And they're already engaged in Iraq, an operation taking up most of their strategic transport capability. I'm of the opinion that the Argentinians could very well succeed in taking the islands and keeping them. The RN capability is adequate to prevent that, and it would be suicidal to try. Politically it would be a disaster for Blair either way, so he will take steps to prevent anything ever happening. -- Jim Watt http://www.gibnet.com
