy friends(?).
Really? Just listened to Dominic Sandbrook say on his podcast that Thatcher accepted a compromise twice, once when the task force was steaming south, and once when they retook South Georgia, but that Argentina declined it.
Bless 🇬🇧👍
I found something so curious in comments here. British and Argentinians are Allies here both dislike Henry
what a shame he outlived the Hitch
Would the US handd over Guam or Hawaii?
No? How intransigent!
No compromise with the Falklands or the IRA she was staunch
Henry was all for giving Jerusalem back to the Palestinians.
That sounds like a good idea to me.
Have the US ever won a war on their own?
Hey Kiss, Sometimes you don't compromise and that is the problem with the State Department, they seldom use their moral compass. People of character know what is important and they know right from wrong.
America was an ally of The UK but also an ally of Argentina, so, a very difficult position for America to have found itself!
Not really because the people of the Falklands voted to remain British. So the people's vote should be respected.
It wouldn’t be a long war next time, some submarines and a type 45 destroyer would be enough.
Argentina is near the Falkland Islands, therefore Argentina belongs to the Falkland Islands. Meanwile Malaysia is planning to invade Singapore because it is nearby.
@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.
Ronny was there for her!
Henry needs to watch his calorie intake.
Do you have the figure of an Olympic diver?
Rightly so Argentina invaded a part of Britain. They wouldn't leave do we had to kick them out. If I had to I would go down and fight again.
Thank you for fighting for the Falklands right to remain British.
Wo was our real enemy - Argentina or USA?
Nice man
Apartheid's best friends. Ronnie Reagan and Maggie Thatcher.
She was GREAT in every sense of the word.
Dear Old Ronald Regan kept secrets from Thatcher !!!
Justice for general Schneider .
Dr. Death
Yeah, because southamerican dictatorships we're sponsored by this guy.
Kissinger... a global plague...
Outlived Ford, Nixon, LBJ, Reagan, Bush, and is still alive today 96. Strong and opinionated and as a security advisor quite clever and astute.
Would the US defend Hawaii if it was invaded?
Nice story but not facutally correct. Thatcher's position moved dramtically bertween 2 April nd mid-May. She had been prepared to accept Peruvian peace plan with very significant concessions on sovereignty but Arg rejected it. As per Vernon Bogdanor ruclips.net/video/a9bWwF7OqLg/видео.html
This guy was real president not regan
0.46.. I saw her for tea.. funnily enough, I'm sitting here watching this clip with a cup of tea! Clearly it really is a British thing lol..
Chris in London..
Oh and if you want to know how to make a proper cup of tea? Just ask below... :0l
Didn’t Britain violate the monroe doctorine by moving in on the falklands?
NO
Thatcher and Jimmy Savile had a lot in common, they both had it in for minors , funny they had Christmass dinner together for over 10 years , funny how some people forget facts isn't it eh ? .
A lot of people have dinner together for years so what?
With Jimmy Savile?@@kevindare3113
oh my GOD Henry Kissinger still alive your iron lady is dead
Malvinas Argentinas
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.
Latin American countries need to diversify military Alliance. With china . India Russia.
USA UK just are the old friends looking on how to keep safe the own beacon for themselves
